When it comes to hip-hop in 2016, Kanye West has been dominating the conversation. Whether it's a new album, a surprise studio collaboration, teaming up with a major brand or using Twitter as a sounding board, he continuously makes headlines for every move he makes.

Last month, Yeezy dropped his seventh solo LP, The Life of Pablo, after four title changes, edited tracklists and a seemingly endless amount of collaborators. While his road to debuting the project was quite the journey of triumphs and tribulations, the music is what matters most. To get to this point, the Chi-town MC has blessed fans with solid, standout material ranging from mixtape cuts, album singles and Grammy-winning efforts over the years.

With so many songs in this rap powerhouse's catalog, XXL is highlighting some of the best and pitting them against each other to find out which one reigns supreme according to you, the fans. Thirty-two tracks have been selected from each of his seven albums to compete.

"Jesus Walks" is undoubtedly one of the most famous Kanye songs of all time. The fourth single off of his debut album, The College Dropout, peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. The track won the 2005 Grammy Award for Best Rap Song and was nominated for Song of the Year. "Paranoid" appears on 'Ye's fourth studio LP, 808s & Heartbreak. Although there were rumors that Rihanna was to be the main feature, when the song came out, U.K. musician Mr. Hudson appeared.
