Reading the comment section and seeing all the missing Kanye songs on this video and everyone being upset about it leads me to one conclusion that Kanye has an overwhelming amount of amazing songs
Yeah ye has never made banger songs, he makes entire banger albums. And while his lyrics have been cringey at times he is on another level production wise.
You are so talented! This video is absolutely amazing and helps me appreciate just how good an artist Kanye is, and I almost feel like you've translated his music for those who refuse to appreciate rap/hip-hop as musical genres. Honestly got goosebumps watching this, well done!
The sad thing is a lot of people would say this is beautiful if they didn't know it was Kanye and then if you told them it was they would suddenly not like it anymore.
Gerardo Aguilar I don’t know how that quote out of all the things he’s said, makes him a horrible person. He was highlighting how badly media scrutiny affected him
Gerardo Aguilar all the stuffs he said have deeper meaning behind them. Sit down if you don’t understand Kanye, other than taking all his words literally.
The best part is, I know a lot of people that you could play this for and they would call it beautiful, but then tell them it was all written by Kanye and it becomes "trash"
this video made me go from a casual Kanye fan, to a actual fan. I've listened to his whole discography at least 3 times since watching this for the first time. Say what you want about his personality, but he is a musical and artistic genius. He's done a lot for the culture of hip hop
@@PreservationEnthusiast I didn't give a shit about pink before or after Kanye. That was a statement made about his influence on fashion you clown. I don't give a fuck what color people wear. Come on here calling someone sheep for repeating a statement made about someone who is influential in fashion. Ya dummy
+Toasted Memes no way graduation is the happiest college dropout is basically all about good vibes and succeeding in the face of adversity my dude. I'd say that's the happiest.
Father Stretch My Hands would've been a good one, maybe Good Life, could've switched it up with Mercy. Kanye's resume is so long there could've been 30 more songs put in here and some people would still want more.
I’d be so pissed if I spent all the time transcribing, learning and practicing these songs only to have somebody who didn’t do that tell me what I should’ve played. This man is awesome. Respect and enjoy what he did, don’t wish for what he didn’t.
Actually memorization just comes over time, so if you play a song enough it is muscle memory, so his talent and hand coordination is probably the most amazing part, and the fact that he never messes up
@@JustForfun-xj6kb I know I'm late to this but Kanye also has some very interesting "schemes" and "layouts" and key transitions that make looping his songs and just playing them back to back easier as a musician. Speaks to Kanye's talent level more than anything as a musician. Still obviously an impressive mashup by this pianist.
Stronger Homecoming Can't tell me nothin' Love Lockdown All Of The Lights New Slaves Blood On The Leaves FML Wolves Famous All some of my favorite songs EVER, all covered on a piano. I never would've thought in a million years that I'd enjoy something like this as much as I did.
@Tony Montana nujabes was barely hip hop half the time, madlib is mostly a looper... but a sample connoisseur of the highest order. Dilla though... Dilla and Kanye are among the most important. Along with Premo and Dre.
@Tony Montana kanye is more versatile, creative, has better vocal arrangements and samples. 10 different solo albums with each a unique sound. Produced for many artists such as jay z. Hes able to bring the most out of artists. Artistically kanye is better too. His use of production to create a concept album is better. An example is TLOP. Kanye uses gospel and trap music to portray his life (man of god/humbleness and materialism/ego). Kanyes ability to express himself through production is probably the best in hiphop. The production on Ghost Town to express his bipolar disorder is amazing. What mainly sets them apart for me is his versatility.
+The Crimson King Probably a better shot for Kanye to see it if he tweets it at like Chance or someone in his camp. I doubt Ye bothers to check his mentions lol
+JSmoove I could have picked that instead of "diamonds". but i had to make a few hard decisions. i can play every kanye song though, but 3 songs per album was my concept for the onetake. hope y'all understand (Y)
Where is Silver Surfer Intermission? You're missing the song of the year and millions of views by not including it. You are still a wavy dude though. Keep it loopy.
I love how he looked at the camera as he was doing the New Slaves outro, that was EXTREMELY hard to play, but he was locked in. The Yeezus sounds were so unorthodox, none of them really had elements of a piano. It's SO impressive that he was able to play New Slaves on a piano, that takes some fucking talent, and he knew it. I really enjoyed this performance, and I bet Kanye himself would as well.
Great job translating the incredibly discordant and synthesized Yeezus into this format ... the moments of clarity and beauty on that album have always especially struck me and you captured them beautifully.
Power, New Slaves (outro) and Famous are incredibly beautiful! People are so quick to dismiss Kanye as a joke, but behind it all the man is a legitimate genius.
