There's just no possible way that the people saying that "Kanye sucks" or "Kanye is the most overrated act since The Beatles" have actually listened to MBDTF in its entirety. That album is a masterpiece. It's both the most ambitious mainstream hip-hop album ever made,and the best produced.
Yes, we all know he's an arrogant douche, but are we really gonna go down that road? A lot of great musicians have been arrogant dicks. You don't have to like them to like their music.

I absolutely have. i think Kanye is good. I like Kanye, and I really like he's outsized ego, which is honestly pretty funny. Besides, we need more rock stars who act like rock stars. I've got no problems with that.
I'm pointing out that he is literally the most critically praised artist of ALL TIME, and that's a little absurd. No one, not even Dylan, has had such critical consensus not just of his greatness, but of his being superior to every other current act. I don't blame him for being an egotist, he's had more sunshine blown up his arse than any artist in the history of pop music.
Most ambitious hip hop album ever? Really? Paul's Boutique never happened? The Chronic? Low End theory? Revolution Eternal? Black Star? It Takes a Nation of Millions? Madvillainy? I mean, it's ambitious, I agree. It's just not uniquely ambitious. It's that kind of overpraise that I find obnoxious. Kanye can't be really good, he has to be the best ever.

You are either trolling, have a bad taste in music, or you are just a moron. Maybe all three.
