Kanye without a doubt. The beats and lyrics are on a such higher level than Twista.

well, the reason i ask is because i just wanted to make sure that i'm not the only one who thinks kanye west's new album is prolly the best hip hop album to come out in a few yrs. everybody's talkin "twista's is the best album so far this year, twista this, twista that" and there's no doubt that he's talented and that kamikaze is a solid album, but as far as quality goes, kanye's album rivals that of raekwon's "only built for cuban linx" or tribe's "midnight maurauders".

anyways, since this album came out, i been stayin away from the preppy polo/tommy/etc etc clothes and i've been diggin in the closet for the baggy 36" jeans, tim boots, xxxL hoodies, been wearin my headphones all day long, smoking black n mild [:nono: i know...] etc. It's like the hiphop me came out and the preppy me went into the closet.h:

The new Raekwon is pretty good, I like it. Kanye's album is definitely one of the better hip hop albums in recent years, but there are lots of good underground albums. My favorite album of all time is still Outkast - Aquemini.

What the fck? Kanye's album is much more pussy sht, most songs are tight but they are all poluted with mainstream/R&B soundin traits. Nevertheless, there are a handful amount of good tracks, and kanye himself is fckin tight. However, I'm not down with this mainstream britney spears shit sounding chicks singing in the background stuff though.

Twistas new album is much better. Art of Life, kill us all, and almost all the tracks are more than decent.
