Kanye West talks too much. He's an egomaniac. His music's brilliant, but does that give him the excuse to rant like he does? These are probably things you have heard at some point over the past few years. This attention has increased since his mother's death, but it seems like he's acting out.
This weekend at the Big Chill Music Festival he went on a rant about how people don't understand him. In turn he compared himself to Hitler. He thinks that as time passes, people'll understand. He also went on to say how he wants to change things like Michael Jordan. I think what Kanye needs to do is be him.
That's when we like him. It's like the cousin who always comes to the party and then gets too comfortable and blabbing about himself. Kanye has his place in pop culture. It might be an annoying place, but such is life. I think if he wasn't the way he was, he wouldn't be himself.
Which is probably why Jay-Z knows how to work with him. The trailer for their epic Watch the Throne EP was released and despite rumors of disagreements, it's obvious that Kanye knows Jay is his boss and without that, he wouldn't be where he is.
But is Jay-Z to blame for giving us the Don of Louis Vuitton? No. For all of Kanye's craziness, he is talented. And for that he probably will be crazy as long as we give him a space on our blog, newspaper, or assorted source of information. But hey, it's all entertainment right?
