I get that Kanye is a tremendous talent, but I was married to a bipolar man and he was absolutely EXHAUSTING! I gained so much peace when he left.

[@Emmanuelllk]

Being bipolar is not good and of course not something confortable. Is common that people with so much creativity and passion end having mental issues. You can't be average and extraordinary at the same time. It would be too perfect and not natural if someone is like that. You need big ego to achieve big things because others will try to take you down. I would say im really creative and more dedicated compared to others that I know and you need to be rude if you wanna get to the best because others doesnt understand your vision.

I'd agree to your point completely, but because there was a third party involved who advertised & distributed that's over 50% cut already. Not being on streaming services also makes for way less dividends to go out. It's also their tech he's using. Stemplayer co. might've taken a bigger cut than we know. Before they dropped him he had been stopped updating the album on the site, yet still continued work on the project. With all the different prototype's Stemplayer started working on after the initial upload, they most likely took a big portion of those earnings.

This "Ye" is the greatest living artist of our time trope has become so so tiring. Such an over-enthusiastically superficial over-simplification of evaluation that brings nothing good to the table, other than mental illness and delusions of grendeur, that with time end up becoming pure insanity. C'mon guys, he is a great artist, one of the greatest in fact, but not more than that, not THE GREATEST. There is no such thing in our universe. There are a lot of geniuses out there, a lot that are a bigger than him in a lot of genres of music. As with everything in life in fact. Such is life. You see, having people working for you for up to 40 hours straight, without any sleep, for the production of an album, is not a sign of professionalism or great work ethics, it is a clear sign of megalomania. One that is achieved after years and years of being sorrounded only by ass-kissing "yes-men", who praise your genius all day long just so they can have a bone of validation thrown at them, all while you literally start thinking that, of course, you are the reincarnation of jesus, why not, what else is there?. You do not have to be a genius to know that in order to have people be productive in their work for you, they have to be well-fed and well-rested and having them pass out in the studio due to overexhaustion is just you sabotaging your own work, as if people are tired they cannot output their best effort in being productive, so the decision to be an asshole and put that kind of pressure just because you are in the position to do so, is stupidly counterproductive to what you want to achieve. And by the way, someone who really is a genius and the most intelligent person in the room, does not need to advertise the fact that one is a genius and the most intelligent person in the room. You do not evaluate your own intrlligence as if you are an island that plays by different rules of biology. Intelligent people do not need validation for their intelligence, not their genius, let alone validation from themselves every time thry open their mouth. In fact, that is a clear sign of an extreme insecurity and inferiority complex, which is a vicious cycle that adds up to itself in a feedback loop the more time passes and you end up to a point where you become a ridiculous caricature of who you really are. That is why we see celebrities like Kanye or Ye or whatever other persona he decided to create that day, thinking that every time they open their mouth, out come pearls of wisdom and they think they are the wisest not only in their field of knowledge and competence but in any field of life such as politics for example, and we all know how well that went for Kanye. This is an issue which has become an indication of a troubling pathology of our society in general, the reverence and adoration of celebrities, as if they are better human beings than the rest of us, whose shit does not stink, and don't get me wrong, I do not give a shit about Kanye, I don't have a dog in this race, it is the same shit for Kanye or Drake or Lil Uzi Vert or ASAP whatever or Elon Musk or Sam Bankman Fried or Chenpeng Zhao or Ryan Reynolds or Dwayne Johnson or Vin Diesel or Kim Kardashian or whatever other famous individual might be, one that needs that sweet-sweet dopamine from the fanboys and fangirls, all while going around with their entourage of lawyers and bodyguards and the PR executives that must constantly feed them lines through their earpiece, in order to act humble and as just "one of us", but at the same time look as being better than all of us. But people are not stupid anyways. At the end of the day, we have always seen what lies beyond the facade of such "genius" and "high intelligence" - an empty shell, just empty "content" instead of substance, and, as a jewel on the crown, instead of personality - the most pathetic word of the 21st century - their "Brand".

Not a good sales pitch to lure in people to the Ye cult

Kanye is very talented but his behavior is consistently awful. Him being a genius is not so much applicable as it is a part of his brand identity. Considering how many have helped him get where he is, his fans have no business pretending his outrageous behavior is more beneficial just cause he has good albums.

Pretty sure Ted Bundy said the same thing about pornography addiction. Kanye is probably insane but then again a LOT of the best artists in history are.
