Kanye West on Why He Doesn't Care About His Legacy | TIME

Imagine living a life where you don't appreciate Kanye West
richardhalo yikes
Young Sneezy I couldnt imagine
Living it. I feel better
Young Sneezy
No it was spelled correctly last time I checked
richardhalo I feel you man, I used too be like you, but it will pass, if you give him a chance and really listen to him, to what he say when he's not angry, you'll understand.
"What makes magic, magic? The fact that no one believes it's possible"
I don't believe my cousin will ever build rockets, that don't make it fucking magic. lmao
Did he say what makes anything magic? no, he said what makes magic, magic.
ry.n sonny ...what...?
Jean-Luc DeCoster who TF is this Kayne west ? just because everyone talks about this guy doesn't mean I care or anyone else should. idc about you not caring :D
100% of the people who have commented on this comment so far blindly hate Kanye so much they are willing to dumb themselves down just to completely bypass the philosophy behind the quote and call it stupid. So brain dead honestly.
*video of kanye having a breakdown*: 10M views
*video of kanye having an intelligent discussion*: 800k views
its clear why so many have such a warped image of who he is....
Agreed he always gets hate for no reason
because a breakdown is inherently more entertaining than a discussion to most people😪😪
This comment is a good example of that, wdym breakdown?? 🤦🏻♂️
It's only a matter of comparison. 800k is not even, realistically, a small number.
@@ejguitar5452 PFTT
Yeah "only" 21 Grammys, 3 albums on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" MBDTF, late registration, college dropout, also on Rolling Stone's the 40 most groundbreaking albums of all time - 808s & Heartbreak, and 6 multi platinum critically acclaimed albums. Kanye haters can't stand the fact that he's a legend.
Saqib Munir Grammys doesn't make him the greatest.
Shashwat Mann He didn't say it made him the greatest.
this is what I conclude from the above comment.
Saqib Munir this a hella late reply but one thing i dont think you understand is that statistics and awards are not what makes somebody great, kanye is great because he is exactly who he is, hes unfiltered and will not bend to the will of people in the music/fashion industry. Speaking your mind, being authentic, and doing the same in your pursuit is achieving greatness. He just happens to make incredible music too
Yeah then he lost his marbles (around when TLOP dropped)
Enjoy this guy while he's still here. There will never be another Kanye West ever again.
I hope there won't be another God like him.
I hope you're right.
***** "GODNYE" is the greatless.
***** hmm
***** What are you doing with your life again?
"Whats the main thing that makes magic, magic? The fact that no one believes its possible."
"They just let me dream. They supported me. They pushed me. They didnt set me up to be inside of a box."
"We were born into a broken world and we're like, the clean up crew."
"Remember this moment. Because it wont always be like this."
"Just help. Just do everything you got, give everything you got."
"Our progress needs to less about what i like to see, or how we're going to control each other, but more about how we're gonna give to each other."
Molina Danh Watch short video of Kanye talking, gain 6 life quotes.
Molina he's a genius
bump
I love Kanye like Kanye loves Kanye
haha 🤔 not possible
That's awesome
Jayden Lawson it’s a joke moron
Martin Da GOAT y u hatin on a comment from 2 yrs ago
Riko Man 2 years later and its still not funny
People hate this man for no reason
Charles Hobbs yes!
They hate him cause they ain't him.
the ignorance
Michael Bing OK you create a legenderay impact in the music world , with 21 Grammy awards,sell millions of albums, make your own fashion line,own your personal record label but wait there's more ☺
Michael Bing haters be like
Damn outside of the headlines this dude is actually intellectual
TheHeroineFather he’s a genius
yup
The media only portrays him in the negative light
@Khaled Rapp maybe he is not an intellectual in a formal way, but he is for sure one of the most creative and forward thinking people alive.
Khaled Rapp if you can’t see the vision, you should take a walk
He deserves it. I may not agree with everything he says or like all his music but he's far braver than most rappers, or even celebrities for that matter. He's an uncompromising artist.
Jay Fresh you got likes thought I'd tell you
He called out homophobia in Hip Hop culture ten years again on MTV..I agree !
@@melsmithmel 16 years ago. 2005
people will never understand him but he is extremely articulate and intelligent! sometimes he'll say shit that might come out the wrong way but if you take time and think about what he has to say and how he says it you'll see that he makes a lot of sense.
yess bc he is trying to wake people up that we live in a fucked up society
people always take quotes out of context
he's been in legal issues and I think his EGO and talent has no right for president plus i would leave the USA if he really ran and won and I would tell the entire USA to come with me. (except fans of dum old Kayne)
Better him president then trump. his heart is better than trumps
Justin Deloatch Heart? You don't need a heart to run a country. Thats exactly what Obama has too much of. You need brains and power to lead a country, and that's what trump has.
i love you so much kanye you are my biggest inspiration
My deep learning teacher is Kanye biggest fan good to know that Siraj
It's the A.I guy!
