kanye’s smart as fuck

he doesn’t even mention fiddy! he wan the people to know he on another level now and thus fiddy is no more the man to beat

I can see where Kanye is comming from. But all in all Justin’s a singer and Kanye is rapper so there is a gap.

in this 9/11 chess game Kanye is leading the race
let’s see if the numbers wil follow.

I go for Ye!

“I’d rather be hated for what I am than loved for what I’m not.”

Ye’s got the game all figured.

LOLOLOLOL JUSTIN IS HIS COMPETITION?
WHAT ARE THEY COMPETING FOR,THE TIGHTEST PANTS AWARDS?FUCK THOSE HOMOS

CURTIS SEPT 11,OVER 25 MILLION ALBUMS SOLD IN 3 YEARS,G-G-G-G-G-G-UNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#6 G-UNIT IS DONE, GO BUY MOBB DEEP, L. BANKS, BUCK, CAUSE NONE OF THEM COULD GO GOLD LOL.

realest talk:

“”I feel like my lyrics are, if not THE, then equal to, the realest lyrics out,” he says. “I connected with so many people without talkin’ about guns and drugs. … It’s harder to go to work 365 days than shoot a person in one day.”

Is kanye is smoking crack?Man, i’m sick of hearing him talk, he just feeling himself way too much as of late. I like old modest Kanye, i don’t know who is this louie purse holding dude is.Stick to making good music …no more interview please.You can’t compare Prince and Justin.You can’t even put him with Michael. Justin makes good shit… but does anybody remember that this nigga was in NSNYC (whatever way you spell it).He was a joke like 4 years ago. Now you put in the same place as the King of pop and Prince.I know Michael got his issues but forget that for one second and remember how times hit this man made classics.Even with a fucked up future you can’t forget Michael past or Prince.

I am feeling what Kanye is saying. Dood tours with U2 and ROLLING STONES, he is on another level and still hip hop as fuk!!! Kanye a living legend!

lol at # 8 hahahahah u a sucka home kanye west represents those weird people in the world that are in college and university that come frm a good home his music does not coincide and has nuthing to do with REAL struggle and he realizes that but i give it to kanye for actually being who he is and thats a safe nigga and nobody has done that before in the game. Jay-Z and Dame said it too they didnt believe in kanye at first because he’s not a street nigga he comes frm a good home being on the other side of the fence frm ppl like myself that are in hood and their hasnt been a voice for those type of ppl in hiphop on a national level thats why kanye appeals he’s a exact opposite version of 50 Cent and thats why i can’t take nuttin frm kanye cause he’s speakin his real like safe nigga real but as far as REALITY he doesnt stand a chance against 50 snoop said it first “gangsta’s make the world go round” you just gotta figure out what type of dude u are, gangsta or gay lool CURTISSS SEPT 11TH str8 up nigga

@ Yoda

“West realizes his flamboyant style and less-than-humble public behavior — like throwing fits over not winning music awards — could hinder his chances for success.

“… When people come up to you like, `That was really good,’ you’re supposed to play stupid, like, `Wow, you really think so?”‘

-WEST

^^^^^^^^^^Just because I love proving my point, then reinforcing it…This quote from YE is JUST FOR YOU. YOU were TRYING to be the VOICE OF REASON on the HUMBLENESS ACT, I STATED KANYE WAS PLAYING, by ramblimg on about your wrong, bullshit opinion. My #1 pet peave is when people with a bit sense (meaning, if you seemed ignorant I wouldn’t have responded) TRY to prove me wrong and deteriorate my knowledge on things, WHEN IN FACT, I KNOW THEY ARE WRONG…which led me not to forget our debate…till now…And with the above stated quote the case can be closed.

As far as YE goes, he’s playing chess with these cats, and like the aforementioned bloggers stated he got the game all figured out…YE on another level as far as the intelligence factor/spectrum in the way he precisely intertwines his rythmic beats into his lyrics…If you not feeling his music it’s because the shit is not for the simple minded and it’s not for “YOU ALL” to understand. Shit just goes over all of your heads that all…

Great post…

…and, one love to Chi Cities, Juicy & Git It Boy

“But I am the truth. I’d rather be hated for what I am than loved for what I’m not.”

