Two-Hour Live Interview With Kanye West (Video)
January 14, 2016
People’s misunderstanding of me is a misunderstanding of themselves.
– Kanye West
Okay, say what you will about Kanye (and you will, just the way it is), but the man is a phenomenon. And as such, we are almost equally blessed and stressed by what we know and think we know about him. And even when so-called ‘craziness’ comes to light related to dude, we’re more likely to run toward it than away. But this low-key live interview interaction with Ye gives us another look at the man, dispelling some myths (letting others ride), talking in the way of a misunderstood legend. Think John Lennon back in the day when watching this (uh oh, might have to do some more Googling, ha).
Good watch. Right under two hours… wow! Full transcript available, too.

Kanye West – “When I See It”
October 29, 2015
Spent the whole summer trying to be at the wrong place at the right time…
Maybe Yeezy’s singing li’l shorty to his ‘shawty’ (Kim) over The Weeknd’s “Tell Your Friends†instrumental. “When I See It” is an electro-mellow melody that’s over with before you know it. Cool though.
Kanye West Performing “Gold Digger” Back In 2003 (Video)
September 25, 2015
Yeezus H. West! Back before Ye went beast mode in the game, he was doing conference gigs just like a lot of cats… only they did not likely have John Legend on the keys. Ha!
The beat is waaaay different, less-evolved than what you’d recognize as “Gold Digger” but listen to the lyrics and there is no doubt. Watch some throwback Kanye goodness.

Just think… Whatever you think about the man, having Yeezus show up and give a real talk at your graduation would rate high among your college memories.

Wow. Start your day off with joy. Check out a much younger Kanye West and his mom (Donda) rap a version of his single from his album “Late Registration” – “Hey Mama.” Whatever you feel about Mr. Ye-turned-Yeezus today, you gotta love this clip.

February 26, 2015
Kanye cracks me up when his vocal inflections in interviews keep changing up. It’s like people who use a certain voice when they are working in a corporate environment as compared to how they REALLY speak when they are off work, the tie is off, & they get around your boys talking sh*t. Hahaaaa! Check out another interesting interview of Kanye with BBC 1 Radio’s Zane Lowe as the Chicago icon discusses everything from the possibility of having more kids, the direction of his new album, dealing with the fashion industry, giving props to Drake & more. He also breaks down in tears when discussing his friend in the fashion industry that passed.

Kanye West feat. Paul McCartney – “Only One” (Video)
January 29, 2015
Kanye West is the greatest hip hop artist of this generation & he consistently proves it. A keen attention to detail, socially relevant commentary within his music, an a willingness to take risks. Check out this latest video called ‘Only One’ featuring Sir Paul McCartney which is dedicated to Kanye’s beautiful daughter ‘Nori’. I don’t usually get caught up into celebrity babies & crap like that, but Kanye & Kim Kardashian most definitely have the cutest kid amongst new celebrity parents. As a fan of Kanye West the artist, I’m definitely looking forward to what he hits us with next.

December 9, 2014
How incredible is this?!?!? A fan-made video (uploaded by John Colandra) that takes the full essence and power of all the concert performances of the “Yeezus” Tour and put it into a two-hour compilation film! It’s like one seamless show with Kendrick Lamar as the opener. If you are Kanye West, you should watch and be amazed… maybe even shed a tear over the love you are getting from a fan like this. If you are not Kanye, hell you might shed a tear, too. Beautiful work!
