[@kevindaugard3244]

[@SumShar11]

It's deep af if you think about it though.

[@alejandrooonec6849]

[@KilllerWhale]

The media said he's way out of control I just feel like I'm the only one not pretendin' I'm not out of control, I'm just not in they control Kanye West - Saint Pablo

[@narcisoanasui246]

“I know I’m the most influential, that time cover was just confirmation” -Kanye West (Saint Pablo)

[@advilpm359]

That song will define history in the near near future

[@AlanGarcia-nq5kb]

Kanye West is one of the most important artists of the century, period. He doesn't deserve the hate he gets.

[@mandybaende4199]

Alan Garcia Amen! He paved the way for many artist today

[@updod88]

Top5 ay bare minimum.

[@Karl671]

I know

[@coltonzang2057]

he really is a smart guy but he is sadly misunderstood by the people his trying to please and make happy.

[@owaiskhan7063]

@DeathWish that's not really a problem buddy, it's an illness, could happen to you, me, anyone..

[@Karl671]

Yup

[@quillber]

When Kanye is not telling everyone how amazing he is, he can be pretty amazing

[@loganwendt778]

Nicely put

[@kinimediagroup]

quillber Couldn't have been said better.

[@jtrosen2001]

THE SEER

[@boomidctv6017]

It's because he knows how hard he truly pushes for what he speaks but they don't take him seriously downplay him or censor him

[@jda1627]

makes you think that maybe when he's talking about himself in a high manner, its just an honest evaluation, like the facts of the matter?

[@dylangallegos2538]

this man is the fucking legend. Someone give him a nobel prize!

[@badpictureman9638]

Cool interview. Kanye rocks.

[@Nayhan123]

You got likes thought I’d tell you

[@sethlandis93]

"I'm on TV talkin' like it's just you and me"

[@Jo-lp1px]

This is beautiful, straight from his heart.

[@aminb.7381]

True announcement of a real man! All the best to you and your family!

[@iwantwinnersproduxtions]

I love Kanye! And nothing will ever change that

[@gigglesmansonn]

Why doesn’t the media wanna focus on this side?

[@mandybaende4199]

LemonCoconut because the media is evil. Duh.

[@PorcelainSubmarine]

because he is subliminally speaking against the zionists.

[@ImaginarySam]

LemonCoconut It doesn’t go with “their” narrative. They want division. Kanye preaches unity.

[@vpaulocesar3030]

Because they wanna keep the people ignorant

[@user-pw2hb3lt5d]

CNN : are you talking to me?

[@Heltiic]

"You cant say "Hey, I gave you these things, you owe me this thing back you have to give and know your blessings will be 10 folded." PERIOD." REALSHIT RIGHT THERE

[@timzagarella8230]

Kanye in all seriousness is a very smart, influential man. And his music is fucking awesome. ;)

[@wolfboythecreator1614]

One of greatest minds of our time

[@allencampbell1058]

For it is always best to not be in competition, which results you of focusing about someone's else progress rather than your own

[@JorgeCastro-ui3pi]

how can people say kanye is not humble

[@jacoblucas3038]

Jorge Castro with their mouth

[@romanspataro1688]

people don't know what humble means

[@C4millee99]

inspiring man

[@Nayhan123]

You got likes thought I’d tell you

[@KTKZon58]

"None of us will be remembered"

[@cryosteam3944]

I will die loving this man

[@alleycat2697]

When you start putting your mind in the space of I need to best this person, you lose your own sanity. You being to think like that person and in some sense become that person. All you do is revolve your thoughts behind their feelings. Thinking for yourself is so dangerous because your own thoughts might actually work.

[@edwarddeanda12]

Kanye inspires but some make a joke out of his projects and assume too much and become ignorant

[@rasheawhite9356]

You teaching real good, love one! Love and honor. Good to see you, Kanye!🤗💕

[@cactusjack2264]

Wow 599 likes and ONLY 19 dislikes on a Kanye video!?!?

[@diegomaculent202]

GucciGawd 2 yrs later 5k likes 67 dislikes wow

[@Porcelynnn]

Wow. I actually like what he said here! It's different from his other interviews.

[@chiefbeef3587]

You must have missed this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3XHgJxjnKeMnMk

[@brokenglassmusic]

I love KANYE ❤🐐

[@matthewmann8969]

Only competition to Kanye deep down is Kanye himself

[@itsmemia4691]

How can Kanye be crazy if he is so wise?

[@B4raCk0s4Ma]

Itsme you can be both lol

[@sleepymiami305]

"Name one genius that ain't crazy" Kanye West - Feedback

[@Moana_moo]

Itsme Being mentally ill doesn’t mean you’re stupid. Just like being physically ill(like chronic diseases) doesn’t mean you ain’t pretty

[@casadegaitan]

Exactly!

[@twasni0121]

I have to say the media had me thinking all kinds of crazy about this man; I owe Kanye an apology. Well thought out responses to questions and he articulates his answers A-1. Very impressive man.

[@-veaux-4700]

just got my yeezy 350 v2 zebras in the mail today. love how he handled this interview

[@Vifoda1]

kanye was reading a lot of yuval harari back in the days..good for him

[@VaiComDeus89]

while many hate on this man, I appreciate this man for being a non programmed thinker. He doesn't follow society's norms, he thinks in his way. That is the way I have always thought. Always question everything. He happens to be in a position where he can effect change because of his platform, which is great. It takes balls to say what he says sometimes, but if you really think about it he makes sense, just not to the conventional thinker.