Kanye aint ever outsell 50, how he gonna say its only he and Justin when Kanye aint even the hottest seller in his rap genre?

Kanye is a smart dude…but everything he’s sayin is gonna fly over tha head of any 50cent fan HAHHAHA

KANYE IS A BITCH HE IS GETTIN ANNOYIN HE IS WAY TO BIG HEADED TO BE JUST AN OK RAPPER,HE MADE DA DUMBEST COMPARISONS…KANYE TRIES TO ROLL WIT DA WHITE CROWD TO SELL MORE RECORD 50 JUST DONT GIVE A FUCK HAS MILLIONS OF HATERS AND STILL OUTSELLS EVERYONE KANYE IS TRYIN TO BE TO MATURE FOR HIS OWN GOOB BUT JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO DIS FAGGOT WAS CRYIN THROWIN A TENTRUM TANTRUM CUZ HE DIDNT WIN A FUCKIN AWARD I MEAN GROW UP U UGLY ASS CHIPMUNK LOOKIN NIGGA KANYE IS REAL ABOUT BEIN A SQUARE ONLY CUZ HE CANT EVEN ALMOST PASS AS A REAL HOOD NIGGA IF KANYE IS REAL THEN 50 IS TO CUZ 50 WILL TELL U AND DOES HE LOVES DA SPOTLITE AND HE IS IN IT FOR DA MONEY….

#7…you’re acting like there’s tons of rappers going gold right now. Nobody’s movin units, welcome to 2007.

But it’s retarded for him to really sincerely think Justin Timberlake is his biggest competition, and then to compare that rivalry to Prince and MiJac’s is…eh. You know 50 has owned rap as far as sales are concerned…a jab is a jab doe.

Lol how you going say JT is your comp. You a rapper atlest name another rapper. JT is corny why would you compare yourself to someone who doesn’t even write there own music atlest pick a singer who write there on music. Robin Thicke better than JT. Ye you selling ya self short with this one.

look at dem 50cent fans like “WTF DAT NIGGA JUST SAY??!HE SAY JUSTIN IS A RAP STAR??!”

HA! dumbass niggas

co-sign wit dat homie thats the truth right there

#9 u say that he need to go back to being modest kanye? when the fuck was that he was all ways arrogant and all way louis v. all day aint nuthin change.

#11 how does kanye represent for the people in college wit a debut called college dropout, he reps for people that dont feel u need college to be a success, he aint grow up wit mommy and daddy 2gether, there were in 2 different states , different coast, which is better than up here in nyc where niggas pops lives in the bx and still cant speak to him

and he’s sayin that rappers cant compete wit him no more he’s so big he only competes wit megastars like justin, and world wide music. smoke a spliff and enlighten youself my brotha

just cuz i have a gun dont mean i’m ready to catch a body, and just cuz i catch a body dont mean i’m ready to do a bid. just cuz we from the hood dont mean we cant think ahead. yea we got a bad deal but i’m tired of xcuses. i can listen to kanye cuz he doesnt represent my life, he reps the life i wish i grew up in. i dont listen to 50 becuz he reps my life. and i heard that shit a million and one times, i get it, i’m a lowlife, i should spend the rest of my life doin juks and doin bids and havin babies. get the fuck outta here wit that shit. if i wanted to hear the same shit everyday i’d by the same fuckin album every day or play shit on repeat ya’ll niggas need to leave your block for just a day. then u would realize how shitty we live and how stupid we are for xcepting it

so kanye is saying he’s a singer now? lol man wtf i dont give a fuk…

GRADUATION IN STORES SEPTEMBER 11th!!! THAT GOOOOOD MUSIC!!

kanye is too much.he deserves nothing of the sort. 50 is a bigger star. he is no competition for 50.

naw, you need to lay off the weed and read a book or sumthin.
how u gonna co-sign kanye on that ish he’s peddling?
kanye cant rap within the english language. WTF is apologin?
to me, kanye will always be a producer who raps PERIOD. the general public
eats up whatever these celebrities feed ya’ll. dont get caught up in their hype and marketing campaign.

kanye is too much.he deserves nothing of the sort. 50 is a bigger star.