Yeah rap is the new rock n roll😂😂😂
❤️
whats the song in the beginning.
I'm so happy to be living in the era when this man is making his art.
This guy and Radiohead. We are very very lucky.
@@adamantiumgonzalez8389 great mix actually and both somewhat similar in how consistently great and evolving their music is
100%❤️
🌼
Kanye West is a legend.
Yea why not
God_Laughs _At_Atheists even more so
@God_Laughs _At_Atheists religion doesn't really make you greater or worse but that new album was whack, the rest of his shit dope tho.
Always will be
Something has to be said for a man who starts by pointing to the sky and says I will be there one day. And within the same decade has his hand in multiple creative industries with critical acclaim. And popular mass recognition. This spot on the 100 most influential people was well deserved for Mr. Kanye Omari West. *Good job!*
Haha sure man
Stan Stuben also an accomplished artist with all his albums reaching #1, 21 grammies and platinum sales for every masterpiece of an album he puts out. And why did you use the N word unnecessarily?
Shreyas Iyer because kanye haters are inherently racist
Quagmire97 figured that out when all i see on FB on a Kanye link is a 30-40 year old or middle aged *insert skin colour here* person commenting shit when they haven't heard his stuff. But not all of those type of people are haters.
Stan Stuben kanye created 20k jobs for chicago
there. thats one thing hes done more for humanity than your worthless self will ever do.
We need more Kanye in this fake society
Connie Lee but he is fake.
Abercrombieindya stfu kid
Connie Lee please
J cole is more real.
Abid Bin Laden j Cole the fakest rapper
yooo lmaooooo this nigga has like 43 different personalities lmaoo. Hes still a legend tho
KingFloydz man he's gemini, you got it (;
KingFloydz most free humans arent one dimensional and dont possess just one mood or personality.
Emilie Carpuat I was going to say the same thing!
That gemini shit 😂😂
Gemini's do that man
kanye is a millennial... a renaissance man...we’re literally watching him make history. love you Ye
Gen x
That TIME cover was just confirmation
Chop up the beats this generation's
DNice5865 closest thing to Einstein
Chop up the beats so don't worry about me I'm fine
This generation's closest thing to Einstein, so don't worry bout me I'm fine
2006 Person of the year boy represent
Reasons Why You Should Like Kanye West
1)He is a happy person
2)He is an honest person
3)He speaks the truth
4)When he is on stage you can tell that he's trying his best
5)He doesn't let hate get to him
Your Friendly Neighbourhood Cocaine Addict 6. He is the greatest hip hop artist of all time
Jack Murphy greatest and most influential
Happy ? I don't think so.
Orube Kdo ahhh, projection... i wish you happiness.
6)he is kanye
I don't understand why people accuse Kanye of "talking white."
When you take a moment to think about what that phrase means, you'll realize how stupid it is.
If anything, speech patterns and vernacular vary among CLASS NOT RACE. Kanye grew up upper-middle class so don't expect to talk like he grew up in Bed Stuy.
TheZchristina97 but jist cuz u talk a certain way dont mean u stupid haha
TheZchristina97 true
TheZchristina97 I never liked how people would say that. Like oh you talk black, you talk white. Didn't know a color sounds a certain way
1000% agree but he didnt grow up upper middle class
I think there point is if you listen to how he spoke while he was on his come up in interviews, his speaking style has changed & this is coming from a true Yae fan since 03’ thru the wire days !
It's funny how words like these don't go viral. People just want to see a wild Kanye
“They don’t want Kanye to be Kanye”
They ain’t trying to see a calmye
Pray for him; I think he’s lived the struggle we all go through in such a public way that’s it’s exposed him to wolves who used him.
Imagine hip-hop without Kanye West.
I can’t
That would be 🗑️🚮
No
pls don't
THat's like saying imagine hip-hop without Drake, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Juice WRLd, etc. Ye is one of the most influential artists of all time.
"We were born into a broken world, and we're like the clean up crew"
When I lose confidence in myself or have days of low self esteem....I watch kanye interviews to make me feel better
Watching this now hits different
He's still got that mindset of helping people.
I enjoy his interviews.
Then listen to Ultralight Beam.
