He’s got a reputation as some sort of genius, but after listening to a couple of albums, it just seems like he has decent production and crappy everything else. Am I missing something?
Is Kanye overrated?

No, he is underrated in fact
On this board yes, over all no.
kanye is a legit genius who hasn't made a bad album in his life. his music has influenced hip-hop production and style multiple times over. so, no.
Yes
general consensus has always been as far as i can remember he's an ok at best rapper who makes up for it with his personality and by producing his own stuff
KEEP IT 300
LIKE THE ROMANS
Back in the day his lyrics were top tier. "Jesus Walks", "Good Morning", "Gorgeous", list kinds goes on. Pablo and Yeezus were kinda eh but the man's indisputably a legend and definitely most influential rapper of 00s
>hasn't made a bad album in his life.
*blocks your path*
If he really was a musical genius, he would be below him. If he was a genius, he would surpass hip hop and have products on more than one genre. If he was a musical genius he would create music that's original and not just using a part of another better song dumbed down enough to make it easier to rap over. He isn't even that good at what he does and even if he was it being a genius at producing hip hop isn't saying much at all on musical talent since hip hop is the laziest way to make music. All he needs is one song for the main part of his track that most of the time isn't even changed, it just has rapping over it, completely average rapping at that. His voice isn't anything special and most of his lyrics are disposable trash and have no substance and sounds like he just rapped over his track because he feels like he needs to. So, why do you fucks like this trash?