#11 “those weird people in the world that are in college and university that come frm a good home”

struggle is never a choice stupid.
music talks to everybody and can give different perspectives.
Jay wouldn’t be where he is if only stree nigga felt him in the first place.
Kanye never said he the voice of da street but he definitly is a black voice
that stands for the black community. u gotta respect that.
i think he great at what he does: music.
i think people should not take what he says in his itw too sriously. He on a mission too: Pimp The Game! as well s Fif is

co-sign #21. the king

50 sold more than JT and kanye put together so whoever is co-signing is blind and stupid, and these are the facts

Remember, Usher’s last album sold twice as many records, and had a #1 song for 58% of that year.

Rascal Flats and Catherine McPhee sold more than Timberlake.

yall keep talking about he tour wit U2 and rolling stone what the hell does that have to do with hip-hop, 50 headline his own damn overseas tour 50 a boss kanye a foot soldier

lol 50 aint a boss, dr. dre and jimmy iovine are the BOSSES nigga. as far as headlining a tour overseas, kanye and hov has done that 2 so again ur argument holds no weight.

p.s. why u still naming urself after a gay man LOLOL

as far as that kanye quote i sorta get it but theyre in 2 different genre’s of music so there’s a gap

u kno wut forget it, u kno ur a closet weezy fan hahaa

gay men think alike

@King I ain’t taking nothing back why. He only said that Louie V shit in a couple of lines his on first album. It was more like wishful thinking then actually living it.During the first two albums he was about the struggle. Now he wearing purses like it is kool. Na nigga ain’t feeling that. He looking to go pop, you can’t tell by his tone. Every artist has a choice to make when they hit a certain level. Whether to cross over or to remain the same.You can tell the way by the way he saying Justin is his biggest comp. Justin and him aren’t even in the same league. Trust me , Justin goes to MTV call swat for his protection . He goes he just shut down time square for a couple of hours…Huge Difference.

As for people thinking Kanye is the smartest person in the world. Stop trying to look intelligent by agreeing with him. You sound pretty stupid doing that. Yes , we should understand that working a 9 to 5 is harder then hustling and shooting people. But in all reality sometimes in life there is no choice.If Kanye was really in touch with the people he would know that. The economy is at a low right now for oblivious in America. It like he became rich and stop to think about times when he wasn’t wearing Louie V and wasn’t eating every night.

The problem with Kanye and 50 fans. You dealing with two different worlds. Ye part is more of the suburb feel. 50 more like the corner bodega feel. They both have there struggles. Ain’t no struggle harder then the other if you measure it up.It all part of the same game.Just different rules…at this point. I can’t relate to Ye real now cause he seems like he wants the pop appeal which is fine for him .At the level of his career he deserves it. Common is more appealing to hood cause he knows there is things needed to be done.Ye isn’t right nor wrong it just how you take the words. I don’t feel’em he seems in a way he forgot about the struggle that made him.Now he is smelling himself a little too much.From the last two albums did start all this kinda Controversy…NO. He like three albums strong counting this one and now he is saying “I’m the best Mc alive” . All we know about him is that he struggle going to college,he made beats for jayz “Blueprint” and a couple other things.To me that ain’t enough.

WHY DO YALL KEEP SAYING 50 IS FOR THE HOOD. WHAT HOOD? AYO TECHNOLOGY, AMUSEMENT PARK, FOLLOW MY LEAD, GET THE FUC OUTTA HERE. KANYE TALKS ABOUT REAL PEOPLE WIT ISSUES, HE SAYING “WAIT TILL I GET MY MONEY RIGHT”, “WHATEVA DON’T KILL ME, MAKES ME STRONGER”, “EVERYTHING IM NOT MAKES ME EVERYTHING I AM”. THATS TRUE SHYT THAT THE HARDEST NIGGA ON THE STREET CAN FEEL. KANYE IS FOR EVERYBODY EXCEPT IGNORANT PEOPLE., I.E.-50 FANS.(MOST 50 FANS PROBABLY WONT GET ANYTHING I JUST SAID)

