    Yeezus was on a whole other pitiful level of wackness that no artist can ever recover from.

    late registration was the last album i can say i thoroughly enjoyed from him. so yeah, as his sense of fashion became queerer, so did his music ironically enough

    Idk if its falling off its just he going to far out trying to be so different that it kinda isnt hip hop anymore

    exactly, dude is just trying to hard, and just because someone tries something "new" doesn't mean it's good and in his case it's really bad

    Since Graduation I've noticed how he has slumped.

    808s sucked
    WTT was dope
    MBDTF is ight, overrated but not terrible
    Yeezus IS terrible.

    Dude was infallible in 2007, he could do no wrong...but it was about music then. Folks were calling him a ? and saying he was soft but that didn't matter cu his albums were dope as ? . He was a little arrogant but that could be understood for someone who no one had faith in, he had a chip on his shoulder and proved with his first three that he was a really talented dude musically.

    Now it's not even about music anymore ? are wrapped up in Kanye the person and not noticing that Kanye the artist has fallin off. He doesn't put the same amount of effort and emotion into this stuff anymore, it's about his profile helping keep him relevant.

    The Kanye that made soulful songs with purpose, even if they were lyrically mediocre is gone. Now it's all about being incredibly self-absorbed, attention ? , some faggy fashion stuff and his "swag".

    It went from people calling Kanye a genius to Kanye calling Kanye a genius while not maintaining that same quality of music. Dude bought into his own hype and now feels like he can scribble with crayons and call it art, as part is...he right! ? buy into that ? for the same reason ? bought into Wayne calling himself the "best rapper alive" while making ? records about nothing.

    I haven't given up on his totally but I'm almost there. Internet memes and all that can't compare to plain good music. When I stopped buying Kanye albums I realized homie ain't been ? and the last one I bought was Graduation.

    I say his beliefs on life changed so has his music. I think he is the only artist to make great music no matter what mood he is in.

    I enjoyed most of Late Registration and to me it was his weakest album.

    Kanye always been arrogant and outspoken its just.now he's on a more highly.magnified platform. His actions and attitude are nothing.new. Being kanye is what got kanye to the level he's at now.

    And to say he fell off is being.ignorant of a hip hop artist's efforts to grow and advance as an artist and use that to branch off into other ventures.

    Kanye is a true artist. He expresses himself as he wishes, he's completely original and his albums are a concept, an experience. Not just some.bangers for radio play, some monotonous fillers and an inconsistent flow of vibes.

    He's actually spreading hip hop and helping it evolve while the hip hop "purists" are still stuck in that sinking 90's boat while letting chief keef pass freely and bitterly sighing to themselves "kids these days".

    U don't have to like yeezus but u can't deny his originality and artistic expression.

    And to say he can't spit is ludicrous. U must not know the guy's catalogue thoroughly enough (I.e pre college dropout).

    I remember being geeked to hear some new Kanye music.

    Now, when I see "new music featuring Kanye" I'm like "Meh, I'll wait till it come on the radio."

    ? got 4 or 5 classics. Yeezus is the new 808's. The influence is already starting to be felt. MBDTF was his last solo before that and that was arguably the greatest hip hop album ever. His feature game is a bit lazy but when it comes to albums no one paints a better picture

    No way this ? fell off he kills every verse and all his tracks entertaining. He doesn't make boring music. Yeezus was different it was an alternative hip hop album but still good IMO.
