As polarizing as Kanye West can be at times, there are very few artists who can go toe-to-toe with him both lyrically and production-wise. His early career included creating beats for the likes of JAY-Z, Foxy Brown, Ludacris and more before pivoting into rap, which subsequently spawned classics like The College Dropout and Late Registration. However, the Chicago native’s role in Hip Hop also extends well beyond his own discography.
