hes incredibly underrated in his songwriting abilities but no hes not top 3. Top 10 arguably

MAN SHUT THE F*** UP

Nah still he picks the Right Lines always! Also is ur username after that Saint Jhn album? Where is that guy

I just liked that one album. He also wrote for Kanye I’m pretty sure

Respect me or else

That roses song ruined his carrer

OP thinks ye was right to be a nazi

Lmao, there are Jay Z, Kendrick, The Game, Lil Wayne...
Considering that Ye had writers since Jesus Walks, I would not put him in such lists.

Was he ever wrong! Meant in taste wise from music to fashion to live shows not the nazi stuff i always thought that was corny cuz Hitler is a loser compared to ye

Top 3 lyrical performer perhaps, as in he has top 3 lyrics but he doesn’t write it all so you can’t give him the whole thing

I still believe he is top 5 rappers of all time but lyricists naw.

Not even being funny
When thinking about the bleached a****** line i had to admit Ye might be the greatest ever cause he'll say anything as a rapper and make it dope
Him and Future top 2 no cap

He dunked on you unc 🥀

When you have Dave Blunts write for you, you are out of any kind of top lyricists conversation.

i think kanye is the greatest artist of the 21st century by a country mile...

but the answer is no. not even close.

Idk about writer since he's apparently had alot of help, but delivery-wise he's got more classic verses than anybody imo. By a fair margin.

If those ghostwriters could deliver those lyrics as effectively, they would.

Wouldn't say top 3 and he fell off a cliff but prime Ye underrated as a lyricist. Can't think of a rapper with more wit and charisma

You get it

no you are wrong
ill take Nas 91 to like 2002
edit - i only quoted you cuz i respect your opinions on here.

Agreed. Still kinda pressed he ruined a perfect discog with most of these albums post TLOP

Rage bait is boring 🥱

I like Nas but I've slept on most of his albums ngl. He's always an elite writer but performance -wise Kanye manages to make almost every verse either hilarious, clever, devastating etc and most importantly; memorable.

Nas from his first verse to Stillmatic was nothing but memorable 10/10 verses man.

Performed by ye, written by Dave Blunts.
