Can someone explain Kanye West to me?

[Hyfi]

I think he may have been a producer/performer of note within certain circles, but most all hiphop/top-40 performers elude me as to their popularity and acclaim. Kanye, Pee Doody, Jay Z, not to mention a host of auto-tuned, tire sniffin poptarts like Katy Perry and Kesha.

The only thing Jay Z has done that I really like is Beyonce.

Kesha - what a tool. They had her on one of the new years shows 2 years ago and when asked what her New Years Resolution was, her answer was "To not be a Douche Bag". I guess that was self admittance that she already was one.

As for Kanye, I thought he started out doing Religious Rap, but just couldn't hold a candle to Matisyahu. When he performed at the Sandy Relief concert in his little leather skirt, I could not understand a word he said nor could I figure out why they even let his lousy act in the show at all.

And Finch, You are the right guy!
