One Of Kanye West’s First Beat Tapes Surface [Listen]

The World has been missing the old Kanye West so much that a Soundcloud user even managed to upload an eight-track Kanye beat tape, said to be from 1997. The first track features a very old skool Kanye producer tag and the beats are on that 90s soulful tip for hip hop heads to absorb. Unsurprisingly heavily sampled live instrumental loops merge into laid boom bap tracks. Although all of this is just an insight into Yeezy’s come-up days, it’s a clear reminder how talented he actually is.
