Despite Not Releasing Music for Years, Kanye West Makes It to This Coveted List of Hip Hop Artists Alongside Eminem And Metro Boomin

Kanye West [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/kanye-west/] is a living legend in hip-hop and has proved it from time to time. However, in the past two years, the singer has made no new album or solo songs. There have been talks that Ye is crafting a new full-length album and people close to him have apparently listened to some parts of it. But fans have only waited, and there has been no specific timeline for when the new album will drop. Despite this unrest among fans, the rapper has made it to this coveted list of hip-hop artists alongside Eminem and Metro Boomin. KANYE WEST HAS KEPT FANS ENGAGED EVEN WITHOUT A NEW ALBUM X (formerly Twitter) user Hip Hop All Day recently rolled out a list of artists who surpassed 60 million monthly listeners on Spotify. It included famous faces like Drake, Travis Scott, Doja Cat, Eminem, Nicki Minaj, 21 Savage, and Metro Boomin. But this time Kanye West joined them and it was indeed surprising considering he has not rolled out a new album for two years. The last album Ye released to the public was ‘Donda’, in August 2021 and it topped the Billboard 200. > The 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗬 hip hop artists to surpass 60 MILLION monthly listeners on > Spotify 🔥🤯 > > • Drake > • Travis Scott > • Doja Cat > • Eminem > • Nicki Minaj > • 21 Savage > • Metro Boomin > • Kanye West (𝗻𝗲𝘄) > > Superstars only. pic.twitter.com/UHfkBdg1OI [https://t.co/UHfkBdg1OI] > > — Hip Hop All Day (@HipHopAllDayy) November 25, 2023 > [https://twitter.com/HipHopAllDayy/status/1728548656109043874?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] This achievement points out the sheer loyalty of his fans. Despite his announcing or canceling the release of the upcoming album several times, they continued to cherish his previous songs. In fact, legendary actor and musician Will Smith [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/will-smith/] has been obsessed with West’s music as well. In his podcast episode Class of ’88, his son Jaden Smith recalled his fascination with the album ‘Watch the Throne’ [https://www.netflixjunkie.com/music-hollywood-news-jaden-smith-remembers-will-smith-obsession-with-this-kanye-west-album-on-the-brand-new-podcast/].

THE POP ICON GARNERED MORE STREAMS AFTER THE RELEASE OF DONDA In 2021, Kanye West, who goes by the name Ye now, took over the minds of fans with the album ‘Donda’.

These albums included ‘The College Dropout’, ‘808s & Heartbreak’, ‘Late Registration’, ‘Graduation’, ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’, ‘Yeezus’, ‘Ye’, ‘Watch The Throne’, and ‘The Life of Pablo’.
