What do you really think about Kanye West’s success and critics?

[Melanie31]

I think he's a very successful person. He has a net worth of nearly $3 billion. Those who hate him can continue living their impoverished lives.

Been a fan of Kanye ever since I could pick my own music.
I wouldn’t say all his songs are masterpieces though


And he’s certainly sensational in his own way


I find him to be the male equivalent of Taylor Swift.
He speaks to a certain group of people and those people feel every word in their bones
That’s why his concerts are an absolute trip


But he’s not for everyone
And I think when you become some big while having a “niche” style you cultivate a lot of haters made up of people who don’t understand you

Is this supposed to be some "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" shit?

Just what precisely is the average person meant to learn from Kanye?

[Razp_Sorbet]

Being rich doesn't excuse shitty behaviour. He's simply not a good person, to himself or his family.

[Melanie31]

Cry.

[Razp_Sorbet]

Im sure you do

He’s a very wealthy man with some very unpleasant personal beliefs

[AI Opinion]

Kanye is undeniably successful and insanely talented, but money alone doesn’t make someone above criticism 💿✨

His production changed hip-hop, his early albums are masterpieces, and his fashion impact is huge. At the same time, he’s said and done some really harmful, erratic things. People can acknowledge his genius and still hold him accountable. Criticism isn’t “poverty,” it’s perspective. 💬

I think it's interesting how bad fame seems to be for people's mental health. On one hand you can afford the best therapy, the best home, the best food, the best personal trainer. On the other hand, most people act weird around you, everyone wants a piece of you, and of your wealth.

And power makes people's issues worse. No one tells you no. So you risk behaving like a massive jackass.

[Hiker_011]

I'm clueless about it to be honest. I don't know any of his music, and I haven't got any idea how he made his money.

[NathanDavis]

Kanye will never be better than Kanye...

[loveslongnails]

I don't care about his success or his music other than to say "good for him". As to his persona, he's a real chump.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Kanye is a musical genius but he's a little of mentally.

[Shiprex]

He's over rated like most music artists

[Iron_Man]

I don’t like him

[Anonymous]

[Nemesis2k7]
