apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

It's amazing that there is a stage large enough to hold both his ego and his hype. The only thing Kanye inspires in me is the urge to poke my ears out with chopsticks.

well said hejiranyc :)

While I agree with the EGO part, he is as good as the hype. Truly. And I'm someone who was vehemently against him for many years. Until I actually listened.

Whatever, the ego is just part of his shtick. If you listen to his lyrics, he makes as much fun of himself and his ego, as anyone else does. I mean, obviously he has a massive ego, like any other superstar or wannabe-superstar, but the super exaggerated ego is the persona. Anyway, I like his beats and his design sense.

I guess this ego thing can apply to any celebrity. Why would a normal human being want to be famous if not because of sheer egocentricity???

Felt the same way until I saw the Monday night show in L.A. The amount of thought that went into every single aspect of the show was beyond impressive. From the moonscape set to the 2001 Space Odyssey on acid multimedia, Glow in The Dark was second to none. Kanye raises the bar on what a live concert should be, giving his audience their money worth and then some.

He is one of the few celebs with a massive ego who can actually back it up.

I was fortunate enough to Glow in The Dark Tour when it hit Austin. I'm getting chills just thinking about it. He puts on an amazing show. Fan or not, you must respect a man with that much drive and passion.
