What makes you say that? His first three especially are some of the best rap albums ever in terms of overall quality imo

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I do like Flashing Lights but that's about it. I hated Stronger in middle school and I hate it now.

His lyricism and delivery are a running joke that he hasn't filled you in on yet and his production is pretty mediocre, despite how much everyone drools over it.

Gotta disagree about his beats. I really like his beats, and while his rapping is mediocre at best, it goes well with his instrumentals. Not all rap has to be lyrical, MF Doom and Kanye can make equally good songs Imo in different ways with different beats and levels of lyricism.

Edit: So for me I would say it depends on peoples tastes. If you prefer lyrical rap or are judging based on lyricism, than Ye wouldn't rank very high but I really feel almost all of his albums

If the music calls for a ****ty rapper, I think that says a lot about the music. DOOM going over Kanye's beats could work out though.

I feel like songs like It All Falls Down wouldn't have worked with a rapper that was trying to spit, they would take too much away from the soul sample.

I'd love to hear MF Doom over a Kanye beat, but that wouldn't happen because now Ye doesn't even produce his own music anymore...
