Kanye West never ceases to amaze me. His determination to be an authentic artist is an inspiration. How many times do our favorite artist get caught up in the hype, and become diluted because of a record labels hold, or a fans perception of how they should act. Kanye West has always passionately stayed true to himself. Even in his most negative moments, he triumphs. He reminds me of the teacher you may have had, that was just "Fresh As Shit". We Watch him go through pitfalls, and we learn from his episodes.People like Kanye West save lives. So many kids, and adults I know aren't interested in knowledge, or bettering themselves. Kanye West makes "knowledge of self" cool by juxtaposing topics that may not be put together in real time. Hip Hop can be used as a platform to speak to a younger generation, and give them hope. He debuts some of his new material to Facebook staff recently, and the song "Chain Heavy" has already struck me. He raps " I keep that g.o.a.t. book on an ottoman, and wrote hooks about slaves who was slaughtered in the 1800's."
