Is Kanye a top 10 rapper of all-time?

Well for starters Prince is still alive champ.  If you don't think or know that he puts on a great show, just ask all of the grown and mature attendees from the Essence Festival this year. Also, if you want someone a bit more "current" in regards to the past decade, a better response would be Justin Timberlake. 

Im not a big prince fan but I'm pretty sure he puts on a show. You got a point with justin.

Two people I would of loved to see perform is Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley
 
Yes folks the top 5 all time! Got jay, ye, em/nas, biggie, pac in no particular order. Think i hit it. Flame bait thread. Lol
 
not in my book. i could understand his fans saying yes but he makes a lot of music i almost cant stand. cool that he makes music thats outside the box but a lot of it just doesnt sound good to me.
 
Dudes really believe there were no all time greats before the early 90's?

When you are talking "all time" you are talking about the HISTORY of rap.

If you don't know the history, you shouldn't be talking about it.
i agree. a lot of rap fans are not even qualified to answer top anything mc/rapper. at the same time everybody is entitled to a opinion. not a informed or educated opinion, but a opinion none the less
 
:x @ this thread.

Dudes talking about 808s in a damn rap topic.

You hardcore Kanye fans are not hip hop fans at this point. Just admit. If you were you wouldn't be doing this. Want talk all this other **** about what he's good at but ignore the point.
 
As big if a kanye fan I am, you're trolling if you call kanye a top 10 rapper. The ***** has ghostwriter for Pete sake
 
Lol people get so tight on here anytime kanye is mentioned in a positive light. Musically kanye is better than your favorite rapper deal with it.
 
No kanye album is a top 10 hip hop album of all time and I'm a big Ye fan :lol:
Some of you have disregarded decades of art and compare Ye to the **** that's came out since he's been around and put him on this crazy pedestal. He has an amazing ear for sound and that's it. He doesn't write most his **** and has had multiple "co-producers" on a lot of his work since he started rapping.
I've enjoyed literally all his albums but 808s but I'm not going to say he's this groundbreaking, all time musician when there's artists like Prince and the like around.

I'd bring the RZA into this discussion but I already know it'll just be a "flame RZA's flow" session. Check the credentials though.

stopped reading right there.

Im no hardcore Ye fan, but an argument could be made that one of his albums can enter the top 10.

Probably CD, LR, or MBDTF.

I should clarify a b it on MBDTF. The argument could be made, but it will not be as strong as the other two albums due to the impact the others had in the mainstream etc...

The biggest one is probably CD seeing how it was a breath of fresh air when it came out and it was consistent as well...

Yeah a lot of you guys in here have been blinded by the hype. All eyez on me, Only built 4 Cuban Linx, Life After Death, Aquemini, illmatic, those are top 10 hip hop albums.

I hate how kanye has become this worshipped figure who can do no wrong. I remember a time saying kanye was my favorite rapper and people were like "man he's gay" :lol: now everyone ties flannels around their waist and wears leather tank tops and I can't even take kanye that serious anymore. I'll beat the dead horse but we need the old 'ye back. The one that nobody tried to emulate and put on a pedestal
