I have a confession to make, I LOVE Kanye West.
I don’t know what it is about him, he just seems like a genuine guy. I know he picks Kim’s clothes for her, which is patronizing and overbearing. He’s also certainly a bit too vocal on who should win what award. Also what a name he’s inflicted on that poor child of his...
But maybe he was trying to be helpful with Kim’s clothes! And I think it’s KIND of sweet that he cares so much about who wins an MTV award. He’s like a bold child!
He’s certainly made some powerful enemies; he’s crossed Taylor Swift, called George Bush a racist and we’re constantly hearing that he’s cheated on Kim K. I know Kanye behaves like a spoiled brat, and a lot of his lyrics are laughably misogynistic. But I just can’t help myself; the man cracks me up. He’s a laugh a minute; comparing himself to Steve Jobs or Michael Jordan or Walt Disney. He’s one of the most quotable self-aggrandizers on the planet!
I have his new album, Yeezus, permanently on repeat since I got it. I’m not a big rap person but Kanye’s albums always sound good to me! Some of the lyrics on Yeezus are genius:

I am a God
Hurry up with my damn massage
In a French ass restaurant
Hurry up with my damn croissants
Generation-defining stuff!
Ok, he’s a narcissist, agreed. But he’s an infinitely entertaining narcissist.
Check out his twitter where Yeezy regales us with the fascinating minutia of his life:
I hate when I'm on a flight and I wake up with a water bottle next to me like oh great now I gotta be responsible for this water bottle
The man’s got trouble taking on the burden of a water bottle, and yet thinks he's a God. What's not to love!?

So do you love or loath Mr. West?
