Is it that or is it just a narcissistic display of ego?

I feel like Kanye is a creative genius, and he also knows how to get publicity, but I can’t tell if he is using his talents for good or not. I at least believe he sincerely thinks he is using them for good, and in that I hope he succeeds, yet I worry for him if he does.


Kanye West is mentally ill. He means well, but his words and actions won't necessarily align with what regular sane people think of as good.


When the whole worlds crazy, sane people seem crazy.

It is exactly that his actions don’t align with the majority that makes him so appealing. As he has said in his songs, “he ain’t no slave to culture”


I think he is mostly harmless.
