      It depends, he's talking about creating a outside observer in your own mind, catching your behaviour and actions is difficult but after many years I was able to do it but that outside observer doesn't have all the power, don't get obsessed with catching yourself doing things. You need a balance, humans are good at finding patterns but what about the patterns in between

Her birdman interview is the best proof of not getting anything out of a guest. Every guest basically takes over the interview and she just becomes a commentator

    I can still remember the moment that I stumbled upon J. Cole. It was 4/20/2018 the release of K.O.D. I was just chillin in my room and saw in spotify that J. Cole released a new album, and I listened to it. After like an hour, I was shocked cause it opened my eyes on how big people's problems are. As a 17 year old kid back in 2018, I was just living every single day in my comfort zone. But when I heard the song Brackets, it gave me this opportunity to like look at other people as human without judgement. Craved for more lessons and I started streaming J. Cole's songs. Stumbled upon Apparently, Change, False Prophets, etc. these helped me to grow internally as a young man. I just wish that someday I could like tell Cole how his music constantly reminds how amazing life is despite its difficulty. I'm now 20 years old and I still apply the discipline and lessons that I got from Cole's music.

    He's dead right about ego. I feel like I became a real man when I let ego go. Not completely, but choosing to have an ego about true things. Not money, celebrity, or to be better than the next man. But ego about being a good person, husband, father, friend. Nothing superficial can shake me because ego doesn't control me. The ego will have you chasing things that don't really exist but give you a false hope. Once you connect to your inner self and let it go your only moved by real things and a new improved, realistic person emerges.

    I relate to Cole so much which is why he is my fave rapper. Things that he talk about in interviews or in his music hits home for me. I will forever connect to him and his music on a deep, personal level. I do music myself and people tell me all the time that my style reminds them of Cole and it’s not even me tryna be like him or sound like him because I have my own experiences that I share through my music, but it’s just the influence and the impact that he has on me.

Love without attachment is the way to peace. #BeFree 😃 #ChristLike

      Hummer Simpson When we lose everything, we’re totally left alone with ourselves and that’s a true enlightenment if you allow that journey to manifest & unfold naturally it’s an awakening. It’s very painful but if you go through it, are open to the lessons and listen to everything not just words but all that surrounds you, examine your entire being you will receive the greatest spiritual awakening and reward. Love is from within yourself - the SELF, God gives us signs we need to open our eyes. Respect & blessings to you, glad to connect with a good spirit keep up your positive mentality 👌🏽👍🏽😊

Thats why he made false prophets saying that Kanye is just continously rambling on and becoming something other than what he set out to be which was the best hip hop artist. Thats why he said he wishes Kanye would stop his antics and just get back to making good music. But that won't happen because the world has moved on and so has Kanye.
      This is what he was referring to when he said this line. The reason why I don't think its fire is because it literally makes no sense. Ego was not affect kanye's thinking. It was his insecurities.
