does. Even Egyptian, Greek and Roman mythology attributed some sense of greater purpose to their deities that they worshipped.
Kanye doesn’t write lyrics for the sake of greater understanding or greater debate in the general public. Nor does Kanye produce controversial art as an attempt to take a storied and valued symbol in society, turn it on it’s head and make us question why we do what we do. His lyrics may do that in and of themselves, but it seems that Kanye doesn’t really care to engage that. For instance, Lupe Fiasco’s interviews and persona back up his sometimes incendiary lyrics, and vice versa; what we hear in an interview from Lupe is what we hear in his lyrics. Kanye, on the other hand, gives off this radical antiestablishment running borderline loose cannon in his lyrics, and then gives off this space cadet, Valley girl persona when he has to speak in front of cameras. It’s almost as if he’s not here when you hear him give interviews or speak to a camera.
I guess for Kanye, Yeezus + A new slave = a Confederate c00n. I’m not here for it, so have fun with that one bro.
