From the very beginning of his exceptional career, Kanye West has torn down the outdated idea that rappers had to be a part of the gang life to create music. West never gave into the stereotype of the street kid who grew up in a tough world where the only form of survival was to join the gang. He was none of that. Nor did he ever try to be any of that – and for one reason only – he never *had *to be any of that. His talent was on another level. A level that people did not recognize at first, but he never let any amount of criticism hold him down. Kanye West became a rapper in his own right: without adapting his style, without changing his appearance, without making his music fit the mold that those in the rap industry expected. His fame and his awards were earned purely on his determination and a full and comprehensive understanding of his own unobtainable talent – and because he ignored every ignorant person who said he couldn't make it. He possesses a talent no one understood until it was shoved in their faces with his debut album “The College Dropout” and the infamous “Through the Wire”. From that pivotal album, West became an icon of rap music.

What if this is legitimately Kanye West

What if he makes more alt accounts and praises himself

Look, I ain't sayin' that he's the best. All I'm sayin' is that, when you look at what he does, and then you look at what everyone else does, it's real obvious that he does it better. Just sayin'.