no doubt #33 i hear u, i dont agree completely but i hear you. i dont think he’s tryin to go pop cuz he aint leaving hip hop behind, if he aint make no more hard bangers than i could say that, but wit cant tell me nuthin, he cant be considered hip hop, thats for the hood and bangin harder than any 50 joint out now, stronger is for overseas pop radio which is a smart move if nuthin else. i fucks wit kanye cuz i listen to more than just lyrics, and whether he makes all his beats or not he chooses sum hard shit, when u high and driving up nostrand ave u feel that shit. lyrics wise he surprises me all day with the content of his rhymes. i fucks wit him cuz he aint like me…….the same way white people fuck wit 50. they like sumthin that gives them a window to the hood. and they listen and laugh at us niggas, we get money, but we rush to give it back.
meanwhile niggas like kanye feel tha same pain we all feel, and FUCK WHAT ANYBODY ELSE THINKS, I WILL 4EVER COP KANYE JUST FOR THAT GEORGE BUSH DOESNT CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE LINE. HURRICANE KATRINA STILL FUCKS ME UP AROUND THIS TIME OF YEAR, THAT WAS OUR 9/11. AND HE SENT THE FIRST SHOT

yo THE KING #35 thats real talk, kanye talks from the everyday person, which means from the hood to the mansions. We’re all regular people wit the same problems, just the money we have helps us in handling those problems in different ways. I think Kanye gives a pretty wide perspective.

@ ola 50 owns his own record lable and he makes way more than Dr.dre

yo weezy #37 u sound so fuckin stupid how can the dude that u work for make less than u. when u see that list of the top twenty hip hop cash kings, the only reason dre and eminem are even up there is from the money they get from 50 and g-unit. who’s the boss now?
“Nigga i’m a check writer/your royalty reciever.”

i know that aint 50 but still sounds hot

50 owns a record label and so does every other rapper.

dr. dre and eminem make more money off 50’s music then 50 does. this is the same that jay-z and LA Reid make more money off of kanye’s music. kanye makes all his money from producing records 4 ppl and w/e shit he does lol

50 makes his money from his random business. he has 2 cuz em, dre, and jimmy make tons more off his music then he does so he has to do stuff outside music to make his bread. i mean dr. dre and eminem DIDN’T DO SHIT last year. they jus let 50 do all the work and get their money off him (worker bee). THAT’S BEING A BOSS.

50 and kanye have done well 4 themselves but neither of them are TRUE BOSSES

waaaay 2 many 50 cent and kanye stans in here…SMH @ all of u actually debating over this…sep.11 will be a day 2 say who beat who lets jus sit back and wait 4 it

i was listening to the kanye track on hip hop is dead a minute ago. kanye got this one in the bag homie lol his beats are too ill. its a long shot that he’ll beat 50 in sales, but his album will be better. im bout to listen to the dont forget em track that he did on consequence album right now damn kanye ill

Cot damn, Mi Mi. I hadn’t even posted in here and you were already dedicating something to me. There’s no point in going back and forth, you’re repeating yourself. How long you been holding that grudge? A lot of artists say contradicting things, I haven’t seen a humble act from Kanye since he got in the game. Maybe that’s just me! If that’s your pet peeve, deal with it. Ain’t nobody dickridin over here. If Kanye’s a humble rapper, he’s the first I’ve ever seen. I don’t need you showing me meaningless quotes to prove a point that in my mind isn’t correct. I’ll agree to disagree and leave it at that.

BTW, I like ‘Ye’s music, so I don’t see why you’re on it like that. I will say there’s nothing exceptionally intellectual about his music, because if that were the case he wouldn’t sell what he does. General public don’t fuck with intellect…ask around.

Oh my god Nyallday… was you drop on your head as baby or the chronic finally dissolved your brain cells?I bet you one of those little dudes that believe 50 runs with the cops and blah,blah. Youngin give it a rest i’m sick of hearing 50 ain’t from the hood.He is from southside Jamaica Queens . I be around there time to time and if that shit ain’t the hood then i don’t what is.Yall acting like yall would call 50 pussy to his face.Which i doubt anybody on here would do. Anyways just cause he got a couple of club hits. You can earse his past that what it is right? Every fucking rapper in the game made a damn club song.So every rappper ain’t real now right?

