It just completely confuses how people can admire a musical artist that has zero musical ability. 

Speaking into autotuner != artist

Oh twesterm, you and your unyielding superiority complex.

I wouldn't say that since I don't really think I'm better than him, I'm probably just as good as him since I can't really sing either.

Kanye is a hip-hop artist, and a great one at that, regardless of his ego. Go look at his past albums, then come and tell me with an honest face that you could do as good as him, with or without autotune.

Nah man, Kanye can't sing at all. TWesterm is probably just at good as he it at singing.

Now, if we're talking about poetry, then none of the rap I've heard even comes near the level of, say, Robert Frost or Edgar Allen Poe.

If we are talking about mixing it all together, well, there are equally talented people on youtube, who make great videos using fruity loops. Look up "You play to win the game" on youtube.

Look at Elton John, or Queen. Can you honestly say Kanye is as good as Elton John at songwriting or singing?

He's good compared to his direct limited competition, but he pales in comparison to the greats.

All subjective... it all depends on your taste and what you like your greats differ greatly then mine... makes neither one of us right or wrong

There's opinion and there's fact.

Opinion: you like Kanye West, that is your personal preference.

Fact: Kanye West is an awful person and an awful musical artist.

It's perfectly cool if you like Kanye West, that's your preference, but that doesn't make him a good artist.
