KANYE, THE -ISM'S, AND THE CONTINUOUS "LIFE MOVIE" THAT NEVER ENDS

Watching this video by 'Clique TV' helped me to understand Kanye West a lot better; from his explanations about "race being a dated concept" and is just a mere "thing" that people choose to hold onto, too buying a high-priced product without having the proper knowledge about it being equal to "getting a prostitute pregnant" -- as he explains both can be expensive mistakes. 

I always knew his mind was different and the functioning of his brain is so quick -- it literally left me fascinated with a longing to comprehend even more about him. As singer Madonna recently stated, "(Kanye) He's a beautiful mess."

Over time the intrigue of Kanye, has definitely wore me out lol; like playing cat and mouse around and around, until your eyes get crossed and a headache ensues, and you must retreat for awhile just to get your bearings. 

Eventually, you begin to think that this guy is nuts and all the hidden agendas and coded wording is a bunch of baloney, but then he goes and does an interview like this -- once again drawing you back into what you knew was there all along. Kind of like the 'College Dropout'; you know that he's capable of such a magnum opus and you long to forever bask in that creativity that brought you such joy, and as soon as he veers left you're like "What the hell happened?!"

Because you weren't ready for the evolution, or hadn't fully grasped the entire concept of artistry...or the artistry that is the make-up of Kanye West, it's easy to fall into a period of confusion and even frustration as you battle to continue trying to believe in the artist that you were "ride or die" for from the very beginning. 

Moreover, after watching this video, I not only learned to no longer doubt Kanye's artistry but am fully inclined to apply to the Institute of Kanye, should there ever be such an establishment one day. 

On a side note: Kanye comparing the first computer ever made to the current fashion industry, was one of the dopest moments on the video.
