Quite possibly West’s most surprising contribution to the music industry was his production streak during the summer of 2018, in which he produced five albums. West notably updated the album multiple times on TIDAL after its release. In 2016, West released his seventh and most delayed body of work, The Life of Pablo, which was illegally downloaded over 500,000 times, frustrating fans after its TIDAL-exclusive release. Kanye’s sixth solo album, Yeezus, polarized his fan base and the general public but was heaped with rave reviews by music critics. As of 2022, West has won an astounding 24 Grammys, as the most decorated hip-hop artist in Grammy history, he splits this title with his big brother JAY-Z, who has won 24 grammys too. He has scored other well-known hits, as well, from each of his previous studio albums-such as “Stronger,” “Heartless,” and “Gold Digger.” Each of his albums has been a massive critical and commercial success, including his collaboration album with JAY-Z, Watch the Throne. For instance, his 2010 album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, was universally praised by fans and critics alike it was recorded during the backlash he received from the Swift interruption and during his break-up with then-girlfriend Amber Rose.
That certainly doesn’t take anything away from his music as a matter of fact, it only seems to add to his fortuitous career. The ubiquitous Kanye West-from his famous quip, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” to interrupting Taylor Swift’s speech to marrying Kim Kardashian (and later divorcing her), to announcing that he’s running for President, and admitting his love for President Trump-you can see that he’s a staple of the tabloids and the entertainment world, industry-wide.
