I'm done, there's plenty of other good music out there. Go to hell, Kanye.

Kanye and his music have always been shit.

[-] Axiochus@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Dunno, dark twisted fantasy is a banger of an album. Can't listen to it now due to the artist's recent actions, but it's genuinely a good album. Fuck Kanye and his enablement of fascism, there's no need to pretend that he never did anything cool - as if that would make his actions any less terrible.

Weak-ass flow could never hold a candle to DOOM (rip).

Or Posdnous.

Or J-live.

Or Black Thought.

Or Pharoah Monch.

Or Grand Pubah.

Or Chubb Rock.

Or Masta Ace.

Or... ...the point is I could fucking go on here for a bit and not run out of talent that not only eclipses Kanye, but precedes him and will outlast the relative dryer lint he's contributed to our shared culture. He's garbage.

Mmmmmgar.... mmmmmbhaaauge.

I take issue with you calling a subjective art form shit.

Like we can agree something isn’t for you, but calling something subjective shit is just silly really.

P.S. Fuck Kanye.

Edit: Anyone care to enlighten me as to where I am mistaken here? So I can learn.

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

you didnt make a mistake. kanye made great music, but hes a shitty person. if everybody stopped listening to music made by shitty people there'd be a lot less music in the world. led zeppelin were pedos (at least page was for sure) and they are still revered to this day as rock gods. just seems hypocritical to me

Thanks. I do think it is acceptable to separate the art from the artist.

[-] nieminen@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Not calling the whole art form shit, just his.

[-] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Again. That’s subjective my guy.

I don’t really like Kanye, well runaway slaps hard.

I don’t like Wagner but to call him shit would be silly too. Some people don’t like Beethoven, is he shit?

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

You've answered your own question. Art is subjective. Fuck you and fuck Beethoven.

Then I think it would have been better if OP kept their opinions on music out of it and condemned the dude for being a literal Nazi or added imo.

Fuck me fine, but don’t come at Beethoven like that. I’ll fight you for my dawg.

His late String Quartets are musical perfection. As are Symphonies No. 3/5/7/9.

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

See how this works?

I have address above that I sometimes struggle with not taking the literal meaning of what someone is saying and tried to explain how I will work on this in the future.

Please don’t attribute to malice what can be explained away by a mistake.

[-] naught@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Kanye made bangers dude. Let everyone else prove they were too moral and prescient to like such drivel 🙄

[-] nieminen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You have me worried, what has Ludwig done?!

[-] Maxxie 2 points 1 year ago

Then what, aside from excrement, can you call shit.

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You're wrong because you're being needlessly obtuse.

There's no reason to addend "in my opinion" to the end of what are clearly and obviously inherently subjective topics.

It wasn't a blanket statement until you decided to disingenuously disregard the implied non-subtle subtext.

I've always hated this shit. "One Directions sucks" "Well that's just your opinion!" No fucking shit, what the fuck else would it be??

[-] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I do apologise. I sometimes struggle with what people say and trying not to think literal about it. I will try and do better.

I would ask that you do the same, as calling me disingenuous isn’t quite right as it was a misunderstanding of language on my part.

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Fair criticism, and fair to call me on it. I apologize for the unnecessary ire I injected and wrongfully targeted at you. Cheers.

Thank you and I appreciate you taking the time to reply and apologise.

[-] potentiallynotfelix@lemmy.fish 6 points 1 year ago

That's just wrong. If you want to hate on him for this Nazi shit, I'll absolutely agree with you, but saying his music is bad is objectively incorrect. He has made the best albums ever.

  • Graduation
  • The life of Pablo
  • 808s and heartbreaks
  • Late registration
  • Donda
[-] coronach@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 1 year ago

It's subjective. Remember that not everyone shares the same opinion 🙂

[-] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

None of those albums would show up on my list of best albums.

They would all show up near the top of the list of shittiest albums though.

All I'm trying to say here is you can't say any album is objectively good or bad because music taste is subjective.

[-] comfy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Never was a fan, and at some point I realized I liked their songs far more without the lyrics. I understand their music has a huge legacy, but I just don't see it. Give me DOOM every time.

You've got a hit, how come it sold?

The melody, and it's thirty years old!
