Yup, yup, not really "imitates" but he's definitely been influenced by Kanye, both in Clipse and in his Kanye-produced GOOD music solo work.
You just named three of the most obvious examples of what I'm talking about and then laughed like you didn't know you were answering your own question very accurately.
There also Drake, J. Cole (first 2 albums are straight Kanye rips... for both of these guys actually), Cudi, Future, Big Sean, Tree, Desiigner, The Weeknd, Chief Keef, Lupe... I could honestly go on, and nobody who's paid any attention at all to hip-hop in the past decade would disagree one bit.
Not to mention his influence as a producer, which precedes his influence as a rapper or pop artist. Don't act like you don't know all of this damn well.
