KANYE WEST - 7 PRINCIPLES FOR CREATIVE SUCCESS

I remember listening to Graduation when it released, sitting in a friend's bedroom after just finishing my GCSE’s. Since then, Kanye’s music has been with me, making notable memories across Dark Twisted Fantasy - 808’s and Heartbeats - and Yeezus. A lot of people say a lot of things about Kanye, but what you can’t doubt is the work. The man is a creation machine, and in this video, we take a look at how he gets it all done.
I hope you enjoy it, and let me know if any of the ideas resonate with you personally. Love love.

[@Gunnerofbfh]

ima strength & conditioning coach for athletes but I grew up playing guitar and just really involved in music my whole life. After watching your videos, I'm starting to see how almost anything can be a creative art. Even my job I have right now. Seeing how these guys think really is bringing confidence to my craft. thanks brotha.

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Yesss Nathan, thanks for getting in touch and dropping your journey and thoughts. I'm with you on creativity being present and necessary across more than just the strict arts, I hear that. Cheers again for the words,

[@fellowtraveler]

Watching this on my 5th year of producing music. It's crazy how far I've come since my first song in 2017. Thank you, Kanye, for being one of my earliest inspirations, and to this channel for making this video

[@phonzz]

Thank you for these videos. I just found your channel and you are tapping into something that really allows us to see and hear what we need to hear when we need to hear it. You are able to show the authenticity of the artist and their insights into their world/reality in a format that gives them the credit they deserve. Truly wonderful, thank you.

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Yes. That comment hits. One of the main things that I think when I make these videos is, what would the artists think if they saw the piece. Would they be happy with it? Giving that respect to the artist matters to me, so I try to put enough into these, that this respect comes through. Thanks for hitting on that, and dropping the comment to say it.

[@chrisjhon5861]

thanks for your work , it really inspire me! thanks

[@oOMaayOo]

i needed this soul speaking out as he IS and not how his fans or society and media needed him to be staged at. Disease is in everyone - stop pointing fingers on those YOU chose to believe in. He wants us to be autonomous individuals, become independent and free on what ugly social media is telling you how to feel, how to create, how to live. Meanwhile this human right there is always constantly trying to shoot the best out of his quo. As long as there's social inequality, let artists express their procedure and lives the best way they could... Power to the people. Love is to will the good of others.

Sweet that 'his grandfather' instilled in him, a sense of self confidence, self awareness, self importance. It doesn't always happen, 'that way, for individuals. When and where it does, the individual usually has a story, stories, that family relative, that teacher, that person who gave them a sense of their own confidence. Also nice, he has expressed his sense of faith, over the years, through the years, his belief in Jesus Christ🙌. Believe on Jesus🙌, Believe in The Lord.🙌🙌🙌 Someone believes in another, another Individual's ability, skills, creative process, intelligence.👏 Jesus Christ 🙌 believes in us, loves us, we believe in him, he believes in us, we love him, he loves us. 🤗🙂😁🙂🤗

[@tonesofanonymity6390]

I always discount Kanye West so I overcame my instinct to roll my eyes and scroll on, but unsurprisingly it was several minutes of cliches and blatantly obvious statements with some ego-trippin’ sprinkled in…. If anybody else got something outta then I’m truly glad to hear it , but I think this probably benefitted Kanye’s bruised ego more than anything else… IMO

[@TherealWayneChristopher]

I love you Kanye 😢

[@anima6035]

Me feeling validated in my delusional reality 😂🙏

[@creativemindsyoutube]

LOL, so real so real. It's true though, everyone has to be a bit delusional to get good at something society isn't going to pay you for, for so long. Peace peace thanks for getting in touch.

You actually missed “live life and make the right choices “

[@diskohaze6155]

Great videos but your sound is low on all your videos. :/

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Is something in the mix not working for you? Or just the whole volume level. I'm going to be dropping the music a little due to some useful feedback recently.

[@REBLWORLDWIDE]

Dilla

[@creativemindsyoutube]

I've never seen a producer of hip hop - or a lot of other music - who doesn't shout out Dilla as a key key key influence to their work. The dude carried weight.

[@V_future_V]

Sorry but i can’t read and listen in same time, might be original but not easy for all. Just sayin

Feedback heard. I'm trying to figure out what works with people in these videos, so cheers for dropping your thoughts.

@@creativemindsyoutube there is a lot of neurotypical artists/creatives (ADHD Asperger ect) I swear they will be happy to find out your Chanel. Good luck 🐉☺️

[@GET0V3RHERE]

Captions don’t match Ye’s narration at all. From a filmmaking standpoint, it’s disjointed, distracting, and hard to follow. Are we supposed to be listening to Kanye, or reading your commentary?

[@AllBetzOff]

Both

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Hey Aldan. Cheers for the feedback. I thought there was quite a lot going on at points in the video, but was trying to keep the amount of info high, so as not to waste any time for the viewer. I appreciate the feedback though, and will take it into account with developing the style going forward. Peace ✌️
