Just cite some examples.

'Late Registration' was stunning, but Kanye didn't do the grunt work of that production--it was someone who actually fit the mold of what Q mentioned with the piccolos and the string sections: Jon Brion.

The best joints on "Graduation" weren't even done by Kanye.

Which joints on the new one do you think would impress Q?

I'm not trying to say that Kanye isn't talented, because he surely is. I do think that his production talent / prowess is not not something that would be guaranteed to impress any classically trained musician, especially considering the fact that he's outsourcing so much of it or building so much of it off of samples.
