His rants are a bit annoying, but I def see someone breakign down barriers. Yeezus was a good unique album (Andre 3,000s album was still better tho). The lyrics made perfect sense for todays industry, giving a lot of insight on how they're going crazy because of the present day creative freedom (internet), he predicted it before Nipsey sold his $100 album. Kanye's designs and artistic outlooks are pretty forward thinking, I can't even lie. I used to be subscribed to his blog waaaay back in the day. and the shyt he'd post on there 3-4 years later would become a trend. We'd sit in class and just be like
at some of the shyt he'd post, and be like "man that'll never trend" then bam, sure enough a few years later I see it. I think I can find an article on this.
dude has already done designs for a few euro designers that he never got credit for, I think that's what pisses him off, they'd rather steal from him then let him do his thing, he's tired of being a slave. upsetting a creative will just make them louder and crazier lol. what sucks about being a creative is that 8 out of 10 times you wont get credit for shyt, because non-creative people are like leeches, quick to steal because they tend to be better promoters, networkers than the zoned out artistic person, Kanye is that voice that's fed up with it, and now with the age of information, can lash out. Of course those that aren't artists will just see him as being a cry baby, he's supposed to just swallow it, like those before him. Anyways Im going to cut this post short, let me post that link.
