meh guess you haven't talked to a christian lately but they will tell you that we are all gifts from god so I don't see any arrogance in that statement that you do. He needs to be full of himself especially in his industry and trying to break out of the producer rapper mold but that's all he'll ever be to me. You have to be full of yourself or else you end up being full of self -doubt from others trying to break you down. I admit he's a bit cocky but it works for him. Some people have type A personalities and he's one of them.

the album you are thinking of is probably 808s and heartbreaks and as far as his performance all you saw was his AI one and deemed him a horrible performer based off of one experience. Kanye west is all about performance! I guess you haven't seen any footage from his shows. Especially the last show he had, The lights and sounds one or w/e that had Lupe Fiasco in it.

I don't have any idea why I spent so much time defending him. Maybe I need to go out for a walk and get some fresh air
