re: Kanye fans have no idea who Paul McCartney is

It isn't a debate that McCartney/Lennon is the greatest songwriting duo of all time. Their songs are CONSTANTLY covered and redone, they still sell a shitton of records.

McCartney has played the Olympics and the SB in recent years.

I don't even know how this is a debate.

I'm pretty into music, have actually played in a few bands, and will give anything an objective listen, but to put your statement in perspective, McCartney is still getting airplay for things that came on the scene over 50 years ago. Personally, I couldn't tell you one thing that Kanye West has done "musically," if you held a gun to my head.

Has absolutely NOTHING to do with the popularity of Kanye

Like I said, there is more people today that could pick Kanye out of a line-up than that knew who Paul was at his most famous time.


If you really want to talk "musically" and ignore the entire thread, we can talk how the Beatles may possibly be the most overrated band of all time, but that is a different thread for the music board.
