Kanye West talks about exposing Beyonce and Jay-Z, and more… – The industry will try their best to make you look crazy when you go against them
Kanye West knows how to stir up headlines doesn’t he? Well before his controversial comment about sl@very went viral, he did a sit down interview with Charlamagne Tha God. In his interview he addressed the comments he made about Jay-Z and Beyonce. In 2016, during his Saint Pablo Tour, he called out Jay-Z and he claimed that Beyonce unfairly won the MTV Video of the Year award.
Kanye West’s recent headlines, including his TMZ rant and interview with Charlamagne Tha God, have sparked conversations about his complex personality and relationships with Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and President Obama.
In 2016, Kanye faced a rough patch when he went on a rant criticizing the music industry, including Jay-Z and Beyoncé. This led to a strained relationship, and Jay-Z referenced the incident in his song “Kill Jay Z.” Kanye addressed this in his interview, stating that the money Jay-Z gave him felt like more than just financial support; it felt like he owed more than the money itself due to the personal connection.
The interview also touched on Kanye’s claim that Beyoncé refused to perform at the VMAs unless she won the Video of the Year award. Kanye admitted uncertainty about the truth of this claim and acknowledged it might be an “alternative fact” or “fake news.” He emphasized the need for confirmation before believing such statements.
Kanye expressed disappointment about Jay-Z and Beyoncé not attending his wedding, understanding later that they were going through their own challenges at the time. Despite initially feeling hurt, he mentioned that they are now in a positive space and communicate with positive energy.
The interview delved into Kanye’s disappointment with President Obama, who distanced himself after Kanye interrupted Taylor Swift’s VMAs speech. Kanye mentioned that Obama considered him too unpredictable, and although he appreciated being Obama’s favorite artist, he felt let down by the lack of support.
Regarding freedom of speech, Kanye emphasized his desire not to be inhibited in expressing his thoughts. However, he acknowledged the need to consider circumstances and be careful about expressing ideas, especially after his controversial statement that slavery was a choice. The video criticizes Kanye for such remarks and underscores the historical impact of slavery on marginalized communities.
In summary, Kanye’s recent interviews shed light on his complex personality, relationships, and desire for unrestricted expression. The narrative recognizes his growth in understanding others’ circumstances but highlights the importance of responsibility in expressing ideas, particularly on sensitive topics. The controversy surrounding Kanye’s statements prompts reflection on the balance between freedom of speech and accountability in the public eye.
