That's why I said, "Well IDK?". Well I take that back, their are a lot of people who dislike R.Kelly because of what went down. Their are a lot of people who like Kanye, just like anywhere else. Some like Kellz,some don't, same thing apply too Kanye.

I think that Kells win over Kanye West becase he been in the game a long time.

r kelly overall, but kanye right now simly because he is hot now. R kelly has a generation of fans in chicago and the world dating way back to the 90's. Kanye can't touch kellz! but you cant compare that argument right now

Everybody has said it all, and I agree with you......I am just saying big ups to all my Chi-Town Brothers coming out of Chicago making it Big in this Game......I got luv for them all...... Big down for the haters.........

let me update this thread...i'm gonna say Kellz is more popular in chicago...kanye was recently put on blast via twitter by one radio dj from chicago because they say kanye doesn't rep the chi...he does all his radio interviews in NY, and when his albums release he never go there to sign cds for his fans..basically they were saying he forgot about the place...kinda like how they show donell jones no love in the chi either..because when he moved away in the 90's he forgot about chicago....hell some people forgot that donell jones is even from chicago....then the dj went on to shoutout kellz and other celebs from the chi who rep chicago to the fullest...i wonder if kanye ever contacted the radio dj...knowing his egotistical, narcissist ass he probably didn't....

Nice to hear something positive from someone in Chicago about Kellz for a change... Thanks Chelle

R kelly surpasses Kanye in so many areas. Kellz has been in the game for a long time, his music speaks for itself. Any song he has ever written is the shit. Everyone always says how creatvice Kanye's Raps are, but R kelly is by far the most creative singer on the plannet. I mean both sex weed and touchin insane!!

No way. I'm not from Chicago but many people from there associate the city with R. Kelly. He's always repping Chicago and I've heard many say that Kanye "sold-out" to Hollywood since he doesn't reside in Chicago like R. Kelly who goes to restaurants and other places in the Chi like he's not a celebrity.
