Brandon Collins it's probably my favourite kanye story lmao

It kinda shines more light on how messed up talib was actually even though I can put myself in his place and understand but damn let the man come out in a wheelchair, talib even have a song where he spits a metaphor that talks about crabs in a barrel and how when one tries to escape the others pull him down. He basically did that crab shit right there, ironic.

@@Soldier_Sean Exactly

Kurt Cobain did it first ❤

He spit a freestyle too

@@ati8713 you were there too?

Dude thats crazy. You were in the crowd of that documentary. You sir jave my repect. I salute you. 👏

Truth

Classic

👑

yup, guilty as charged your honor!

I'm no big fan of Kanye either but I respect any man who s dedicated to his craft.

i hear what you're saying, when he was talking about the wheelchair, i could definitley hear Charlie Murphy. hahahaha

But you rarely see the reverse lol

@@ellerocvisionz ok

Everything

This comment aged well

Today Ye one of the most respected fashion icon in the world with his brand Yeezy crazy!!

No one took him seriously in the pink polo. This guy gets it (or got it ig lol)

Facts, I don't even really listen to Kanye and I'm a Yeezy fan just cuz he's Yeezy

I’m a fan of him and his music and while yes I wish he would make music again, I also respect if he won’t ever drop anything again. Because he said it himself that he is focusing on different things now and that he has ‘gotten tired of selling out arenas’. I just love ye man

@@bencegabor648 I am not a “fan” of any artist…but I can be a fan of their music. There are certainly some artists I admire..for eg Chuck D…but I could never be a fan of someone I don’t know and have never met! I could be a fan of MJ’s music…don’t mean I would blindly agree worship him (when he was alive)

@@its_rick_james_bich2575 just because I’m a fan doesn’t mean that I agree with everything he does or says. Most of it i partly or fully agree, but there are exceptions. For example my view on abortion is different from his.

@@bencegabor648 That’s quite ironic…as Kanye’s opinions on abortion are probably the only thing I’ve ever agreed with him about! But respect all views..as of course we all should🙂

kanye surprise

A rapper with a ghostwriter? What the fuck happened?

Lol@ went crazy

+CoLLeeN Kanye has given him props. He's thanked him in one of his Grammy speeches and credited him whenever he helped with his songs.

yes he does. look for the name Che Smith on his album credits. Che Smith is Rhymefest.

+Arvin Roundstone I really don't and I wish I did. But it's more than that though. Normally, I value content over sound. However a really great rapper/producer team, makes it sound good. You know that feel when you listen to college dropout or late registration? You know, it's just a feeling you get inside, that says: "Wow this sounds good". After a couple of times listening, you really start to rock with the lyrics. That creative approach. mixed with purpose in the lyrics and dope production, is why I can still listen to those album today. Yeezus didn't give me that feeling, and that's why I'm not down with it

Ty

Sounds like robot rape. I'm good

Arvin Maryami shit is wack

Arvin Maryami its his worst album fym

Me too

+James Garmund Whattttt whattt !!!!!!!!!

Ewww.....

looks like it just burned down a blunt.

Cocaine is my guess...:p

Crazy how someone can watch this interview and comment about a man's neck. Especially another grown man. Is that really where people's mental is?

Remember The Manifesto? Talib at the time was about sharing his truth. Hell, his name means truth seeker. So it's easy to see why he would be incensed at some guy who he feels he's already helping making him lie and do theatrics. Now might be different but this was a long time ago.

This was the comment I was looking for because I've felt that Talib Kweli didn't want Kanye to outshine him on stage

2021: Black people don’t want to hear Kanye rap, talk or be seen.

what he do?

It's not funny anymore, try different jokes.

f2f f

hip hop is my favorite genre of music. But I listen to many other genres. Any person that calls Kanye a musical genius has got to be shitting me. Come on man, one can make great beats but at the end of the day, a rock album a jazz album a classical album takes wayyyyy more musical skill than making a fucking beat. Kanye is a genius hip hop producer sure. A musical genius my fucking ass!

Kurt K When you think about it, it takes more skill because the piano keys are easy, of we could just press one key to get the same chords, on any of those other instruments, it would be the same, honestly , learning all those chords is cool but when it comes down to it, not everyone can do it which also brings me to , what if someone has this dope melody but can't play?? and it only sound right on Sax. , they may never get that idea out into the world to be used like all the piano melodies we already have and new songs constantly coming out from pianist

Wtf? Talib scared that young kanye would outshine him?

@@kurtk7521 6 years later still a dumb comment

Best? Nah one of the best tho

+perk 2/20/20 wow, u need a lesson my friend

Gorgeous had 3 verses that any rapper would be proud of, period

+Buck5kinmanx8 Agreed, one of the best. Arguably top 10, idk.. prolly not

Back Then, I Agree. Now? Hell Nah.

Damn! Now I can't stop looking at that, haha.

Some have suggested that if you want to know a person's true age check the rings on their neck. It's close to checking the rings on a tree stump.

He didn’t want to get outshined.

Sure he used to...now hes just a pop ass bitch. He can produce better music but he isnt. Talib on top

That's ONLY because Kanye's beats are dope. Give Kweli and Kanye the same beats and Talib will have the better songs, but that's not solely a testament to Kweli's lyrical abilities either it's also a testament to his song writing abilities (which are 2 different things). He's a better song writer than Kanye AND he's a better rapper than Kanye. Kanye makes incredible beats and he knows how to ride the beat flow wise but his song rarely have substance, and rarely go any deeper than the surface, especially not recently. For a long time I've been saying that if Kanye was humble enough to recognize his strengths AS WELL as his weaknesses and acknowledge that he's not a great rapper and give his beats to better song writers he'd be a huge part of making some truly great music.

bboyfan22 but you know what the problem is? Kweli CAN'T and DOES NOT HAVE THE SKILLS to make beats likewise to Kanye, so you cannot do that comparison. Kanye was introduced to the game by making beats for other rappers like jay-z and that's why he prospered and had the power to be a rapper if he wanted to. He already did that, and hes producing beats for pusha t so yeah

Julian Baile It's a perfectly legitimate comparison. I'm comparing their abilities as song writers and rappers. Kweli is better. Kanye has good beats because that's where his strength is, it's not in rapping. I really don't see how you can say it's an unfair comparison.

Fact still remains Kanye has more his than Talib
