Because he makes music with a commercial appeal, so he obviously makes music to make money. If he didnt he'd have GLC, Consequence and Malik Yusef on his albums instead of Jay Z, Chris Martin and Lil Wayne.dubs wrote:Why do you feel that way? remember when 'ye was making beats and droppin mad quotables jus for the love of hiphop?

Even more his being disingenuous, he's promoting a "do it for the love" image that might resonate with up-and-coming artists and keep them from grabbing a sliver of Kanye's increasingly profitable pie. Kanye knows very well that making it as a freelance artist requires a lot of self-marketing, a lot of glad-handing, a lot of dealing with clients and people you might not love to be around. To act like he wishes he was in his mom's bedroom on the Southside of Chicago instead of hitting Kim Kardashian from the back and popping tags around the world is ridiculous. Kanye wants to know why are artists expected to be promotional tools and marketers? In part, because of him. Not that he invented or even perfected the model of artist as businessman, but he definitely bought into the shit wholesale.step one wrote:Because he makes music with a commercial appeal, so he obviously makes music to make money.

That's all well and good but don't then complain about people making music to get rich. If it bothers him that much he can lead by example and give his royalties to charity and make his music available for free download. And stick to producing, the rapping mostly sucks.

Haha... I'd take even the current uninspired versions of Jay-z and Lil wayne over GLC and Consequencestep one wrote:Because he makes music with a commercial appeal, so he obviously makes music to make money.

because Big Sean is the knock-off American version of Drake that Kanye couldn't get signed to GOOD Music (neither could Jay to Roc Nation)step one wrote:yeah but the record company are only gonna give you a budget to collaborate with Chris Martin or Lil Wayne if they're confident you're gonna sell enough to make that money back.
I'm still at a loss as to the reason for the existence of Big Sean though.
