Hell no.
Please enlighten me on the musical instruments that Kanye has mastered. The guy can't even sing on pitch.
First thing we had to do in Music Theory class was work on perfect pitch. We had to be able to sight sing music in the correct key and pitch without so much as a starting note to let us know if we were singing the correct pitch.
I still have my old music theory books and the book entitled "Sight Singing And Ear Training".
Dude can't even sing on pitch. Much less be a master of any instrument.
Doesn't mean he's not a "genius".
I think Bob Dylan is a genius, and he can't sing on pitch either lol. (though in fairness...Bob Dylan can actually play guitar, piano, harmonica, drums and several other instruments)
My point is...if Kanye is secretly a musician...he's kept it hidden real well.
I'd love to hear him jam with somebody who really IS a musician and a genius...how about Kanye VS Prince?

Dylan can actually sing on pitch, he just chooses not to since he is more concerned with imbuing his songs with character than being pitch perfect. Remember when he had that pissing match with Sinatra about singing?
