Phonte Calls Kanye A Coward

Here's the (short) clip:

This is funny to me and mostly on point. I'm not sure if coward is the right word, but that album was largely garbage, particularly from the perspective of the vocals. Because he's Kanye people are more prone to give him credit for trying something outta the box from his previous work, but if you ignore who it's coming from I'm pretty sure you'd just call it jumping on the '07 - '08 auto-tune trend. Also he whines like a bitch all album, which shockingly gets boring quickly.

Some folks are conflicted about Little Brother and don't find them that interesting, but I've always enjoyed them, with and without 9th Wonder. Phonte's venture to the '80s with the Zo & Tigallo album could also be seen as an artistic leap, but in my mind with much more enjoyable results than what Kanye came up with.
