Anyone who still goes on 4chan at all post 2016 is, at the very least, an extremely sus individual
I don't know where /mu/ is at this point, at the point I stopped using 4chan (probably also around 7 years ago lol) I was pretty exclusively on /mu/ and it seemed like it was the least nazi-infested board. Not sure where it is now, but just meant to say there is a large portion of Kanye's current fanbase at least adjacent to that crowd if not outright part of it. Tbh even when /mu/ was the "least nazi-infested board" though I wouldn't say it was "good," just tolerable when I was fiending for some new music from one of those sharethreads.
And yeah it is sort of funny (sad) that Kanye pretty much ended the stranglehold gangsta rap had over hip-hop, made it acceptable for rappers to show emotion and sensitivity and helped to elevate a lot of conscious hip-hop to the mainstream, yet what he'll probably be remembered for is antisemitism, his weird right-wing antics, and stalking Kim Kardashian. Not excusing it, but damn man, you could've retired at the top of the world with a hell of a legacy behind you and you go and do this.
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
