As a Jewish person, I absolutely adore this song. It highlights, to me, what religion should be about: the urge to believe in the inherent goodness of humanity. Be it through Jesus, another prophet or just one’s own thinking, having something to let you know that anyone, even monstrous, bigoted ones, CAN repent if they choose to. It’s never too late.

Ghostwriter is a writer who isn't being credited, and the artist who he wrote for claims, that they have written it themself. A writer is just a writer who is given credit for writing the lyric. Kanye always credits his writers, and doesn't claim that he has written the songs himself. There is nothing wrong with having writers, as long as you give credit. It seems like people have just forgotten the meanig for the GHOST in ghostwriter :DD

This song really highlights the problem that I have with so many contemporary Christian artists: they are doing exactly what you’re told *not* to do, which is preach to the choir. My Christian mom complained that it contained swear words, and I pointed out that it’s for those who AREN’T “saved”. In my opinion, I’m agnostic and care about others and don’t care about the afterlife and appeasing a God who is as best indifferent to my existence. Say what you will about Kayne West (and he has A LOT of issues), but this song didn’t do that. The failure of “Jesus Is King” is it DOES preach to the choir.

Those are looked at sins, But Jesus looked at those people as mislead, he hang out with people who did stuff of that regard. So he's saying, "Jesus believed that those people could be saved, so don't twist his message and think that they are evil." That's the point.

@lostsnowman127

RC: You're biased. I am also. Song moved me too. 6/5 seems fair really - there is another consideration I am going to offer here. That Kathy Lee needed Regis, as once she was no longer there? She fell out of the cultural spotlight. Regis, like Jesus, could continue on. And not just as a handy rhyme. Kelly stepped in, but then Regis left. You even state at 6:37 that you did not know it was still going after Regis left. -Kathy Lee- *needed* Regis .. When he left, you stopped watching/being aware. Kelly became the anchor and they swapped out the men. The missing factor? Regis. How many items, once the part of them that make them dynamic and famous fade into obscurity when the 'anchor' is gone. Yes, he performed in front of Regis and Kelly, and he didn't change the lyric. Kelly *didn't need Regis* - she proved that. Kathy Lee did. Now apply that dynamic to The Person of Faith / Jesus / The Removal of Values in the reality of making money. Which then goes into the admission of "If this takes away from my spins" If I choose to have Faith then I forgo fame/money If I walk away from Jesus, there will still be money, and material gain, but not the impact that being next to Jesus gives me. Thus yes, Kathy Lee did need Regis. The same way that the song states that he needs Jesus. It's not a moldy banana, it's a bold statement that without the anchor of Faith that you'd need someone to IMDB your name for the world to know your deeds. If they were of any note in this world. Jesus, in the context of the metaphor, gives meaning and a Co-Host to life itself. Just my take on the concept. As for the hair? You look incredibly warm and friendly in this video. Before it was Professionalism/Authority/Friendly Now you're more 'Warm' as the 'Inner Light' of a 'Good Soul' kind of vibe Now off to go listen to Jesus Walks again.

This video came at a perfect time. Because of all of the things seen in the media about Kanye, it seemed like you and a lot of other people talk really poorly about him. Granted, it is justified because of the dumb things he said, however it seemed like he was on the receiving end of a lot of hate. I'm 16 and have friends who don't know why Kanye is so famous, simply because most of his success came while we were still young. It is cool to see you review an old song from him, and shine some light on a musical genius who catches a lot hate. Love your content man, thanks a lot.

Okay. I wrote this midway through the video, and now that I'm done, I must emphasis my above comment by sixty. I was raised Catholic, and was raised in the way that Jesus didn't really teach. (Trust me.) And while Kanye does derp a few times on this track, it's one of the handful of tracks of his I can enjoy. Thank you so much.

I always thought the Kathy and Regis line was just Kanye being funny with his weird sense of humor, not that it was supposed to be a serious comparison.

Wait does Rap Critic not say “you don’t have to like my opinion” anymore? I mean I kno it doesn’t fit in this video since he liked it but he didn’t say it in his last review about Hopsin. I liked that line, that’s why I ask.

Wasn't expecting you to give it such a positive review. There is so much in "Jesus walk's" that explains the fabric of who what and how Kanye is Kanye and will always be the same Kanye. The KKK part I also just noticed a month ago, so many years later. Kanye is a producer turned artist, his words are a maze that patience only will unravel.

This was one of the first mainstream rap songs I was ever really exposed to (grew up in a hard rock only household) and it really spoke to me. I was the odd duck at my catholic school and in my conservative family, and the acknowledgment that Jesus taught respect for all people, not just the people who are easy to love, was massive for my mindset. This is definitely my "separate the art from the artist" song lately, after the last few years of hot takes from him.

Isn't the video show the second video or is it the first? Cause I remember a Jesus Walks video that had a entire story around the people he talks about all walking into a church and joining a preacher in a rendition of the song. Like a Hustler Drug dealer a stripper a hooker ect ect
