Ep. 315 Kanye West's Musical Legacy: Kind of Like a Big Deal

The Section 357 Show: The Ball Street Journal

Kanye West loves Kanye West; that we know, but Kanye West also wants you to love Kanye West. And sometimes we actually do. When it comes to Kanye West’s music, his greatness and talent and influence are undeniable, but not without some limits, many of them self-imposed. In this continuation of our conversation with Rosalyn Ross, we take a look at Kanye West’s musical legacy from College Dropout to Yeezus, while analyzing his catalogue and some critical turning points along the way. How should we interpret Kanye West’s desire to be the best at everything? Do we not give Kanye enough credit? How did his music change after his mother passed away? Was Yeezus a stepping-stone to something greater artistically? We answer all of these questions and ask plenty more.
