Mibbs: The best thing, honestly, I don’t want to say it too much, but it’s the truth that the best thing that’s happened to hip-hop in the past four years is, what? – Kanye West. That’s the best thing to happen to hip-hop in the last four years because you don’t know what it is. Like people still can’t say what it is. Is he conscious? Is he flashy? No, he’s himself! He’s a human. At the end of the day. He’s just a human being. And he’s just creative out of his mind, like he doesn’t want to look normal. Like, everybody gets on him for not looking like Beanie Siegel – but he ain’t never grew up like that. He don’t want to look like that. He see that pink Polo and he like, “Oh, that’s fresh!”
As much as a lot of dudes will be hating on that statement the fact is that's real talk. If it wasn't Kanye puttin Lupe on and working with common and pushing barriers there wouldn't be a market for "backpack" or "hipster" rappers. No matter how damn hard you wanna pretend like your hard you know at least 1 joint off each album was your ish whether it was "we dont care" off CD or "Drive Slow" off LR and even Fat Joe was sayin' "Can't Tell Me Nothin' Right" Not to mention he brought fashion back to hip hop.
Enough about Mr.West, Pacific Division is definitely the hottest thing poppin on the west coast right now so check out the full interview at The Smoking Section
