Just a year after this happened and it seems like everybody has forgotten about it. Yea he lost his adidas partnership but nowadays, he's been a welcomed surprise guest at Travis shows, I'm hearing his songs being popped off on in clubs and parties, and he's been going viral on TikTok with tons of praise and no criticism or mention of him being a Nazi in the comments

Is it Americans having the memory of a goldfish? Americans not really hating Hitler/Nazis/anti-semitism that much? Kanye's music is just too good to ignore? Americans just loving to deepthroat and worship anybody that's famous?

    The worst part is that the bigotry only correlated with his decline in quality of releases

    College dropout -> TLOP is easily one of the GOAT album runs. Imagine if he just dropped dead there or disappeared from the media forever somehow

      I’ve always thought he should’ve just settled down with Kim. I don’t think anyone thought that marriage would last, but they actually stayed together for a while and went through a lot, from where I am it seemed like an okay marriage (though I’m not up on celebrity gossip, maybe they actually had a ton of problems). Should’ve just settled down and raised his kids.

      I’m actually not a huge fan of his post-mbdtf output, save for bound 2. Mbdtf is his peak for me, though I know yeezus and tlop have huge fanbases. Kids with ghosts I know a lot of people also enjoy. Daytona (pusha t) also gets a lot of accolades, though I’ve never really listened. But yeah I agree, his work in his later career gets extremely hit or miss, with probably more misses than hits.
