I like Bone Thugs N Harmony, Craig Mack, Biggie. I don’t think I have ever listened to a KW song. Or whatever his name is. Not one. And I’m being serious.
His earliest stuff really is classic material. His first two albums were pretty revolutionary at the time. Great production, relatively unique subject matter, and pretty good lyrics (compared to his lyrics now which are trash).

From his first two albums All Falls Down, Jesus Walks, Family Business, Touch The Sky, Gone, Diamonds From Sierra Leone, We Major are all must listens in my opinion. Those two albums will forever have a place in my top 10 albums of all time.

If you really want the recruits excited, bring in Ted Nugent! Not to sing, but to share his heart.

Kids don’t care about Kanye. Bring in Lil Baby or Kodak Black and then you’ll really have something.

It was revolutionary ****. Never got this argument Kanye was even decent.

I’m not a Kanye fan but at this point I miss getting elite recruits. If this is what it takes then I support it. Hell the team can make TikTok videos at halftime if it gets Top 5 recruits to come here again. (And actually play. Stay seated Sharpe doesn’t count)

I’m tired of UK basketball season being over in early March.

His fingerprints are all over '00s hip hop. He's got production on some of the best albums of the '00s including Jay Z's Blueprint and Black Album, Common's Be, Kweli's Quality, Lupe's Food and Liquor, Nas' Hip Hop Is Dead, and obviously his own albums. Him and Just Blaze pioneered that soulful chipmunk style sampling. For a while there wherever Kanye went so went the genre. His production on the last two Pusha T albums is great. DAYTONA is probably one of the best and tightest albums hip hop has had in the last decade in large part due to Kanye's production.

I say we go all in on World Wide Wes, if we get him back we can play an IPod thru the Rupp speakers and still get 5* recruits. IMO

Kanye sells Yeezy shoes and slides made by Adidas. Why would he perform at one of Nike's biggest schools?

Who started this??????

If he did, which I'm sure he won't, it's because he doesn't care about Adidas. He feuds with them all the time and wears Nike in public. We also will be getting a commit from his basketball academies best player Friday most likely

I’m split on this.

Would be a buzz generator for sure. Would appeal to the players. But I think it would also be a complete tone deaf card to the fan base and further drive a wedge between the program and the fans.

Kanye is a head case. There’s no denying that. Dude is extremely talented but can’t get out of his own way. He has seemingly gotten a little better lately, but I dunno man. Seems iffy.

I think there’s other big names you could pull in without the drama Kanye brings.

Kanye made his mark man. Problem his “off court” stuff so to speak turned lots of people off. I mean when you compare yourself to Jesus….

I’ve never been into Kanye, but this would give some buzz to BBM. And that is something that has been missing the last handful of years for it.

This is maybe a one time thing where ya should. It’s actually really funny.
I’ve seen some clips from it. “I’m Kodak Black but when you see my I’m white”. Can’t stand that Pressley dudes shtick tho. Kodak is one of a kind and one of the most uniquely talented vocalists to ever live. High praise, but you really can’t overrate him.

I laugh harder and harder every time I watch that video & the Chase Rice video. You don’t like Caleb? Ol’ Glenny is funny just sitting there eating his bowl of ice cream!

But yeah, Kodak is a great talent, he just needs to get off the spice!

Or we could just get someone who can coach the game of basketball.

Based on my daugher's spotfiy playlists, I would guess that players are probably on the Tyler the Creator or Kid Cudi train these days.