MBDTF - Yeezus - Graduation - 808's & Heartbreak - TLOP - Late Registration - College Dropout. Here's why. MBDTF is sonicly one of the most impressive albums of all time. It bends hip hop the way no one have ever bended. It is a story, a realization of a moment in one's life that will change the one forever. Yeezus is just groundbreaking because its so different. It has things no one would ever thought that would work on this playground we call hip hop. Graduation. One of the first and only stadium hip hop albums. Samples with synths are executed perfectly. It's a jam that makes you say "old Kanye meets new Kanye". And he did it 2007. Yeah. 808's has a special place in my heart 'cause it was the first album that me and my dad listened to while drivinh. This album is about loss. You can't get the album if you haven't lost anyone close. That is the brilliance. The Life of Pablo. This joint has some shit also that no one ever thought that could work in hip hop. But still the album works. My theory behind the meaning of tlop is that after you make the most maximal album, you will make minimalistic album. After that you'll make cubistic album. Yea, it's music in the realm of cubism. Think about that. Then the last 2 old school hip hop albums. Classics, but won't have so much artistry that all those other albums had. Sorry for bad english, I'm drunk and from Finland, so perkele jos alat vihaa ni sit vittu vihaa.
Good shit, I only beg to differ with Yeezus. Artists have been doing that noisy industrial sound since the latest the 90's, most likely even earlier. Although Kanye did bring it to the mainstream, it's been happening in hip hop forever.
you got FML JUST RIGHT. that song has one of the best build ups I've heard in a while and you captured its essence perfectly. just earned yourself a new subscriber my dude. you should do a history of Kendrick Lamar *wink wink
This is my favorite video on UA-cam. Kanye West to me is the greatest artist of my time and I can't help but feel his work is what incredible art looks like. This video helps remind me of the beauty of his art.
I'm not gonna lie this guy is externally l extremely good on the piano but he really did overdo most of these songs to the point I almost didn't recognize them.
Kaveon Foggy the thing is though, a lot of these songs wouldn't sound good if he just played the exact melody of the song since a lot of the songs are fairly simple
Famous was great. And to your question, my favorite is either College Dropout or MBDTF. Love the chipmunk sounds on CD and the fresh and hungry sound of it all. MBDTF has some powerful numbers with some pretty deep lyrics.
KaizerMan agreed. He was young and hungry to prove himself with CD and MBDTF became his comeback after 808s, he really wanted to showcase himself at his best.
+RelaxAndTroll Pure speculation here, but he may not have included Blame Game because the piano part is actually a sample of Aphex Twin. Nothing against Kanye or sample-based music (MBDTF is one of my favorite albums of all time), but to include someone else's piano part in The Evolution of Kanye just seems a little off imo, and perhaps the pianist felt the same way.
Jeremy Zeeky yes because its an electronic sample. I get what he means, blame game is a direct piano sample from another artist and if he played that its not really showing Kanye's creativity.
RelaxAndTroll I don't know if I follow your logic. Very likely it's just going over my head lol. But in both cases Kanye didnt make the original song of "Stronger" and "Blame Game". The only difference is the instrument no?
Graduation is the best album of all time and I loved the CTMN and Homecoming because those are my 2 fav songs of all time. I always play Homecoming on the piano
MBDTF is hands-down the most musically flawless album I've heard so far, with all of the tracks meshing together perfectly regardless how or when you listen to them. -"Runaway" will always dominate a special place in my heart -"Gorgeous" and "POWER" simply showcase Kanye's lyrical flow like no other song can -"Dark Fantasy" was hands-down a perfect intro for the album. -"Lost in the World" culminates in an outro that left the listener thoroughly satisfied but also begging for a replay -How underrated "Devil in a New Dress" is will always confound me. -Even "Hell of a Life", the album's worst track, easily ranks within the top 30 Kanye songs. -Tbh "So Appalled" is a pretty mediocre track for me, but it doesn't interrupt the flow of the album in any way I didn't bother listing the songs in order BECAUSE THEY CAN BE LISTENED TO AND APPRECIATED IN ANY WAY. Kanye MIGHT just be an asshole, but MBDTF just shows why one must (or must not, depending on your perspective on the matter) detach the artist from his art.
my favorite kanye album of all time and I agree with most of what you say except for so appalled, that song is one of my favorites because cyhi ripppppped his verse. the RZA shouldn't have been on that song but everyone knows the story behind that so it's funny that he's on it
I haven't listen to kayne for long I was introduced to him like 2 years ago and heard a few big songs before that but when the life of pablo came out this year I gave it a try and it is my most listened too album probably ever I have been checking out his other albums recently and my beautiful dark twisted fantasy changed my music standards forever everything just goes so well together and his music has changed my life

