Kanye West: rapper, singer, songwriter, producer. Kanye West: husband, father, son, Jay Zs BFF. Kanye West: bully, egomaniac, aggressive performer. Kanye West: creative, talented, genius, god. Do you follow Yeezus? Are you a fan of undying loyalty? Do you know every word to his every song? Do you rap like Kanye when youre showering? Do you know where every freckle is on his wifes body (because were pretty sure the whole world does?) Hecklers from the background: Hes an arsehole! You sigh. Its so hard being a KW fan. Sometimes you get so tired of defending him that you have to go and listen to all of his albums in a row to remind yourself of what a G he is. No matter how much love you feel towards Kanye West, theres always going to be someone who will point out that his personality is full of flaws. From the wheelchair incident (well get to that reputation-tarnisher in a moment) to the infamous humiliation of Taylor Swift, youre constantly trying to tell the haters that really, Kanye isnt such a bad guy. Yes yes, you know he comes across as a cray self-absorbed rapping maniac, but deep down hes got real life human feelings in that peanut shaped head of his. Oh Kayne. The things we do for love.
I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
