**KanYe West** Many people portray rappers as men with baggie jeans and tattoos, who rap only about violence, women, and drugs, but Kanye West has definitely broken the stereotypical rapper image. West has introduced us to a completely new side of rap that has never been exposed of or heard of to the public. He brings us creative and sensational beats that take us to a whole new dimension. West is known for his unique style, open-minded opinions, outstanding beats, a personality full of confidence, and hard hitting music, all which make him the person he is known for. His music appeals to many people, even those who do not listen to rap. West is not scared to take hip hop to the next level, and surprise everyone by crossing boundaries. This eventually led to his super stardom on “Kanye’s” own terms.