Gami you gotta do more piano beats, too many guitar beats.
You dont listen to enough kanye then cuz he uses piano a shitton of times
@@alphalax7747 what are you talking about bruh? Nobody said nothing about Kanye?
@@ax3135 this is literally a kanye video
I love when people redo hiphop beats with a piano or violin or a whole orchestra, hip hop producers are underrated
HotShotMamma When people make a cover of his beats using them, I don’t think he’s saying kanye doesn’t use instruments to make his music
you mean musicians are underrated. All producers do is sample past songs and mix
john d no...they don’t
only some producers
There is a whole album of kanye just doing that its called late orchestratiom
The best part is, I know a lot of people that you could play this for and they would call it beautiful, but then tell them it was all written by Kanye and it becomes "trash"
YES!
+Riley Boadwine FeelsBadMan
truth
+Riley Boadwine The thing is Kanye has probably not written a single one of these melodies.

@@Wheresmy240 You are such sheep. Wear pink shirts if you like them. Just because a musician does it, doesn't make it any different or any better!

I think he was judged to quickly. If you add up what hes been saying it all makes alot of sense even his most contradictory statements. For me anyway
Kanye west albums got darker and darker
I'd say 808 is the darkest
Graduation is the happiest sounding
MBDTF is the most expressive
And Tlop is his craziest
+Toasted Memes yeezus def the craziest
I'm not a fan of yeezus, to me its an overstatement
Tlop has freestyle 4 which is definitely his craziest song
Yeezus is darker than TLOP tho
+Toasted Memes no way graduation is the happiest college dropout is basically all about good vibes and succeeding in the face of adversity my dude. I'd say that's the happiest.
You know that after this video ended the dude had a crazy reaction after pulling that off flawlessly
this videos has a good amount of flaws
Could you do better?
how is it relevant if he can do better?

Finally my recommended does me right. The runaway part was amazing a full video of that would be so cool.
I was recommended this to, UA-cam finally showed me something worth watching 😂
same dude so glad I was shown this
Yeah I loved the motion he put into a lot of them but I swear runaway was like the only that lacked it which is ironic
Just reading through the comments like: Damn Kanye don't even get this much love
damn bruh
Sadly true
That's fuckin sad. Say what you will about Ye but he is one of the greatest artists of our time.

+SonicFan420 okay..?
Morgan Freeman its a rly good song, just thought people might wanna listen to it if they liked the outro lol

exactly
That song came out when I was in third grade before I even knew who Kanye was and I still knew it then which is crazy

Factz
Wil Ryan not his biggest though either
The most amazing part is the memorization. Insane.
Max Shirley muscle memory, it’s motor skills memory
Actually memorization just comes over time, so if you play a song enough it is muscle memory, so his talent and hand coordination is probably the most amazing part, and the fact that he never messes up

A lot of them were spot on though like Wolves, Stronger and Runaway
Kanye'a work is more staccato than this. The pianist is using too much sustain pedal. But it's still nice to the ears.
Famous was great. And to your question, my favorite is either College Dropout or MBDTF. Love the chipmunk sounds on CD and the fresh and hungry sound of it all. MBDTF has some powerful numbers with some pretty deep lyrics.