Künstlerin-DAB1995 try his music
remember this moment! because it won't always be like this!
d11ng you got likes thought I'd tell you
Most people will learn from Kanye when he dies... I love and I'm learning Kanye while he alive. I love Kanye west existence. He the biggest threat to the evil people (CEOs of earth) . Kanye is the one pac was talking about when he said "I will spark the brain that will change the world"
True
What song was that
+Curbelo Emilio it's a interview
Is Kanye not the CEO of his clothing brand?
Creative genius that is exactly why kanye is my inspiration in fashion
maxyomama you got likes thought I'd tell you
He should be proud of his legacy! Even if his image isn't the best.
Everyone hates on him. This man came from nothing and had many people doubt him. Although he is a genius... he humbled himself by comparing himself to school teachers
Sean Scholes his mom was an english professor, it’s like an ode too
I love this interview. It’s so soothing. It’s one of the rare clips where he is super calm. Only one playing in the background just competes the vibe 🧡
So happy that Kanye is getting some positive recognition in the public eye for once. Kanye is a HUGE inspiration of mine in terms of how I want to dress, how I want to live, and how I set up my dreams. Kanye is such a gift to me because his music gives me energy to move through the world, his personality and relentless confidence gives me an attitude to aspire to, and his unique craft gives me momentum to really go for my goals. So glad that I exist in the time of Kanye West.
Me too! well put!
People that say "you talk white " or "you talk black" have superpowers they can listen colors
He's passionate about what he does. This is his life and he loves what he does. As a musician myself, I can relate. I'm passionate about what I do. I love to create sounds that I never heard before.
People really should praise Kanye while he's still here. The greatest artist of all time.
dumb, EMINEM IS HIS GOD
Horia lol Eminem sucks ass
Em can rap but he cant make good music pun intended
Horia Kanye's long surpassed Eminem at this point, and i like them both
@@twink385 Em hasn't released a great album since 2002 lmfao meanwhile Kanye just dropped KSG this year
This is wild how relevant it is today.
Truly an inspirational artist. He will always be remembered for the impact his art has had on this world. I am proud of time for being brave enough to be truthful about who deserves this title. Kanye West - The Misunderstood Genius
Ken Kirtland well said
Title of the vid hits different now
YE24
I have never met anyone that didn't either hate or love Kanye. What that means to me is that no one can ignore him, and that he represents something much deeper than a rapper or fashion designer. His presence on a persons mind elicits the deepest response no matter who you are. I personally love him. What must it say about a person if they hate him?
He is so damn insightful! It sucks when ppl give him shit because he can't always articulate what he's trying to say
That is very apparent now.
Most people who hate on him don't truly understand him, this man has platinum albums, an extremely successful label, and an extremely successful fashion company, any other man under managing all those lives would crack, so who cares if he's got a hella big ego, hell, he earned that ego through hard work.
The main thing that makes maigic magic is the fact that no one believes it’s possible - Kanye West
you need to be on another level to really understand what kanye is talking about.
You have to be on another planet to be on his level. No Thank You you weirdo's.
you need to be on crack
Same with Rick and Morty
@@kingy7560 or more accurately, psychedelics
Yep
All of the moves he's making is setting him up to be remembered after his time
Living in the same time period as Kayne is something special.
"we were born into a broken world and we're, like, the clean-up crew" 💯
KTT fam
We in it!
Joejoe d whew parrot crine
/r/kanye is better
Cheese Pizza :what:
Can you read?
look at kanye man so inspirational
This is what I mean when I try to explain to people that *mental illness is a brain that's different, not a brain that's broken.* It has to be supported, and when it isn't, shit breaks because that brain refuses to take the B.S. of life. It's going to find a way to get this person either out of life or really living life. We don't always have to agree; but I appreciate the way Kanye thinks about life because my bipolar ass brain sees life like that too.
And now he is president of the United States ✊🏿 GOD BLESS KANYE
He's not
Kanye doesn't care about having a legacy but he will have one that lasts forever
2:39 this is awesome because Kanye's mindset is he takes negative situations not as a setback but as a fuel to strive and progress to achieve success.
What he said about taking what most people take as a negative as a positive is amazing info
from a guy who married plastic, he must have such a hard life
@@ya.thegoat8795 go play fortnite you stupid kid 😂
2:53 That is how I handle the world and its situations, for the better future. Because I know it. Because I believe it. Because I love it.
Still an amazing entertainer. Definately my favorite rapper. This man inspired me alot. About music. About not caring what people think. About creativity. How many of you got respect for Kanye West?
