      @@NukemNash I think this is why he has managed to survive the scene as long as he has despite the press cyclically trying to destroy his image...his fans think and experience life similarly to Kanye. So when he talks about how to be popular...and says it’s about being yourself and showing the world your view through your art-being authentic...and then if you’re being real, people feel that and relate to you, and that’s how you be popular, because it’s about that universal way of experiencing life that we share, and Mr. West is able to, in almost every aspect, please us with his unhidden perspective and growth. Every time I think about Kanye I just think damn, I am so lucky to be alive to grow with his art and watch it all manifest in real time. Peace and love y’all 🌈

      I hate playing the comparison game but I think Kanye is just as influential and probably far more so than Tupac. Don't get me wrong Tupac is a GOAT but Kanye has blown the roof off of music and art and fashion. A true artist and entertainer and visionary. I think the word genius is thrown around a lot regarding Kanye and I think it's a title he truly deserves. So much inspiration, motivation, innovation, and drive.

    45:27 the song that got me into kanye. I remember being a sophomore in high school with a surface level taste in music hearing this come on Pandora in my Drawing class. It was as if I had never heard real music before. My friend was playing music on the stereo and I asked who this was, I'd never heard his type of sound ... Went home and listened to No Church in the Wild. I was hooked. Spent the rest of high school obsessed with Ye, attributing my entire personality change and confidence gain to him. He really made me more confident in myself. I carry that confidence to this day. Kanye really changed my life. The greatest artist of our generation. Influencing millions. Always going against the grain. Every album was an evolution, an adaptation, challenging his own thoughts and those around the world. Upset that I didn't get to see him live.

I just can’t imagine losing my rock. I’m a mommas boy too. Proud of it. Moved in across the street to her when she was in an abusive relationship w an alcoholic narcissist, had to protect her. He was on the Denver Broncos practice squad and comes from a family of super athletes. He outweighed me by over 100 lbs. he best me up several times which resulted in him being put behind bars when my neighbors called police.

    Kanye made me fall in love with music (808 & heartbreak had a big impact on my life). I was a freshman in college in a small poor country in Africa, away from my family with no friends, and obviously got bullied and all. But I held on strong. I got my engineering degree, and he became one of my 3 iconic inspirations alongside Einstein and Batman. He is the definition of change and Overcoming our fears. I am now in the US, getting my second degree and obviously a master's in Aero. Mr. West really changes people, and I consider this album to be the best of his work personally. He has earned the GOAT status no matter what. He's just ahead of everyone else. He has worked on about 20 albums and they are insane. He did not only lift himself but also changed Jay-Z, Pusha, Big Sean, Cudi, Wayne, Alicia, Teyana, Rihanna, Keri, T-Pain, Drake, Lamar, Weeknd, Travis, Ariana, and even Swift. He's not only a rapper, he's a Producer, Writer, Musician, Designer, Politician, Fashion, Actor, Philanthropist, Director, Historian, and above all a decent Human Being. I consider him to be above Disney, Mozart, Musk, and Jobs. He's way up there with Gandhi, Einstein, and Tesla. He's our person of the 21st century. I said what I said, just because am black doesn't mean it's less true. I really consider him to be the best there is. An absolute definition of Change.10 years later Kids See Ghosts is also changing people. He has transformed not only music/art but also generations of people. Thank you Kanye.

    This documentary is the prime example of show don't tell by letting preexisting interviews and videos and his music tell the journey of Kanye's career.
    And what also stood out to me is that the passing of his mother really did change how Kanye presented himself and why he makes music. Beforehand he was humble and wanted to be the best because he was given the chance to do so, and with 808s and beyond he just does it to be the best he can be and for the enjoyment of others.

But nonetheless I feel like when he went on stage and did that it was a cry for help and instead of people helping him everybody turn their back on him and bashed him and It just drove him deeper into depression.