That
and the other
Yep. Anyone who says they aren't his two best albums are lying. Made at the two points in his career when he was most hungry and you could really tell
KaizerMan agreed. He was young and hungry to prove himself with CD and MBDTF became his comeback after 808s, he really wanted to showcase himself at his best.
Insanely talented. Can't believe you pulled this off almost flawlessly all in one take
this deserve so much more attention
The way you played Bound 2 is just amazing. From 8:50 I had chills
Very good! Blame game would have been a good song to include imo
+RelaxAndTroll Pure speculation here, but he may not have included Blame Game because the piano part is actually a sample of Aphex Twin. Nothing against Kanye or sample-based music (MBDTF is one of my favorite albums of all time), but to include someone else's piano part in The Evolution of Kanye just seems a little off imo, and perhaps the pianist felt the same way.
+Will Smith But stronger is included??
Jeremy Zeeky yes because its an electronic sample. I get what he means, blame game is a direct piano sample from another artist and if he played that its not really showing Kanye's creativity.
RelaxAndTroll I don't know if I follow your logic. Very likely it's just going over my head lol. But in both cases Kanye didnt make the original song of "Stronger" and "Blame Game". The only difference is the instrument no?
+Jeremy Zeeky Stronger gets a pass because its original song is sampled too.
"Yeezy Yeezy its your boy Max B whats going on..."
You just put an amazing spin on my absolute favorite musician. You sir, are incredible!
I can't stop myself coming back here again and again
You my friend are truly amazing :)
a man of honor
Imagine if this video was made after “Lift Yourself” and he would have to transcribe Poopy-di scoop.
You're so talented this will hit 1 mil in no time believe me
3:27 Can't tell me nothing was so litttt🔥🔥
I can't even count how many times I got goosebumps from listening to this!!!!
Incredible. Reddi't /r/hiphopheads + /r/kanye is loving you. Wouldn't be surprised if someone from Kanye's team reached out in the future.
You should really continue this and make a series out of it. This was stunning.
This was absolutely incredible playing. Crazy talented and the arrangements were off the charts! No pun intended. 😊
Robocop is so beautiful. that song hardly gets any love. thank you
i love this. so much.
When New Slaves hit i was like damnnn
Graduation is the best album of all time and I loved the CTMN and Homecoming because those are my 2 fav songs of all time. I always play Homecoming on the piano
and I play by ear too so that's cool
This is awesome! I think an entire cover of 808's and heartbreaks would be amazing.
Whenever I hear someone call Kanye's discography trash, I'll just show them this video. Thanks for doing this; you killed it!!
One of the best UA-cam videos I’ve ever seen. Hands down. Instant sub

Amazing work!
I wanted to cry because it was soo amazing and beautiful
Yeezus, This is amazing!
family business is just too beautiful.. kanye got so much soul
MBDTF is hands-down the most musically flawless album I've heard so far, with all of the tracks meshing together perfectly regardless how or when you listen to them.
-"Runaway" will always dominate a special place in my heart
-"Gorgeous" and "POWER" simply showcase Kanye's lyrical flow like no other song can
-"Dark Fantasy" was hands-down a perfect intro for the album.
-"Lost in the World" culminates in an outro that left the listener thoroughly satisfied but also begging for a replay
-How underrated "Devil in a New Dress" is will always confound me.
-Even "Hell of a Life", the album's worst track, easily ranks within the top 30 Kanye songs.
-Tbh "So Appalled" is a pretty mediocre track for me, but it doesn't interrupt the flow of the album in any way
I didn't bother listing the songs in order BECAUSE THEY CAN BE LISTENED TO AND APPRECIATED IN ANY WAY. Kanye MIGHT just be an asshole, but MBDTF just shows why one must (or must not, depending on your perspective on the matter) detach the artist from his art.
I love Devil in a new dress
ofcoursewetran runaway is amazing. Gorgeous is one of my favs too.
my favorite kanye album of all time and I agree with most of what you say except for so appalled, that song is one of my favorites because cyhi ripppppped his verse. the RZA shouldn't have been on that song but everyone knows the story behind that so it's funny that he's on it
Best album is definitely MBDTF
I haven't listen to kayne for long I was introduced to him like 2 years ago and heard a few big songs before that but when the life of pablo came out this year I gave it a try and it is my most listened too album probably ever I have been checking out his other albums recently and my beautiful dark twisted fantasy changed my music standards forever everything just goes so well together and his music has changed my life
Isaiah Brazen how old are you
Thefoodgood Jeff 16?
