Another BANGER video! 🔥I'm a graphic designer, and for anyone who doesn't know, the word *"icon"* means "likeness, image" and *"Iconic"* means "a person or thing widely admired especially for having great influence or significance in a particular sphere." What makes art iconic is the weight that the artist puts on his art, sure you can make a good song or a good image but if you don't add enough content for people to try to analyze it or if people are not eager to come back to, then nobody is gonna really care about it. Iconic art always has planning and attention to detail; Kanye at his prime was the master of composition, everything HAD to be planned to portray his emotions and had to have enough quality to connect with his target audience. He's never obvious, he's never predictable, but he LOVES the process of MAKING music. Without his attention to detail, hours of planning and bravery to experiment, we wouldn't have as amazing albums as the ones we currently have.
My dude!! Always look forward to your insight. Kanye is more of an “artist” than 99% of rappers in the industry for the reasons you just laid out. Glad you enjoyed the video my man. Appreciate you
@@justhip-hop No problem ma guy, your vídeos are really well put together and deserve as many views as possible. There's "musicians" and "music artists". People like Kanye, Kendrick, Outkast, etc... I consider perfect examples of hip-hop artists. (Also I edited my comment so I think I lost the pin).
@@justhip-hop I'm also very impressed that you were able to look past the fact that "Stronger" is Kanye's most popular song among his own fanbase and acknowledge that "Runaway" truly is Kanye's most iconic song. I truly feel that "Runaway" having been released while Kanye grabbing Taylor Swift's mic at the 2009 VMAs was a recent memory for many has a lot to do with why too many listeners act like "Stronger" being more popular is all that matters
@@justhip-hop thank you! Are you planning on ever doing an updated ‘features that stole the show’ or a ‘best features’ list in general? Lot to ask for, but your last video was pretty spot on & there’s been quite a few phenomenal verses since. They’re great entertainment! Eitherway, love your work
@@Bruvkeksorry just seeing this, but yes I actually am. I’m going to publish a top 10 rap features of all time- however, it’s going to take me quite a while to put together an objective list. Love the ideas though and really love your support homie
I love Kanye West musics alot He Raps about Personal Growth Social Commentary Fame Creativity Spirituality Relationships Sometimes Controversial He makes Beats and he loves sampling
Fair. I have that listed as an honorable mention in video's description. It was either Flashing Lights or All of the Lights and I gave the nod to All of the Lights
@@justhip-hopyeah I respect that flashing lights on his top 3 most popular on Spotify behind heartless and Carnival shows with time tho it’s a controversial choice cause of one lyric
In my opinion "Can't Tell Me Nothing" is his best song, because it describes himself the best and it also has something motivating about it, but still a great list!

Can you make The Top 10 Greatest rap disstracks of 2020-2024
yes I can. I made a Top 10 Disstracks of this era a couple years ago but I should make another updated one. The people love disstrack content lol
@@justhip-hop becuase hip jop is a competitive sport
You can't bind kanye to only 10 songs.
Fair lol
Try Most Popular songs that Had Removal Verses
I like it...
"Can't tell me nothing" not in the top 10? I think that is his best song
It's the first song listed in the honorable mentions
Can u pin this comment?I have watched every video!Mega respect to you ❤️
I would but I just pinned another comment from another fan. I’ll pin yours next time my dude!
Hi
One of these is not like the others, what is the Paris song doing on this list?
Song is a banger homie
Bruh where the timestamps at
it hurts my average watch time so I don't include them 😂
Unpopular opinion.... Runaway is overrated as fuck
NAH
He don’t have iconic songs
You don’t think so??
