      I think you guys need to have the hard conversation with yourselves that Kanye West doesn’t have it anymore. Lyrically, vocally, especially with those metal dentures in his mouth, making him slur on every single ‘s’ sound. That dude we all liked is long gone. He needs to count his money and work on his mental health. His body of work is legendary but I’m not expecting any more of that

    Common and Ana’s dont know how to pick beats. They are MCs. That is why classic labels like Def Jam would have project producers not always the same as music producers unless it’s a Dr Dre or DJ Quik type, and they would put the projects together
