What's impressive about Kanye is that when he reached the peak of the particular art form he was in (his music), he was willing to start on a whole new art form, where it was sure that he would initially have to go through a pain process.

That's what we all have to do. Not just keep repeating the same shit in slightly different forms, but go somewhere else and do something new.

You can't know what you don't know till you've been somewhere you haven't ever been.

Kanye West found a way to prevent his content being made readable, even via readability.

Gimp to the rescue! http://hrishimittal.com/kanye_west_on_creativity.jpg

Not enough for me, I'm afraid. I suppose someone could run it through OCR and put it into a normal paragraph form, but I'm not convinced it's worth the bother.

though some may just not like the guy (for whatever reason), you can't deny the level of creativity that this dude possesses. his concert was the first i ever attended back in 05 in Dallas & every single hip-hop concert i've attended since (about 15 thus far) has paled in comparison (in terms of just sheer originality)
