Praise Yeezus.
Post your favourite Kanye songs, quotes, moments, etc.
"I’m like a vessel, and God has chosen me to be the voice and the connector."
"My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.”
“My music isn't just music - it's medicine.”
“I don't even listen to rap. My apartment is too nice to listen to rap in.”
“I open the debate…The 2nd verse of New Slaves is the best rap verse of all time….meaning … OF ALL TIME IN THE HISTORY OF RAP MUSIC, PERIOD."
"Dog, VIBE only gave my album a 4! I know my shit is better than a 4. A horrible album with just ‘Jesus Walks’ on it is a 4! C’mon dog, the demo version was a 5! You need to rate it again, but you’ll have to create a new rating system. It’s like this, by not giving my album a classic rating, you diminish your magazine’s credibility. And that’s real. Anyone who doesn't give [The College Dropout] a perfect score is lowering the integrity of the magazine."
"Don't ask me what I think the best song of last year was, because my opinion is the same as most of America's. It was 'Gold Digger."
"Really good people like me are scared of falling off. I'm totally scared of falling off. Just imagine it. Just imagine if I woke up one day and I was wack. What would I do then?"
"There can be a point where your records don't sell as much, or you're not as popular as you used to be. The best thing that any of the Backstreet Boys could have had was a really good woman in their life. I'm sure they had a lot of good pussy, but good pussy is fleeting. What's another word for 'good pussy' that's less vulgar?"
"There's nothing more to be said about music. I'm the fucking end-all, be-all of music. I know what I'm doing. I got it. It's on cruise control. Man, we talked about music for God knows how long! Now let's talk about how my fucking sweater didn't come back right from Korea. That's what's interesting me."
[On telling Radio 1 the three words that sum up his life were "Louis [Vuitton], porn, and church"] "Well, I spend more time watching porn and praying about it afterwards. Then I'll put on some Louis Vuitton and leave."
[After being asked if he was dating Kim Kardashian] "Pardon me, I'm coughing on the chardonnay I'm drinking out of a plastic cup right now. For those that don't have visuals."
"I've reached a point in my life where my Truman Show boat has hit the painting. And I've got to a point that Michael Jackson did not break down. I have reached the glass ceiling. As a creative person, as a celebrity. When I say that, it means, I want to do product, I am a product person. Not just clothing, but water bottle design, architecture, everything, you know, that you could think about. And I've been at it for 10 years, and I look around, and I say, wait a second, there's no one in this space that looks like me, and if they are, they're quiet as f***. So that means, wait a second, now we're seriously, like, in a civil rights movement."
