More people know who Kanye is now than people who know who Paul was at his most popular time.

You're clearly basing that statement off the barrel scrapers you surround yourself with. If you associated with any mildly successful individuals, you would know otherwise.

You realize McCartney has done things to get new fans since 1960, right?

While I don't think he's as relevant to young people, there is no question he is more popular than Kanye.

Well considering he has been around for nearly 80 years, of course he has spanned more generations of people.

Now some are comparing him to John Lennon:

Kanye has favourably compared himself to Michael Jackson, but now, by working with Sir Paul, he invites a comparison to John Lennon

I would say with the younger demographic that Kanye is much more popular and also in their "prime" Kanye has more people that know who he is now than Paul.


I'd actually bet that more people even including the people in their 60s and 70s know who Kanye is over Paul.

Kanye is a much bigger deal than a lot of people here are giving him credit for, but super saint is way off base.

Those people are irrelevant anyway. Only good for their money they have stole from the younger generations.

Ok I'm done trolling



Although I actually do think people have overrated the Beatles

Also people are under estimating how popular Kanye is.
