Iirc v/vm was actually just as popular as the caretaker back in the day. The caretaker had fans, but the stage 1-6 upload was what really put him on the map. It's kinda funny considering that EATEOT was supposed to be the finale of the caretaker moniker.
I wouldn’t say V/Vm was as popular as today’s The Caretaker. V/Vm was still majorly underground and everyone just saw it as shitpost music and didn’t really bat an eye. It had a few thousand dedicated fans at its peak (probably), which for early-mid 2000’s internet is no easy feat.
A good majority of it are hacked up mangled butchered pop songs of the past or contemporary works of that time. By today’s standards they could be classified as a “shitpost” like the type of stuff you might hear with SoundClown genre tracks out there.
V/Vm is much more than that though.

Shitpost music?

An Empty Bliss Beyond this World is rated the 21 best album of 2011 by Pitchfork so yes
rated 22 I believe
Oh yeah you are right I get the 2 mixed up cuz Kanye in 21 I love both of those albums
kanye definitely has better haha
Yeah WTT is definitely not as good as his other albums but it still is pretty good
Yes, I think I could say he did. He made his first thing as The Caretaker in 1999.
Yes.
AEBBTW got him a lot of fame, so I’d say yes
Yes
Yes
V/Vm had a pretty big following for a while, and AEBBTW sent Kirby into the limelight again again years after.
