Kanye West and Chicago

My friends and I tossed around this topic over a couple of 312's the other night. Some of you may not be very familiar with Kanye, but he is the biggest hip hop star in the country - if not the world right now. 1. Is Kanye West the biggest Chicago pop icon? (besides Oprah and MJ) 2. Do you feel that he portrays Chicago in a positive light? 3. What sort of impact may he have on our community? ---------------------------- "And you say Chi city We don't stop naw we don't quit" Common / Kanye BE>