Get the fuck outta here

@King kool man we all got different opinion the situation. I’m glad someone with enough intelligences on here got the nerve to say/text a reply with common sense.

And OLA do your research, Curtis is making more than Dre right now. Dre don’t own him, if he wanted to he could leave this rap shit alone forever without another word. The dude is not trapped in anyone’s box.

as I read this article over and over again. i see 50s name not once. but yet every post has something about him. yall crack me up. anyways yea 50 made more money than dre but dre made most of his money if not all off 50.thats what i think OLA is saying.

And why folks acting like Ye aint for black people or the struggle no more. I bet he has atleast like 5 songs that are uplifting to our community but 50 wont. And he’s pop and all this bullshit. Just cause of Stronger

Keep Quiet Kanye

And Don’t EVER EVER EVER EVER Compare Yourself To Micheal Jackson Again..Your Not Even Tito Jackson An Just For That I’m Downloading Your Album

he didnt compare himself to mike.
he said him and justin are pushing each other like mike and prince did back in the day.

id rather hear a kanye west feat j timberlake song, than 50 cent feat j timberlake, anyday.

fuck it, leave both of them niggas off the track. just give me the timberlake song.

IM SO BORED WITH THIS DEBATE…. LET THAM RELEASE THE FUCKING ALBUMS AND THEN WE WILL SEE WHO IS THE WINNER! THEN EVERYONE CAN GET ALL HAPPY/UPSET OR WOTEVA. GETTING ALL EMOTIONAL AND SHIT WTF? INSTEAD OF ARGUING AND HATING MAKE SURE YOU GO COP UR CHOICE.. PROOVE WHOS BETTER THAT WAY.

Ye is Gay……nuff said….more he talks the more I dont like the kid……shut the fuck up and stick to making music

So7-4 the reason why his name is there. Is because Kanye is facing him 9/11 (which everybody on here will remind you about) to see who sell the most records.And he talking about Justin being comp.Also he threw some subminals at 50 during the interview that why his name is all over this blog.So to be correct this does have something to do with him. Kanye been talking shit for the last 3 weeks in every interviews.What chu think? People ain’t going to say 50 name…Yeah sure.

how is justin his compettion…

i’d say when it comes to radio play than yea cus on those kinda of radio stations that play all kinds of music you’re mainly going to here pop music or kanye west..so i guess what he means by that is cus timbaland and justin have become very popular for that category on the radio.

Kanye’s strange man how is that his competion he’s better than that he’s on the top mc list ther’s way more cometion there

he’s always saying something to keep yall talking KANYE ALL DAY!

@ I’ll fucking chris benoit these bitches!

that name is funny as hell lolol

Kanye West is heading for a fall saying his hottest rapper out expect Lil Wayne ? & only Justin Timberlake is in competition with you ? 9/11 can’t come soon enough Kanye West is bigging himself up but unlike 50 he can’t back it up Kanye West is overrated.

Kanye’s lyrics are cool
but he ain’t spittin the illest lyrics out by far
hes not even the best conscious rapper with all the bullshit he says sometimes

really listen to Can’t Tell Me Nothin’ and tell me that it all makes sense
fuck this nigga
i ain’t even gonna say buy Curtis 09.11.07

yo dubs i hear what u saying about kanye not being the most conscious rapper out. but thats what i like about him, because if u look at it, people like common, the roots, talib kweli,mos def, and other conscious rappers but they wont cop they albums. then people like the arrogant flossing i’m the shit rappers, but feel like they so arrogant u wont cop they album either.
i fuck wit him cuz he on both sides of the field, he raps conscious, he raps arrogant, he makes banging beats for the hard core rappers, the consious rappers, the arrogant rappers. he helps the whole hip-hop community. if it wasnt for him alot of rappers wouldnt have sold alot of records cuz he makes the beat and/or raps on their first single making it a banga. what part of hip-hop says wear the same shit for the last 5 years. 50 got money but he dress like me, no flash no guap, i dress like a regular dude all day long. but hip hop is about stayin fresh, fresher than the rest. 2 steps ahead of the game, since the 80’s hip hop stepped outside its own box to be fresh, why should it stop now?
