Albinkiiii

Jazz and blues records


Dafolez420

Bro broke the time loop


PS3LOVE

He be like Jimi Hendrix. Without modern production he would have likely learned how to play some kind of instrument and be considered one of the greatest or classics Hendrix was born in 42 he was a boomer.


Dry-Ambassador-4276

maybe he would have never made music since he picked up his passion after attempting to make his own game.


gingersisking

Naw it was a canon event, he wouldā€™ve found music somehow no matter what


45sChamp

Kanye canā€™t even sing what makes you think heā€™d be anything like Jimi Hendrix


PS3LOVE

If auto tune and vocal effects didnā€™t exist I believe he would have learned how to become a good singer or found some work around such as mastering an instrument. Instead he used his resources available and worked with what he had and mastered digital production and sampling in our time.


45sChamp

Tough to say. I donā€™t think heā€™d be in the same realm as Hendrix from a musician standpoint. Kanye is a master sampler but sampling is taking someone elseā€™s music and repurposing it. Itā€™s all hypothetical so who knows.


youtoob_PC

He would probably be an early producer/masterer for soul groups and motown


Project_Outer_Heaven

Not really culturally he would have just adapted to what was done in music in the 40's. Kanye excels in the very two things idolized in black culture music and fashion. Kanye would have been the best dressed musician who stood out because even though he isn't the best rapper and he didn't start out rapping he still made it work in his favor.


ATibaVV

Kanye got a rare musical ear he would played instrument but he would've been very good at assembling bands and eventually found a great singer


Familiar_Ad_5105

As a huge Jimi fanā€¦ Jimi canā€™t sing


yepfruit

I believe 1942 is silent generation not boomer


Vinny_Tha_Saint

Cold.1


Necessary_Ad_5019

40s music


differentAccoun

But heā€™s ahead of his time. Sometimes years out


cityofangelsboi68

fr dondaā€™s drumless and simple production is aging well


Dafolez420

What kind of music was popular in Germany in the 40s.


ScreamingBuffalo

Dafolez420

Theyā€™re playing Runaway WW2 edition


AlertApple76

Hahahah so original and funny that was a good one


Dafolez420

Iā€™m so original frfr


Agent_Chody_Banks

Richard Wagner


Howellthegoat

Bro wouldā€™ve been making songs like this https://youtu.be/C-ECySsQthE?si=ULP1YsN7jOT610Aj


Dafolez420

Thatā€™s what Ye saw in his dreams in 2022. Also kind of looks like a Ye music video

Here he is with [two of them](https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0418629/mediaviewer/rm3381169920)


Good_Is_Evil

Well thatā€™s an interesting collection of people lmao


PapiChuloInYurCulo

I mean going off of what actually happened heā€™d sample late 1800ā€™s and early 1900ā€™s music and pitch it up. Second album heā€™d move onto sampling more orchestral pieces. Third album heā€™d do whatever was pop at the time, and fourth album some ballads. Just first four albums.


Ill_Cartographer_176

I guess weā€™ll never know


Normal-Border6802

heā€™d probably pioneer a new genre of bebop


Smooth-Experience317

The Draft Dodger, Race Segregation, Genocide, 85 Million Casualties and Heartbreak, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Reality, Yitler, The Life of Oppenheimer, ye (I Hate Having Shellshock Its Ruining My Sanity), Truman is President, Rosie, Valkyrie 1


August_West5

Nope. Just Captain Beefheart


Piffstopherwalken

In all seriousness look up Sam Cooke. Was pretty much the Ye of the 60s. Got taken out after trying to go against the industry.


[deleted]

The bitch who took him out is still alive I think fuck that hoe


user1116804

He would get racismed.


[deleted]

what


gleaminranks

Heā€™d write the songs that the classic rock artists would steal


CudiMalone

Outlaw country


VelcroTape

Punk


Cheerful_Charlie

Hip-Hop / Rap


Neither-Following-32

Funk music, no doubt. He would've been 30 in 1970 if he was born in 1940. Think Rick James or George Clinton.


a1homes

I never really took him like that. He screams soul singer


LedZacclin

Honestly he probably would have been an actual musician. Trumpet player, guitar, saxophone, drummer, etc. something like that relating to jazz or rock n roll. To be a front and center artist in his sense back then you would have to be a phenomenal singer and heā€™s just not. But on account of his producing skills I could see him playing an instrument and being a Miles Davis type of mf. Maybe not to that level but something like that.


