      You love yourself anyway you can in this moment. Be patient and perhaps you can find someone to love you back.
      Then if you are lucky enough to have your own family do not commit the error in which you now pay the price. Be good to those new ones in your life whether children or partner. Hold gratitude for what you have even if it seems little. Nature always fills a void.

    Kanye not hearing back from Colombia is equivalent to Jordan not making his high school bball team. Both of them failed and came back harder to be some legends.

    People should watch this as of 2018 to try to understand why his mentality seems slightly removed from those of his culture. His upbringing is extremely atypical to that of the average young black child born in Chicago. Your childhood experiences mold uour view of society in the future. It seems he expects more from his culture and believes we are capable of achieving more.
    In my personal opinion I truly believe Kanye considers himself a God but I truly believe he feels we should all consider ourselves the same. I re-watch a lot of his interviews and he is one of the few artists that stick to what they believe despite how unpopular it may be which I think deserves some respect.
    I think what shocks people, myself included is despite being so articulate in his art , when speaking candidly his thoughts seem haphazardly formed. His emotion comes out and overshadows the points he is trying to make. After I listen to him and remove judgement I understand and often agree with a lot of what he has to say.

He Changed the Game around him. back in the day nobody would be caught wearing prep clothes or a Back Pack nevermind Skinny Jeans it was Baggy/Gangsta style that was it. He was Basically 1st person to change the face/Look of Hip-Hop. thats no small thing changing the Look of whole Culture.

  • @ayandadube8131

    I am huge fan of Kanye West, I'm from Zimbabwe in Southern Africa and would like to explain this. "Kanye" is a Ndebele/Zulu adverb. Ndebele and Zulu are languages. These languages are part of the broader umbrella of languages known as "Bantu languages" which are native to Africa. "Ka-nye" basically means something done "once" or "only one time", and i think is the more befitting definition of his name, not "the only one" as the given meaning in this documentary. "The only one" is actually the definition of the word "Mu-nye", not "Ka-nye". Foreign interpretations of such words tend to miss the mark as these guys don't understand the ins and outs of our languages as we do, and as said in this interview, the name was simply taken from a book of African names. I bet you 100% the author is/was not African.
    Stay woke my brothers.
