Here is KRS-One being interviewed (awhile ago) discussing Kanye West’s “Graduation” album… He kind of rips on Kanye West and his music. He also brags up the “Curtis” album… I don’t like KRS-One for his comments and have never been big a fan of his music. I know and respect the fact that he makes real hip-hop that many people enjoy and can relate to, but most of his shit I don’t bump… His “Flashing Lights” comment is a bit over the top…
KRS-1 also says some shit in this video that is very true and that people should listen to… Real talk right here, except for the bullshit about Kanye and Curtis’ albums.
