Why do rappers constantly ruin their albums with "skits"?
Example; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTBI51JmnF8
Kanye ruins one of the best songs from an amazing album because he felt that having chris fuking rock talking on the phone for 5 minutes added some artistic merit??? I don't understand it.
Because children (most rap fans) find them funny.

IDK I'm not a huge fan of the part, but its one of the main parts that me and all my boys would shout out the words, I think those moments you share make them more classic

this basically
it's just up-keeping the tradition, also phone calls add immersion to hip hop albums desu

When used properly on a concept album, skits can help explain or add to a story that the artist is trying to tell (Deltron 3030 for example).
Ohh my God
Baby, you done took this shit to another mother fucking level!
Now a neighborhood nigga like me ain't supposed to be getting no album like this
God damn, God damn!
Who taught you how to get sexy for a nigga?
Yo you took your rap game up a whole 'nother level!
This is some Cirque du Soleil album now! Shit!
You done went all porno on a nigga, okay? And I, and I love it...
And I thank you, I thank you, my dick thanks you!
How did you learn, how... how did your production game come up?
I was hearing parts of your music I'd never heard before!
I was in there like "Oh, shit! I never been here before!
I've never even seen this part of Kanye town before!"
It's like you got this shit re-upholstered or some shit. What the fuck happened?
Who, who the fuck got your music all re-upholstered?
You know what, I got to thank Yeezy. And when I see that nigga, I'mma thank him. I'mma buy the album, I'mma download that motherfucker, I'm-a shoot a bootlegger!
That's how good I feel about this nigga
Oww, I still can't believe you got me this album!
This motherfucker is the exact motherfucker I wanted!
Even with the Aphex Twin sample! This is the sample I wanted!
I heard this shit, I saw it, Twin had this shit on in Drukqs!
I remember, Richard had this motherfucker on in Drukqs!
That's right, that's right! Yo yo babe, yo yo this is the best birthday ever!
Where you learn to treat a nigga like this?

Skits are just intros on separate tracks. It's the part of the song that the radio DJ doesn't have to play on the air. Skip them if you're just hopping from track to track, but it's part of the album experience when going from beginning to end. It's how it (mostly) always was.

Because rappers are idiots

im sure kanye did that because he actually did have amber rose buttdial him during sex while cheating on him with that wiz khalifa nigga