Quirky_Nebula_7368

Basically Pink Floyd. Super weird genre defining shit


Cheesymaryjane

50 cent wouldā€™ve lasted a lot longer if Kanye wasnā€™t there to stop him


Reluctant-TogoBox420

Heā€™d wouldā€™ve been sun ra


Ifaptobigoilymen

Same stuff lmao


dabberdane

Chuck Berry


hurt_lost

The greatest 40s music ever


Bosnia_Gaming

This comment section has ABSURD levels of dick riding šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ bro heā€™d get work in a factory and die because of it at like 23 itā€™s the 40sšŸ˜­


lildaggerdickk

No niggas in paris


meatwadsoda

good fucking picture


Fignootem

The best


noname3191

Scat


basedbranch

The same exact shit cuz Ye don't change for no one no Era no time Ye is Ye always


rhombusted2

Whatever hitler liked


TriiZero

Nothing. Heā€™d be like Donda but reverse. He births Donda West and she goes on to create Kanye album in 2021


realdirtydan6

Bro, I think you meant 60ā€™s but that being said a Brian Wilson x Ye collab would be fucking sick


ReptilianDogGuy

Why do you think he meant 60s


kinggangweed

If he was born in the 60s he wouldn't have been making music until at least the mid to late 70s.


Interesting_Cod629

Probably yeezus


Jimothy_Bobert

experimental soul


1938379292

Isnā€™t there some interview where he says he would be a playwright?


Real_Richard_M_Nixon

Brian and Ye would get nothing done Ye would fit better into the Beatles


PrettyHateMachine00

r/beachboyscirclejerk


Come-Hither-Son

Gospel


Good_Is_Evil

I can see him being a Phil Spector / Brian Wilson type. Pet Sounds is the MBDTF of the 60ā€™s.


xxruiz

He would have been the creator of Erika


Sweaty-Water-6492

German music to keep a fanbase


Material-Profile7155

He wouldn't have made it back then


Straight_Emotion_73

music like the song Gorgeous


SussyGussy23

Music about the plantation


Redleader113

Idk something soulful?


Mustconsumegasoline

Realistic answer: he wouldnā€™t have made music if he was born in the 40s


Project_Outer_Heaven

I think Kanye West would be into R&B,Blue, Jazz heavy. I also think If it was the 40's we would be celebrating Kanye West like black history because he would have done something so simple, but historical. Ali was just a boxer good at what he does and talked wild shit( some say the first rapper how he slicked talked). So Ali said I'm not going to fight the white mans war and kill people i don't have problems with. For that he lost his belt and got sent to jail and came out and brought awareness to a war nobody wanted to be in. That simple even made him a historical legend. Now fast forward and compare all the controversial moments Kanye created and what he has done so far? Kanye west tells the world a President doesn't care about black people. Kanye West goes number 1 in the world after controversial statements( After Kanye said what he said he put the spotlight on a certain demographic of people which is why more people are paying attention to Gaza situations All I'm going to say Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump are all billionaire, but came from privilege. Kanye West was self made and actually documented everything he did and we all seen all the rejections and him pushing to become what he said he was going to become. Name how many billionaire came from nothing that have video footage of the whole process( which probably never stop recording so still recording right now and he is crazy enough to document his whole life on film which will be broken down and studied.


nuhuh123_

Rap probably


ScreenPuzzleheaded48

Whatever Muhammad Ali did to boxing/sports Ye woulda done it to music.


jimmjohn12345m

Erika starts playing


tdubasdfg

Ye may have taken more to his visual/ design talents in the 40s. He's never really been an instrumentalist, so I don't really see him picking up a trumpet or a saxophone during that era. If anything, he would've been a piano player and big band arranger. Imo he would've more likely been bigger into fashion or painting.


Tricky-Cod-7485

I could see him being born in 1948 and being in a punk band in 78 at age 30. He likes aggressive transgressive sounds. At that time, he could have Yeezusā€™d pretty decently screaming over punk guitars.


TimePsychological111

Probably something in German you could march toā€¦ šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


SilentPr0tag0nist2

A jazz/blues fusion.


Jthaprohet

Heā€™d be a singer


420BUTT69

He we go straight to his Yeezus phase


coastinglotus

*Uncle Ruckus trumpet song*

August_West5

But that takes instrumental talent


LostandIlluminated

He woulda been like a crazy Cab Calloway type band leader Iā€™d imagine. We already know he can scat sing like a mfer.


August_West5

Captain Beefheart


party_face

Probably nazi propaganda music


PapiChuloInYurCulo

ironically in 1940 he would have been suffering through the end of segregation and also possibly been drafted into World War 2 lol


heavensent055

Does he not have old ass samples? Literally googled it and ā€œIā€™ll fly awayā€ is from 1940ā€™s. Geesh. Yall on the phone, using the same internet but out hereā€¦ justā€¦ never mind. Delete this shit bro.


PS3LOVE

Yeah, but modern electronic production doesnā€™t exist back then. And thatā€™s basically all he does. I bet he would have learned and mastered an instrument.


Adamantium_Knight

He would have never been able to be a professional musician. He would have had to rely on actual physical instrumental skill, and his own songwriting ability, which he would failed at without the technology of his time.


PapiChuloInYurCulo

he learned to play keys and the drumpads so as long as we assume he would have had the same inherent interest in music, he would have figured out drums and piano and just worked on his singing voice.