[@traise420]

This video changed my opinion on this man personality

[@kurtainkiller3279]

Kanye can answer questions from the future:D! Listen to the part in Kill Jay Z where Jay talks about giving Ye 20mil$ and Kanye giving him 20mins on stage and then skip to 1:16 in this video

[@aayammusic4584]

Media just destroy his image.. He is very genius man

[@ItsMeTheMoon]

i get goosebumbs anytime i hear Kanye talk

[@hamilton4449]

2020 lets go

[@Samireview97]

Respect you brother

[@sandrahinds9368]

Amen my brother

[@sandrahinds9368]

That's wisdom

[@AlexanderEmmanual]

Full interview going to uploaded?

[@Nayhan123]

You got likes thought I’d tell you

[@ashtheripper1539]

He's a good person with sacred views...this is what earns you respect

[@454lin]

Real talk ... never compete

[@straightouttaarea5119]

I honestly think this dude is a genius.

[@badjoj015]

GEMS... what this great man is saying are GEMS

[@MrBrightside390]

This seems like a time in kanyes life where he was medicated just the right amount. His ideas are still really existential and out of the box but he's actually relaxed and coherent enough to explain it properly. He's stoned in this interview on what looks like a combination of prescribed opioids/anti-anxity medication and weed. He's said himself that his opioid addiction getting out of hand was the reason he went to the mental hospital. This is a really good snapshot of what kanye looked like on the proper doses of his medicine before his addiction got out of hand.

[@alucardvekkia3966]

Goddamn, I really do miss the Old Kanye

[@lovleen]

kanye is iconic and not what the media makes him out to be

[@lisjanacelaj]

PLEASE MEDIA FOCUS ON HIS BRAIN MORE, its beautiful!!

[@mrmovieguy1000]

Such an absolute OG

[@tyniabond6450]

MOST PROFOUND THING I HEARD " dinosaurs ARE ONLY remembered for their bones so.. what are we going to be once humanity is lost" like if i could feel anything it would be that. this world literally makes you numb chasing a fantasy

[@michellewells4317]

Kanye when you're on your on. God bless you 🙏 ❤️ 🙌

[@DameXII]

Kanye is amazing

[@gabeholm857]

He got my vote

[@Lavaboy1738]

who else is here after Kanye announced his candidacy?

[@44gg37]

This comment section is gold.

[@TheDJPulce8693]

I LOVE THIS.

[@edwardzamora691]

Wow I’ve recently come to realize this exact same thing and stumbled upon this video said by one of my muses CRAZY hahaha

[@grinkobaba9226]

I can understand why people would call him crazy, but how can you say that what he's saying in this video makes no sense?

[@doublev1513]

bro where's the whole interview?

[@daniYVr000]

holy shit, this made me in love with Kanye west

[@rubydapearl]

i love when he talks with a super white cadence in huge interviews lmao

[@dxnstanton7916]

Kanyes iq has got to be serious Dudes smart

[@kevk4908]

Molly shit your comment is gold

[@karimd88]

Molly well said man! But last time I checked he isn’t the best freestyler, could be wrong though and no hate btw!

[@alexhilderbrand7064]

And this is why Ye is the best

[@andemagoso8081]

After reading what people have said here I've realized that most of you don't know the man, like at all, you only judge him based on what the media tells you.. Go listen to these three albums: College Dropout, Late Registration and Graduation.. Kanye is and has always been creative, real, soulful and talented. You know it's really sad that the guy who started this thing of talking about God, in hip hop is now being referred to as idiot. I mean yeah he has said and done some dumb things but he's not an idiot.

[@loveharrydaily]

It just always amuses me that his talking voice is completely different that his rapping voice.

[@CassiusTravels]

You never know what kind of Kanye you're going to get

[@Missmmmmmmmmmm]

“7 pools thank you kanye very cool”

[@elijahfilmsofficial]

I will be on time one day.

[@generationxyz7325]

[@karlosjones6966]

1:40... I Be Saying That... It May Not Come Back From Whom You Gave To...

[@mrmovieguy1000]

Thought it was gonna be because he is THE *GREATEST* so there is NO COMPETITION But alas I was wrong

[@TheGyanenda]

If you're Kanye West fan, you're not fan of me, however you're fan of yourself! I'm just an expression - Kanye West

[@lovejoy9173]

Powerful!👏👏👏

[@BMJWBS]

Mad respect to the man!

[@ryanjensen4692]

Kanye is the GOAT

[@iamURHO]

God bless Kanye how He would wanna bless Him.

[@doinglife1070]

Give up and Let God? I think he meant Let Go and Let God. Love you Kanye. From Nairobi, Kenya

[@carguy3583]

Now I see why Kim choose Kanye

[@UGKisback]

i wonder if he's still vocalizing in camera edits. TIME can you please make a "raw" version?

[@stintza]

LOVE YE

[@decorianhill7228]

The real KanYe West .... very intelligent. Great vocabulary. There is nothing wrong with this man. Society always try to make it seem like people got a problem.. I say fire back at society with success

[@E400-o9o]

[@goddessawakening3982]

Love you Kanye

[@SoulSearch11110]

I would like to know what he's doing besides music to contribute to the betterment.

[@abdelhassan5225]

He disagrees with reality, the reality is everybody is competing with everybody and everybody wants something in return.

[@rohhhann]

he rebels against reality because I think he believes there's more to this reality

[@vand6]

I love ye...do u love him too? 😉

[@manns101101]

real talk

[@malmcowy]

[@madmax.maxwell]

Still Love Kanye

[@khaledmohamed_]

[@jda1627]