Kanye tend to speak some rad shit lately, its like he had a talk with someone after his last rant, he switched up 180 degrees. Talking about human nation as a whole and being cleaning crew in a broken world, i ain't no chief keef but - that's that shit i do like. If he ain't gonna change his course he might become the greatest voice of our era.
I just love him, grow up listening to him with my sister we are craze loving him so much , I don't care if people say mean things about him but to me Kanye west was one person who I relate mylife with, I hope he remains strong and prosperous
RIP Dr.Donda West we remember your support at Chicago State University.
I come back to this every now and then to keep me inspired, thank you kanye :)
I’m 41 years old...This is the ONLY person that has inspired me in my ENTIRE life‼️
“And we don’t care what people say”-Kanye West (2004)
All Hail Kanye! Kanye Omari West! He is the most courageous hip hop mainstream artist out there!
Marshall Ferguson HA.
He just looks so peaceful, happy, smiles all the time now
And this is why Kanye west is my idol, I can meet any other celebrities and be like oh wassup, but when the day comes that I meet Kanye I might pass out
Before i hated this guy by following media, one time listened him fully on a interview, it changed 100% my opinion to him, he thinks more than most of ppl does. He spoke misunderstanding things than they started making sense. When he ran for President, at that point i thought he was kidding. Saw media made a crazy image on his rally, i thought i was wrong about him, until watching a whole speech. It shows me he ran President not for winning purpose but wants his voice to be heard, he focuses alot about his community, wants the best to build a better life for black community by education, not be leaded by any political party. Did u realize that we made a music video, and started ran for President after all black lives matter movement, because he cares alot for his people. I dont idolize any celeb but this guy.
I am a 33 year old woman who doesn't have much interest in rap music/world but Kanye has recently become my go to when I need motivation/inspiration to keep going and keep pushing for a better version of me.
Killer
Go for it
In a positive way
That part about his parents supporting him super important. When I was 12-13, I wanted to build a computer to make animations or play modded minecraft on and my parents just laughed it off. Now that I finally built one at age 20 it’s beyond not the same. It hurts to think about what might’ve been, even if it was small. I just want to create art
Kanye is THAT guy!
True words!
Something about the beginning felt so erie, appreciate this man while he still here, there will never be another Kanye West
At first. I thought he was insane.
Now. I think he’s inspiring.
At 3:18' Kanye got that "So Help Me God" monastic symbol tatted on the right arm!!!
Oh shit
numoverper Check out The Yeezus Documentary on Facebook@849079381790497
goat!!
numoverper nice I was looking at his bracelet lol
Praise be to Yeezus
MaddRezz you got likes thought I'd tell you
Love you Kanye what people don't understand is that you are human just like the rest of us and that your able to be under pressure and experience life's heartbreaks and over all set backs . But the fact that your still able to do what you love under the pressure of society's constant judgement and surveillance of you is amazing . You are so legendary everything you have done in your career up to this point has made your mom very proud and has amazed the world and your fans !!!
the algo blessing me with the good Kanye content
Here before he becomes the President.
Imagine if Kanye West became a video game producer.
I'd like to imagine he would have been a revolutionary developer like Notch, Newell, Kojima, etc
I appreciate how confident he is
Kanye’s been my inspiration since I was a teenager and after so many years he still is
Inspirational.
Django you got likes thought I'd tell you
Kayne is a messenger from all falls down, Jesus Walks , Diamonds Are From Sierra Leone to New Slaves to fighting for change in prison reform currently!! No one's perfect
I'm having strong depressions but Kanye's music makes it all go away. Just like he sad about the legacy. True hero.
Mr.West
Being alive during Kanye is a flex
"Remember this moment when noone came" - Kanye West
Kanye is the greatest of all time END OF DISCUSSION
I like how the whole time the video's on, Kanye's songs are playing
Funny how all these people calling Kanye crazy and an idiot will be saying he’s a legend when he dies, people need to see who he is today while he’s here, not when he’s gone
Kanye West is one of a kind. There will NEVER be anyone close to him. He's amazing.
So much awesomeness in one person
Everytime one says something truthful out loud, it also breaks friendships. But it's necessary for personal accelerated growth.
Nicely edited video/interview
He has really good teeth.
Kanye's starting to come back into consciousness. He dropped a little bit of knowledge here.
K!NG MXNT this is from 2015
side Oh, never mind. To bad he actually sounded smart here.
As if he wasn't conscious already.
The editing is fantastic
This reminds me of a apple commercial. I just kept waiting on Kanye to say "the only thing thats different is Everything"
This aged well 😩
2020 Kanye for president
He is extremely clever and more clever than Biden but he won't win Obviously, I think he's doing it to help trump
