*video of kanye having a breakdown*: 10M views *video of kanye having an intelligent discussion*: 800k views its clear why so many have such a warped image of who he is....
Yeah "only" 21 Grammys, 3 albums on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" MBDTF, late registration, college dropout, also on Rolling Stone's the 40 most groundbreaking albums of all time - 808s & Heartbreak, and 6 multi platinum critically acclaimed albums. Kanye haters can't stand the fact that he's a legend.
Saqib Munir this a hella late reply but one thing i dont think you understand is that statistics and awards are not what makes somebody great, kanye is great because he is exactly who he is, hes unfiltered and will not bend to the will of people in the music/fashion industry. Speaking your mind, being authentic, and doing the same in your pursuit is achieving greatness. He just happens to make incredible music too
richardhalo I feel you man, I used too be like you, but it will pass, if you give him a chance and really listen to him, to what he say when he's not angry, you'll understand.
Jean-Luc DeCoster who TF is this Kayne west ? just because everyone talks about this guy doesn't mean I care or anyone else should. idc about you not caring :D
100% of the people who have commented on this comment so far blindly hate Kanye so much they are willing to dumb themselves down just to completely bypass the philosophy behind the quote and call it stupid. So brain dead honestly.
"Whats the main thing that makes magic, magic? The fact that no one believes its possible." "They just let me dream. They supported me. They pushed me. They didnt set me up to be inside of a box." "We were born into a broken world and we're like, the clean up crew." "Remember this moment. Because it wont always be like this." "Just help. Just do everything you got, give everything you got." "Our progress needs to less about what i like to see, or how we're going to control each other, but more about how we're gonna give to each other."
He deserves it. I may not agree with everything he says or like all his music but he's far braver than most rappers, or even celebrities for that matter. He's an uncompromising artist.
Michael Bing OK you create a legenderay impact in the music world , with 21 Grammy awards,sell millions of albums, make your own fashion line,own your personal record label but wait there's more ☺
people will never understand him but he is extremely articulate and intelligent! sometimes he'll say shit that might come out the wrong way but if you take time and think about what he has to say and how he says it you'll see that he makes a lot of sense.
he's been in legal issues and I think his EGO and talent has no right for president plus i would leave the USA if he really ran and won and I would tell the entire USA to come with me. (except fans of dum old Kayne)
Justin Deloatch Heart? You don't need a heart to run a country. Thats exactly what Obama has too much of. You need brains and power to lead a country, and that's what trump has.
I don't understand why people accuse Kanye of "talking white." When you take a moment to think about what that phrase means, you'll realize how stupid it is. If anything, speech patterns and vernacular vary among CLASS NOT RACE. Kanye grew up upper-middle class so don't expect to talk like he grew up in Bed Stuy.
I think there point is if you listen to how he spoke while he was on his come up in interviews, his speaking style has changed & this is coming from a true Yae fan since 03’ thru the wire days !
Reasons Why You Should Like Kanye West 1)He is a happy person 2)He is an honest person 3)He speaks the truth 4)When he is on stage you can tell that he's trying his best 5)He doesn't let hate get to him
Something has to be said for a man who starts by pointing to the sky and says I will be there one day. And within the same decade has his hand in multiple creative industries with critical acclaim. And popular mass recognition. This spot on the 100 most influential people was well deserved for Mr. Kanye Omari West. *Good job!*
Stan Stuben also an accomplished artist with all his albums reaching #1, 21 grammies and platinum sales for every masterpiece of an album he puts out. And why did you use the N word unnecessarily?
Quagmire97 figured that out when all i see on FB on a Kanye link is a 30-40 year old or middle aged *insert skin colour here* person commenting shit when they haven't heard his stuff. But not all of those type of people are haters.
THat's like saying imagine hip-hop without Drake, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Juice WRLd, etc. Ye is one of the most influential artists of all time.
Most people will learn from Kanye when he dies... I love and I'm learning Kanye while he alive. I love Kanye west existence. He the biggest threat to the evil people (CEOs of earth) . Kanye is the one pac was talking about when he said "I will spark the brain that will change the world"
Everyone hates on him. This man came from nothing and had many people doubt him. Although he is a genius... he humbled himself by comparing himself to school teachers
So happy that Kanye is getting some positive recognition in the public eye for once. Kanye is a HUGE inspiration of mine in terms of how I want to dress, how I want to live, and how I set up my dreams. Kanye is such a gift to me because his music gives me energy to move through the world, his personality and relentless confidence gives me an attitude to aspire to, and his unique craft gives me momentum to really go for my goals. So glad that I exist in the time of Kanye West.
