Freshman Friday.
Before Obama became the most famous person from Chicago, Kanye set the tone 10 years ago today with his debut The College Dropout. Thematically, the became a template for artists like Lupe Fiasco, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, and J.Cole. Thanks to TheDYNAMICS, here’s Kanye’s first appearance on Rap City. He talks about the album, wanting a Ma$e feature, and future aspirations. A decade later, it seems as if Ye got what he came for.
Kanye still the same..We just keep forgetting how he was….
Been a Great video for every song 10 years before beyonce’
My nigga kanye west is one of the best of our generation.
True! Best of our generation. For this site to just have a Kanye anniversary is greatness of itself. I’m not afraid to say it but kanye changed my life and I thank his music for that and him as a person for that.

10 years ago he made some of the best music we’ve heard in years now he gives the ppl “YEEZUS” which was pure trash!
