Kanye West is what happens when you take a mildly talented individual and blow so much smoke up his ass that he thinks he's the greatest gift to the planet

And also get people to push the delusion onto others.
"Omg Joe Budden's podcast said this is the most influential album of the last 100 years, so I will keep saying that exact string of words on every social media site I can to prove that I, too, am in-the-know!"
Anyone ever see that "Homecoming" thing that J Cole did on HBO? He had people walking through a house with walkmans on listening to the album and staring at an N64 to feel what he felt when writing the music. It was the most hilarious thing ever. My friend eats that shit up and I had to hold back laughter while he played the first episode for me.

It was a fascinating listen. Listened to all of it in two different runs and, if anything, Kanye’s steam of consciousness keeps mine in check lol.
He has the mind of a child and I mean that in a complimentary way. All the wonderment. There are troubling times where his ego pops up but at the same time I’m not going to knock a man for his confidence. Either way, throughout it, he constantly would drop something that would make me think. That’s got to count for something.

He is clearly talented but the guy is sick. It must be crazy to live in the West-Kardashian household.
I hope he takes his medication before he looses it all. Once you are worth billions you don't get into a 50 million dollar debt by taking a single bad decision. He is right regarding some stuff like contracts fucking over artists commonly but you don't have to be a genius to know stuff like that. There are no true insights in what he thinks and says.

Between him talking about Star Wars and Tron as well as having this giant screen to watch Blade Runner 2049 on repeat on it seems like Kanye is a big scifi guy.

He was in serious debt. i remember him asking Mark Zuckerberg for money. I feel like this whole running for president is his attempt to make money and nothing else.
I listened to the whole thing a few days ago. Kanye West sounds like someone who's overdosed on social media and superhero films and now primarily interprets the world through these mediums.
His remarks about various subjects were incredibly superficial, almost as if he just gets all his knowledge from memes and tweets with eye-catching hashtags.
I thought the way Rogan kept flattering him and massaging his ego was really weak and irresponsible. West sounded like someone who has some form of schizophrenia, and Rogan's there telling him that's he's a visionary, that people don't understand him, etc.
The way he described West's child-like “lead with love and dignity” strategy for military conflict as being “very impressive” made me question his credibility. Nothing in Kanye's answer to that question at the end was very impressive.
This episode was just three hours of a delusional man talking about himself without ever really saying anything genuinely insightful or thought-provoking.

Rogan caters his attitude and demeanor to each of his guests the best that he can
That way he allows them to let their guard down. If he called Kanye out, it would've ended early with Kanye throwing a fit
Something tells me that Kanye West hasn't had someone put him in his place, apart from maybe Kim, in a long while.
He sounds like he doesnt even interact with people any more. Hes too incoherent and rambling.

Kanye west is a "whole picture" broad strokes kinda thinker. His logic makes all sorts of interesting connections and a lot of it is nonsense, but people with thought patterns like that are far more likely to bring forth new ideas due to their unpredictability and odd way of pairing lamb and tuna fish while the rest of the world is making peanut butter and jelly.
There was an interview with Fritz Lang and Jean Luc Godard I saw once where Fritz Lang couldn't understand why Godard often focuses the camera on objects and background characters rather than the main action. Godard retorted that he was interested in the whole picture and that's whath he wanted to capture. Kanye is like Godard.
Kanye is also self absorbed, but with the way everyone kissed his ass for the longest time, it's hard to blame him. With his level of fame and success, it's easy to understand why hea somewhat delusional. That would break me. Hell, my ego gets a little inflated just making a well liked post on here sometimes and I need life to kick me in the nuts to deflate it back down.
That recent Rogan interview with Maynard is much more coherent and my speed. Maynard is a legit musical genius and also a unique thinker, but they both share similarities in that regard.
