    Is Kanye West more powerful/influential than Jay Z

    Kanye has been through more controversy than Jay...is a bigger pop star...a fashion icon...has brought out more artists..and has remained at the forefront of hip hop since his first album..

    no real beefs like jay has had tho...

    Jays smashed some of the greats in hip hop to smithereens tho..

    well?

    Kanye still idolizes Jay

    he ain't more powerfull, but musically inspiration to people I would say yes

    the downfall is Kanye don't write alot of his stuff

    Well, yeah, i get what youre saying. I think both had influence in the Hiphop world. Its just that Jay-Z is almost at his end of his career, while Kanye is still rising. I respect both of them and I like both of them.They both did their part in the world and thats good

    Re: Is Kanye West more powerful/influential than J

    mr.dubios are aware the extent of which wiggas love em?

    anyway i say musically he's more influential, and has cross boundaries, and done fairly well after crossing over said boundaries. and it's into shit jay hasn't done musically merely because he's just a rapper.

    but overall every rapper, ye included want that jay i could retire anyday now money, and success.
    I believe i'm making some good music, please just wait for me

    the katrina/bush comment wasn't about music..

    jay has never been apart of something so controversial..

    i think at this point in jay's career, kanye is the more influential, especially in production.

    id say it depends on the person viewing the situation and which part of rap music your speaking of...

    if its the mtv pop star aspect, then yes...

    but if your talking the talent of a rapper, then id say no...

    the obvious answer would be Kanye then....pop music itself is larger than rap listeners....makes it to where no matter what genre it originates from, it can leak into any genre of listeners playlists....ive heard Kanye playing on rock stations, but never have heard Jay-Z doing such...

    while everyone knows who Jay-Z is, and he was a huge part of pop culture, i think that Kanye has acquired fans where Jay-Z couldnt....he also just comes off as more of a pop figure than Jay does....

    Jayz is my favorite rapper

    But Kanye is the better dresser hands down

    You would think with hundreds of millions Jay would know how to dress.
