Kanye West for three hours on Joe Rogan

He 100% sees himself as a Christ-like savior or at minimum a prophet, and the newfound religiosity is a way for him to have more direct influence over people and inflate his ego to new heights. He talks about lowering himself to the office of President of the United States as if it’s massively beneath him but that it’s his God-given destiny, and how he tells other people what to do via God speaking through him.

Oh boy.
It’s a bad combination for sure
 
I love Kanye but I turned it off after 35 minutes. He's a genuinely good dude who means well but this is just him going off on random tangents about various things. I think I get the picture and don't need to spend another 2.5 hours watching this.

What a liberating feeling

FREE EXPRESSION

The ability to not only voice your ideas but see them through

Isn't that all people really want?? I know I do

Just happy that he has the confidence, belief, and ability to express himself freely

He is successful and he deserves it all but you cant tell me they guy isn't full of himself. The bad thing about being full of yourself is that you are completely oblivious to your own faults and no matter what anyone says you will think they are wrong and you are right.

People calling him arrogant..
Maube he`s just succesful and he knows it.

It’s kind sad people laughing at kanye it’s pretty obvious this dude has some serious mental issues. i tried watching it but after about 20 min of kanye’s chaotic stuff i gave up.

Naaaah, he is undoubtedly troubled (ego) but is surrounded by people that enable it.

The parts of this interview I watched, Joe Rogan was kissing ass and agreeing with all the insane shit he was saying.

It's been going on far too long to have sympathy for him or anyone around him.

Toothpaste is a gate-way to Mouthwash.

Next thing you know it'll be flossing, and I don't mean the Fortnite dance.
 
Kanye says that Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee were both murdered. Joe corrects him and explains the details. Kanye seems distraught over being contradicted.

Ye’s in a massive reality distortion bubble where no one pushes back against his nonsense.

Obsessed with deaths of several celebs that were natural but he believes were conspiracy murders to take down innovators like him. Paranoid delusions.


Kanye West is the epitome of the "oh i'm an idea person, i lack the skills for all the things i have ideas for so other people can do it for me, i'm an idea person" . Of course that kind of attitude never makes anything happen because you lack the sense or ability to work towards each individual goal which minimum puts you in the hole for about 10k hours of steady focus.

Unfortunately unlike most people ..he ended up with money and now you see that personality and how it magnifies times 1000. You didnt design those shoes , a designer did..you just shook and nodded your head.

A classic from the ages when he rants about new cars and spaceships.

He announces is a 'gif' from his iPhone is an "iPlane". This is the Oval office and he was let rant for ages in front of the president.



Anyone defending him needs their head checked, the dudes ego exploded long ago.

(Also, his pin is ... )

EDIT: Kicks off about the 6m mark.

I was really looking forward to this one. I am not sure I can make it to the 30 minute mark.

Kanye is just incoherent to me. He clearly thinks in a different way, but I need some sort of structure to the thoughts to make use of what he's saying. Whenever Joe asks a question, I don't know what the fuck Kanye will even talk about. He starts off asking about running for President, and that leads Kanye to bring conspiracies about murder, then the music industry and now starting a church.

I kept feeling like the interview was reminding me of something and then I realized what it was. It's a comedy bit that's decades old and of no relation. It's the original Mama's Family skit from the Carol Burnett show. There was a Dick Van Dyke episode where he appears as an old, drunk love interest of the daughter. They get together to play Password (old TV game show with a home version) and Tim Conway shows up as his dunce/idiot character to be the 4th player. The whole joke of the skit is people reading clues to Tim Conway's character and him responding with bizarre, unrelated answers that only make sense to him. He then explains his answer and the explanation is more ridiculous than the original answer.

That's what I feel like whenever Kanye starts answering Rogan on anything.

I don’t care who designed what, but you don’t just ”end up” with a billion dollar net worth (as verified by Forbes) just by nodding your head. Give the man some fucking credit.

But yes, he is full of himself, to put it mildly. I think the best part of the interview was when he said that he never makes a wrong decision if given all the information. It’s his superpower.

He’s clearly manic and full of himself, but I have to admit that the line between genius and insanity is sometimes very thin.

Also, he loves the Star Wars prequels so he can’t be that bad, and I’m 100% serious when I say this.

Why does Joe always nod in agreement to some of the dumbest shit ever? I can see where Kanye is coming from on some points but most of the time it was crazy nonsense. Would be nice if Joe questioned him more on those.

Joe tries to get onto the same wavelength as his guests, understand them, and make them comfortable. To do that with Kanye he needs to be mostly credulous.

JRE always felt incomplete without Kanye, sounds like he’s still battling through some shit never the less Kanye as we understand is the GOAT overshadowed by nobody and has become one of the top overall celebrities.
