Fur pillows are actually hard to sleep on.
I just think that when my confidence meets other people's insecurity, that equals Kanye's arrogant.
Fur pillows are hard to actually sleep on.
I can sleep. I love sleep; it's my favorite.
When I think of competition it's like I try to create against the past. I think about Michelangelo and Picasso, you know, the pyramids.
I'm like a vessel, and God has chosen me to be the voice and the connector.
I am the number one human being in music. That means any person that's living or breathing is number two.
I wouldn't even say that I'm a rapper. I'd say I'm more of a messenger.
I am Warhol. I am the No. 1 most impactful artist of our generation. I am Shakespeare in the flesh.
You don't have to be scared of me, because I am loyal. Why are people so scared of creative ideas and so scared of truth? All I want to do is do good.
Man, I'm the No. 1 living and breathing rock star. I am Axl Rose; I am Jim Morrison; I am Jimi Hendrix.
My message isn't perfectly defined. I have, as a human being, fallen to peer pressure.
I really appreciate the moments that I was able to win rap album of the year or whatever.
I liberate minds with my music. That's more important than liberating a few people from apartheid or whatever.
