Special thanks to Martin Connor. More of his hip hop analysis can be found here: www.rapanalysis.com/
A crisp and clear vocal performance is a vital component of all genres of popular music. So when Kanye West recorded his debut single, "Through the Wire," with his jaw completely wired shut after a car accident, he was taking a huge risk.
When you listen to "Through the Wire," you immediately hear that Kanye "chipmunk soul" in his pitched-up sample of Chaka Khan's "Through the Fire." But you also hear Kanye riff: Yo, Gee, they canât stop me from rapping, can they? Can they, Hop?
His voice is muffled and lispy. It's not clear at all. But that vocal performance illustrates something unique about his work as a producer and artist: His greatest instrument has always been the human voice.
Here's a Spotify playlist for some select Kanye West tracks.

You can bash Kanye as a person but not as an artist that's for sure

"If you're a fan of Kanye West, you're not a fan of my music. You're a fan of yourself. I'm just the espresso"- Kanye West (2013)
I agree.

Ultra light Beam is such a beautiful song.

I would have never thought that one of my comments would be featured on a video from a channel with over a million subscribers. Hopefully this video will get more people into Kanye.

Man, Kanye was so ahead of its time that I forgot that MJ was still alive during his early years.

Fun fact: Michael Jackson loves 808s & Heartbreak so much, he plays it to his children a lot.

Kanye IS a musical genius... and he knows it. That's his problem.

I wish they made this after the release of Daytona, Ye, KSG and Nasir. The Kanye production on these albums is on point. He truely is a musical genius.

I used to not be able to stand Kanye when I was younger. But then I grew older and learned a few things about life and realized what he was about.

Kanye is an icon! The man's music elevated my self esteem. I can't thank him enough.

The beginning of GoodLife is actually the chorus of Michael Jackson's PYT not just synth. They construct the beat live when he performs, and its truly incredible.

Kanye is a person I have the most arguments about, because people refuse to believe me when I tell them he can be a jackass AND a musical genius at the same time.

MBDTF is one of the most perfect albums of all time. Not only in hip hop but in general.

I remember listening to Heartless not even knowing who Kanye was. Heartless was my fav song for a couple of years.

Update, December 2022: Kanye West, now known as Ye, is not the artist we used to know. From conspiracy theories to dining with white supremacists to praising Hilterâs Nazi regime, we have to ask: How did Ye get here? Read the report on vox.com/: bit.ly/3UsRKI9
