I would posit that he is not entirely hip hop, nor exactly pop, or rock, or really any genre really and that is what makes him so interesting since he is not only lyrically gifted but works with musicians and they obviously have a sense of melody and can carry a tune. His uniqueness is one more reason I would offer that elevates him to "rock" god status imho. Be very interesting to see where his arc of fame carries him.
