I don’t think it’s safe.

Yep that Minnesota sound led to the creation of new jack swing.

Teddy Riley said that himself he was inspired by it.

I think prince has did more for black music than MJ has..

Kanye is literally nowhere near Prince’s level.

literally not even close.

the nigga made 1999, Purple Rain and Sign O’ The Times in what? like a three four year time span?

and y’all are putting him there with KANYE?

kanye isn’t even better than MJ and y’all jumping to prince

Being on a site with super kanye stans make this impossible

NOT TO MENTION HIS SELF TITLED

HE PLAYED EVERY INSTRUMENT AND WROTE EVERYTHING TOO

I dont get why kanye cant be compared to any older artist. Kanye has 6 classics and is one of the most influential artists of all time, he's a legend and should be compared to acts such as prince or bowie. They're not untouchable

With that said, i prefer kanye but I also love prince. Sing o the times and 1999 are some of my favorite albums of all time

kanye stans

I’ve never gotten into Prince, and I was born in 92. It’s just not for me. I’ve never even got into that movie he was in because it’s all just too eclectic. Y’all can have that.

Easily

nobody is better than prince.

yea. not safe but i feel like you could make an argument

actually if we're talking purely music.. then idk

Based on the final product, yeah

You’ve never listened to prince

Why are people acting like it's such a hot take to think Kanye's on the level of Prince

Kanye's legend status was solidified years ago he's absolutely in the conversation

this is why i cant take ye stans seriously

"most influential of all time"

listen to more music!
