Is Kanye West really a delusional, egotistical moron who actually believes the crazy that comes out of his mouth? Or is his whole media image an elaborate dupe in which he purposely portrays himself in a negative light?
He's satire

Most likely this
Think about the amount of people who rage over him, "WHAT A FUCKING TALENTLESS HACK, I HATE KANYE WEST!!! BRING BACK REAL MUSIC!!"
But yet Pitchfork and /mu/fags are like "artistically relevant, amazing albums - wow talented hip hop"
I think he's pretty funny and his music is OK.

If his behavior is indeed purposely satirical then it is the greatest satire ever created, literally almost everyone believes that the way we see Kanye in the media is how he actually is. But if this the case then we have to ask, what exactly is the purpose? What is trying to say or draw attention to?
If you look at other famous celebrities, their entire media image is controlled by people to portray them to you in a certain way, but Kanye seems to have disregarded this aspect of fame and controls his own image, saying exactly what he feels like instead of "sticking to the script" and not caring about offending anyone. Is his egotistical angry rants just his way of manipulating the media and everyone else into giving him attention without "conforming" to the tactics other celebrities use to achieve this?

both
He's just a mentally broken man. He blames himself for his mother's death and has never recovered.

dumbest thing I've read. thats not even progression thats just reviving shit white people have discarded
kanye is a legit idiot
>>63327763
I'm pretty sure he'd both.
>>63327763
its obvious kanye is genuinely egotistic like every other talented person who has lived but he exaggerates it for fame
>>63327763
Honestly I think it is some where in between
It's this thread again
He's a sincerely unintelligent egotist with bad taste in music and women
You're absolutely insane if you think he's some genious and his twitter ramblings are "all a part of the master plan"
His album sales and downloads decrease by large chunks every release, he's 56 million in debt, brilliant plan eh?

>>63327772
He is satire without being aware of it.

its this post again

Because he's making obscure albums. Obscure in terms of pop music that is. If he cared about his album and download sales he would make an album full of radio hits.

'wayward celeb says stupid shit for attention' isn't some new phenomenon you know, it's been an archetype since day one
Anyone have the updated version of The Life of Pablo?

I like kanye for this
