Inspiration

Yeezus

What it does

  • Provide API endpoints
  • Learn from Kanye's lyrical wisdom using Markov Chains
  • Create songs that actually somewhat rhyme
  • Tweet more sensibly than Yeezy himself

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Implementing a functioning RESTful API
  • Analyzing and learning from over 7,000 lines of lyrics

What we learned
