as far as the video...

the video is good, the song is unique and the video manages to be creative w/ out being completely fuckin wierd like most things that are deemed "creative" nowadays.

I mean, the video's creative w/ thick females, what's not to like?

There are alot of people who are quick to judge a song, just cuz it has a party beat, but there is a difference between a good party song and Garbage, and more than half the music thats concidered party muzik right now is Garbage.......

name some good party muzik
hmmmm........really, i dont like anything out at the moment thats considered "party muzik" Jay Z usually comes out with dope stuff though, even if it is jiggy, his rhymes are dope, and lets see, the LL song is better than most of the radio stuff out at the moment, old snoop dogg stuff(mostly from doggy style), um.... Ludacris is cool, OutKast and................damn this is harder than i thought.........how about i give you a list of every thing thats garbage, like Chingy, Ti, Lil John, the YinYang twins, mase, puffy, nelly, Lil wayne, juvenile, Ja Rule, 50cent, G unit, bonecrusher, black eyed peas, Birdman, and lil Flip.....and any other rapper with gold teeth.......this is just everyone i can think of off the top. Every rapper i mentioned has weak lyrics, and basically just gets on my damn nerves...and for the most part their synth beats are shitty and sound like they were factory programmed.

Exactly...The dude has made a fair few nice beats, but theres a lotta people out there that are better than him that aint getting as much love... And IMO, his rapping skills are fairly non existant....

THATS WHAT IM SAYING. HE CANT EVEN RAP. NO EXCUSES. HE COULD PLAY IT OFF BEFORE LIKE HIS JAW GOT REWIRED, BUT NOW THERES NO EXCUSE. ALL HIS RAPS ARE EMPTY AND THE FLOW IS NOT LOGICAL AT ALL.

haha. so, someone else wrote jesus walks?

We did some investigating on this Kanye West ghostwriting thing and it’s basically bogus. Note to petitioners: ITS NOT GHOSTWRITING IF THE PERSON GETS CREDIT. Rhymefest, dude that co-wrote “Jesus Walks,’ is credited on The College Dropout, he's getting a Grammy if Kanye wins and he’s also an artist on J Records. Now if there is some problems beyond that, let us know.

so it isnt "ghostwriting", but i wonder who wrote what, exactly?

all u people hatin on kanye.... Y?!?!?!
im reading posts sayin he aint got no flow, he cant rhyme, his flow aint logical... blablabla...
fact is... he did something different.. annnnd guess what.. all u haters... have heard it, or else u wudnt have anything to talk about and isnt that what music is all about? getting your music and message to people... as many people as possible???... and i doubt kanye gives two shits whether u like what he does or not..... ... if any of u got the chance to do what kanye did (doing) ud jump on it...if not, theres sumthin wrong with u.
change in style in hip hop is what keeps it going...but no one expects u to like it, just respect it.
so i dunno
but IMO i think he's doin somethin right...

oh brother..... not everyone likes the guy. a lot of people- myself included- do NOT care for his rapping.

no, i dont respect it either to be honest. if i got the chance to do what kanye did, success-wise, of course i would, but thats a bit of a misplaced statement- nobody is calling the guy a sellout or anything like that, people are saying they arent fans of his rapping. nobody is "hating" because he is succesful, i mean yeah he ahs made his little splash and whatnot, and great for him.....

oh yeah, obviously he cares A LOT auobt whether somebody likes him, i mean he gets his panties all twisted if people dont swoon over his album, he got great reviews but was VERY heated that it wasnt recognized universally as this classic masterpiece..... he got heated when he lost the best new artist award too... i think that shows that he cares a little TOO much about people liking him.

I've thought the samething, not that I'm on either side, like him/hate him. I think he's different and the same. I think he puts out mix messages like 2pac, but I think that's better than having the same type negative messages over and over on different tracks. This thread has been around for along time, and this is my first time actually coming to it. After seeing it has 177 posts and still counting, I figured I'd visit the last posts of the thread and see just why are people still making fuss or talking about Kayne West. This thread is childish and should be deleted.

the thread is necessary, because there were new kanye threads popping up every few hours and obviously it is still a topic. how is it childish? everyone has an opinion on the subject, just like every other thread....

"hes not worthy of a thread"?

uh.... that makes ZERO SENSE on a message board. i mean... i could say...

ok, well, FL is a good program, but it doesnt deserve its own thread.
the mpd 16 is a great conroller for mpc fiends, but it doesnt deserve is own thread.
we have a thread about the wu tang engineer for crying out loud.

the fact is kanye west is a contreversial figure and dropped an album many considered a landmark, and thus things of that type of significance and interest certainly warrant a thread- love him or hate him.

its... a message board... a hip hop production message board... kanye is a producer...the topic is in the lounge...

how does this not warrant a thread?
