My favourite Kanye West song is Cops Shot the Kid because there's less backing on it and I like to hear his voice ringing out clearly without others singing too. The melody's memorable, as are the words and the rhythm is unforgettable.
It's a song with a clear message, so those who want to bring that sad episode to the eyes and ears of the world are helped by it. Some of his raps have been offensive to some people, but he believes he is speaking the words others have in their hearts.
