Video: DJ Quik Trashes "The Life Of Pablo" & Kanye.. "His Celebrity Supersedes His Talent Right"

[Built 4 cuban linx]

Not just the writers thing that changed. around college/late reg era. dude was trying his hardest to anyone that would listen that he was more than just dope beats, that he could actually rap also. so those albums are actually going to have him put effort in those lyrics, when hes around the talent that he was with roca fella( collabs with jay, talib, common, freeway, mos def, camron, nas, etc lyricist basically). kinda had to keep up, now who exactly is he keeping up with and trying to prove something to? I cant imagine in 2004, Kanye giving this weak ass album to dame and jay trying to prove he can rap, probably wouldve told kanye for the hundredth time, "we just want your beats" right after that bleached asshole line smh. he wouldve never handed this bullshit in

instead of having people around him that keep it real and know talent to tell him "your lyrics are trash my nigga" like dame, it seems like he around bums and yes men that dont know how to pen atleast a 16. R&B niggas and a weak ass knock off of another wack ass nigga. on TLOP the best song on the album were he spits his hardest is a song with kendrick, I wonder why.

what quik said has been the case for years now...tlop is the first kanye album i didn't even check for and have no interest in hearing after that last couple dud's he's released

 

[R.D.]

Kanye is at a level of consciousness a hater nigga will never reach

Bless the Unenlightened

Look at all the Kanye haters in here cosigning this shit. Let Ye be Ye and DJ Quik you be you. What do you want to make the same album over and over again. The guy constantly reinvents his music to something completely different and gets people talking. Quik just stick to doing whatever it is you doing now which isn't much except getting on some dungeon radio program hatin

I'm a kanye fan and if niggas wanted him to make the same album over and over, people wouldn't like graduation and twisted fantasy. Your post is flawed as hell, we just want him to make GOOD MUSIC with good lyrics cause he's capable of doing that

 

[tompetrez3]

Now how many of y'all jigga warriors are going to admit y'all husband leeched Kanye creativity with BP3 and WTT while Kanye was at peak of his career saleswise and musically??

 

[StoneColdMikey]

i was just listening and mixing the Life of Pablo last night...still jams to me

Yeah I like it to me but hey people have other options can't knock em for that.

 

[usmarin3]

I fuck with Quik, but i thought LOFP is a dope album. That's

MBTDF - classic

Yesus- Medicore

Life of Pablo - dope

Kanye sets the bar so high niggas be on some unrealistic shit.

 

[YapatnaJB]

He said him & Problem dropping a ep together

 

[usmarin3]

So let me ask ya'll a question. What would ya'll like to see Kanye do artistically?

 

[Logic Last]

I have no issue with being critical of Kanye's music but what was the point of the Kardashian rant? The nikka was a huge celebrity before Kim.

 

[lamontbdc]

Pablo has bout 3 good songs

 

[lamontbdc]

So let me ask ya'll a question. What would ya'll like to see Kanye do artistically?

shit too subjective to really answer this. I mean you think TLOP is a dope album and I like 3 songs. Kinda hard to say what direction i want him to go. Ok I can say I wish he would scrap all singing and all use of the autotune. I just want his music to be dope. Last 2 albums been pure trash

On the flip side Quik has dropped some mediocre shit himself the last few years.

 

[R.D.]

So let me ask ya'll a question. What would ya'll like to see Kanye do artistically?

Make college dropout again but not the same, just the same

Talk about Chicago some more even though he talked about it before we knew a chief keef

Talk about college some more even though we hate when Cole do it

Talk about his current life with the college dropout feel....don't do anything else, just give us some college dropout/late registration music...yeah he probably got the best discography in hip hop but we want more...just do music, we don't care if he wanna do other stuff...rap til he 60

 

[Logic Last]

Props to quik for speaking his mind. Too many of these rappers be in interviews talking about the sad state of hiphop then wanna keep it politically correct and mention everyone thats popular when they get asked who they listen to

I disagree. If Quik is right when he says the fans aren't stupid then Kanye will fall off if his music isn't up to par. It's that simple

There's fans (me included) that have noted his music diminishing quality wise; he still has traces of brilliance here and there but he was once an innovator, pushing boundaries..

Now he's a copycat following trends eg was that bullshit ass 'Facts' dissing Nike. Song was damn awful

Kanye is making the music he considers good music. Some fans are gonna grow with you and some aren't. His "real''ity is not the same as yours, so how can you say his music isn't real.
