Why does Kanye West think so highly of himself? Do you think he belongs in the Bible? He seems to think so.?
I've been hearing all this stuff about how Kanye West thinks he is going to "revolutionize" music, and how he said “I changed the sound of music more than one time… For all those reasons, I’d be a part of the Bible. I’m definitely in the history books already.”
Why does he think that?
What has he really done for music? How is his sound different (to the untrained ear, not the seasoned hip hop fan) than all the other rap stars out there? What has he ever done to earn himself a place in the Bible? Is there something I am missing? Because really, when I listen to "Gold Digger" I just don't understand what the big deal is.
To Reichman- that's funny that you've never heard of him lol
to davega7 - interesting thoughts, I didn't consider the way he was raised.
to Kabbob- I hope you're right, about no one remembering him when he's 40!
to corsicanruler- interesting, to make comparisons between Kanye and Michael Jackson and Tom Cruise...I think the difference is that the latter two may not be respected, but they are still in the public eye, and I hope that Kanye will fade out....soon!
to Tariq777- I don't care how he changed "the rap game." Honestly. He says that he changed MUSIC AS A WHOLE. He thinks be belongs IN THE BIBLE. I don't see any reason why ANY musician, rap or rock or anything else, belongs in the Bible. You are proving my point exactly-- he changed RAP, but that is not enough to command the respect that he demands! Oh and PS I like rock, but I have no respect or admiration for Marilyn Manson at all-- and MM didn't say he belonged in the Bible, that's just Kanye's big head.

someone already asked this question like a week ago and i answered it then. since i don't feel like typing all the reason i hate him again i'll just tell you that he is crazy n*gg* and i hate him.
i feel like saying more now so here goes. he is a mediocre producer and as a rapper he sucks because he always says each rhyme the same way (if you listen to just two songs you'll know what i'm talking about). i want to personally beat the air out of his head. he hasn't changed anything about the rap game and i don't wanna hear him say that sh*t again. i hate, loathe, and detest kanye west!

Kanye West is a jerk who should have been chastized for his comments against President Bush at the Hurricane Katrina benefit. Mike Myers was appualed as should everyone else be. His history will fade much like that of the Micheal Jackson legacy and now the Tom Cruise legacy that has been shunted because he can't keep his stupid mouth shut. Cruise never even graduated high school. None of these people should be allowed to read the Bible.
Source(s): phatspasm is an idiot. the people who mostly change the Bible are the Mormons who keep writing in chapters. Don't talk about another peoples religion without knowing the truth, IDIOT. - 2 decades ago
Obviously you guys don't know what you're talking about. You people either do not listen to hip hop altogether, or you listen to rock or country or something like that. I can easily ask the same question about Marilyn Manson, but because there are actually people out there that listen to his "music," he must be saying the right things. Kanye is NOT for the closed minded, and if you're not into that kind of music to begin with, then you'd be better off keeping your damn mouths shut.

Since when is Kanye West a legend? He has no talent. And Manson does not think of himself as a legend or anything along those lines. He has stated many times that he is a performer.

I didn't think it was possible but I think his parents let him get a little too full of himself. He has a just a tad bit too much self-confidence. Normally it would be a good thing but in his case it seems too much. He's a dork but he kinda had a good point about G. Dubya and New Orleans. He just shouldn't have said it the way he did or where he did it!

I hate Kanye West, and I hate his music. He is nowhere as good as he says he is. He doesn't sound much different from all the other popular hip-hop artists out there today.

Many people live in their own heads. Perhaps to himself, he feels that he has made a difference, while another person might not know who he is.
Don't worry yourself over these insignificant questions. When he's 40 years old and nobody remembers his name, he'll realize a truth.

Kanye West is a legend but he is a bit over confident and cocky. His success has lead him to believe he is "special"

I don't know, but I do know if he pays the catholic church enough money they can and will write him into the bible, They have been altering it for thousands of years, why stop now?

I can not stand him or his music. It is absolutley ridiculous that he thinks so highly of himself. What history has he made? None that I know.