He's passionate about what he does. This is his life and he loves what he does. As a musician myself, I can relate. I'm passionate about what I do. I love to create sounds that I never heard before.
I love this interview. It’s so soothing. It’s one of the rare clips where he is super calm. Only one playing in the background just competes the vibe 🧡
I have never met anyone that didn't either hate or love Kanye. What that means to me is that no one can ignore him, and that he represents something much deeper than a rapper or fashion designer. His presence on a persons mind elicits the deepest response no matter who you are. I personally love him. What must it say about a person if they hate him?
Truly an inspirational artist. He will always be remembered for the impact his art has had on this world. I am proud of time for being brave enough to be truthful about who deserves this title. Kanye West - The Misunderstood Genius
Most people who hate on him don't truly understand him, this man has platinum albums, an extremely successful label, and an extremely successful fashion company, any other man under managing all those lives would crack, so who cares if he's got a hella big ego, hell, he earned that ego through hard work.
Kanye tend to speak some rad shit lately, its like he had a talk with someone after his last rant, he switched up 180 degrees. Talking about human nation as a whole and being cleaning crew in a broken world, i ain't no chief keef but - that's that shit i do like. If he ain't gonna change his course he might become the greatest voice of our era.
Still an amazing entertainer. Definately my favorite rapper. This man inspired me alot. About music. About not caring what people think. About creativity. How many of you got respect for Kanye West?
All the haters make me love this man even more. And I think we as Kanye fans need to spread his message to the world the best way we can. By not letting people judge us and not setting limits for ourselves. But we also need to check ourselves and not come off as assholes and turn people off. Kanye already did that lol. Now it’s our turn to be the messengers and show the world our love and passion and let everybody float around in harmony.
This is what I mean when I try to explain to people that *mental illness is a brain that's different, not a brain that's broken.* It has to be supported, and when it isn't, shit breaks because that brain refuses to take the B.S. of life. It's going to find a way to get this person either out of life or really living life. We don't always have to agree; but I appreciate the way Kanye thinks about life because my bipolar ass brain sees life like that too.
Kayne is a messenger from all falls down, Jesus Walks , Diamonds Are From Sierra Leone to New Slaves to fighting for change in prison reform currently!! No one's perfect
Before i hated this guy by following media, one time listened him fully on a interview, it changed 100% my opinion to him, he thinks more than most of ppl does. He spoke misunderstanding things than they started making sense. When he ran for President, at that point i thought he was kidding. Saw media made a crazy image on his rally, i thought i was wrong about him, until watching a whole speech. It shows me he ran President not for winning purpose but wants his voice to be heard, he focuses alot about his community, wants the best to build a better life for black community by education, not be leaded by any political party. Did u realize that we made a music video, and started ran for President after all black lives matter movement, because he cares alot for his people. I dont idolize any celeb but this guy.
I am a 33 year old woman who doesn't have much interest in rap music/world but Kanye has recently become my go to when I need motivation/inspiration to keep going and keep pushing for a better version of me.
And this is why Kanye west is my idol, I can meet any other celebrities and be like oh wassup, but when the day comes that I meet Kanye I might pass out
That part about his parents supporting him super important. When I was 12-13, I wanted to build a computer to make animations or play modded minecraft on and my parents just laughed it off. Now that I finally built one at age 20 it’s beyond not the same. It hurts to think about what might’ve been, even if it was small. I just want to create art
I just love him, grow up listening to him with my sister we are craze loving him so much , I don't care if people say mean things about him but to me Kanye west was one person who I relate mylife with, I hope he remains strong and prosperous
Love you Kanye what people don't understand is that you are human just like the rest of us and that your able to be under pressure and experience life's heartbreaks and over all set backs . But the fact that your still able to do what you love under the pressure of society's constant judgement and surveillance of you is amazing . You are so legendary everything you have done in your career up to this point has made your mom very proud and has amazed the world and your fans !!!
