Kanye is clearly more of a genius than any of you, the dry erase board math proves it.
Plus, he likes fish sticks in his mouth. So there....
Exactly, irrelevant music, if its even music at all.
One of the reasons why I don’t have Apple Music anymore, it’s too hip hop centric. Beats Music is crap!
idk why people complain about things they were never going to be a part of anyway
as in why do you care
Sure, it’s been studied pretty extensively. Here is one:
Since ancient times, the observation has been made that extremely creative individuals were unusual in many ways and it has been suggested that psychological processes akin to those observed in madness might be an important component of the special abilities of genius. In the research into the connection between creativity and psychopathology a theoretical connection has been drawn between creative functioning and unusual or regressed thinking processes,[2] affective symptoms,[3,4] personality traits and values[2,4] and behavioural characteristics. Almost any extraordinary performance or creative achievement, then – whether it is in writing, music, poetry, philosophy, dance, art, sculpture or intellectual discovery – could be said to be the variants of the belief that there can be “no great genius without some touch of madness”.
Here is another (and Kanye has admitted to being diagnosed as bipolar):
The relationship between creativity and mood disorders
Nancy C. Andreasen, MD, PhDAnecdotally, there are many examples of striking associations between creativity and mood disorders, and particularly bipolar disorder.
Kanye West is one of the greatest artists of the past 200 years and anyone who doesn't see that is a fool who is stuck in mediocrity.
The theory is that “greatness” is found when pushing your brain / mood to the max. That is why bipolar individuals create better art while either on a manic high - or a depressive low (think Van Gogh).
You generally can’t create greatness while staying in the middle - it’s found at the edges, and that’s what bipolar individuals frequently experience.

What “has-been” has live-streamed 3 listening events in a row with no album out?
Please. 🙄
To everyone commenting on how much they hate Kanye:
1. He is a literal self-made billionaire (grew up poorer than most on this forum)
2. He can get all you haters talking about him by acting how we does
3. His art (music tickets as well as fashion apparel) sells out faster than Apple devices
Surely he did something right to get to where he is. Whether you like or despise his art or him is subjective, however the fact remains that he is smarter than about 99% of people.

You’re trying way too hard man. You do realize your OPINION is just that…an opinion and not fact. Wait, do you even know what an opinion is?
