    but seems like you're the only one who mentioned these things in the first 2 pages :rockynotimpressed:

    But for real though, why would you be mad at anyone mentioning these? his last album showcases heavy jazz influences (made by goat artits) so people are definitely gonna talk about it.

    Nobody should act like he's above the "acclaim" love, you would probably bring that s--- up if your favorite aritst (eminem or drake I guess) was acclaimed like that.

    his high pitch voice is an acquired taste

    tpab is one of the most decorated albums in the last 10 years, so this can't be a flaw. If anything it makes his discography more important than before.

    and TPAB is ugh for non-jazz fans.

    It's kinda a running joke

    a lot of hip hop fans love it... and hip hop fans should love jazz since jazz is one of the most important influences in hip hop history.

    he's right though, most big hip hop fans are jazz lovers, jazz is literally one of the first genres that shaped the sound of hip hop lol

    It depends on what you mean when you say "real hip hop fan"... now don't take it the wrong way man..

    I'm not saying you can't enjoy hip hop if you're not a fan of jazz, you can definitely enjoy a lot of mainstream & modern albums, that's undeniable.
    I don't even like "real hip hop fan" thing but if you mean the people who were already listening to hip hop in the 90s, then yes... almost all of them are at least familiar with the jazzy sound. The influence of jazz on early hip hop is truly remarkable... it was also a genre that was mostly enjoyable for black people.

    Edit: just to remind you that you're the only one who brought this "jazz" thing up and I quoted you
