    "I am the next Nelson Mandela," West responded. "I'm only 36 years old, and when I look at everything I've accomplished, it's the only comparison that makes any sense. By the time I'm 95, I'm going to be a bigger hero than he ever was.

    "Nelson Mandela did a lot of good work, don't get me wrong. But I think I'm on track to do something even bigger. I liberate minds with my music. That's more important than liberating a few people from apartheid or whatever.

    The man has the IQ of a badly grown carrott. That is all I have to say.

    As a person he is a prick.

    As a musician he is beyond repute and will go down as a great IMO


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,944 ✭✭✭✭4zn76tysfajdxp


    Does it include the prison time?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 682 ✭✭✭LOSTfan57


    He has the IQ and talent of a carrot


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 519 ✭✭✭thecatspjs


    Lay off the carrots people, they're not the bad guys here

    Um, yeaaaaaaaa, and here's my favourite story from the sidebar:

    http://dailycurrant.com/2013/07/01/nasa-finds-message-from-god-on-mars/

    It's a mark of the man's idiocy that it's actually a plausible story though.

    Ohhh it's a fake.
    but its funny, knowing what the man has said in the past, you'd well believe he would say such a thing :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,324 ✭✭✭BillyMitchel


    As much as he is a complete tool. This is false. How do people fall for these stories time and time again.

    That's a piss take. If not Kayne is the worlds biggest asshole.

    Producer/Rapper?
    I thought he was just a user of oxegen who says thick ****e ha
    When KaimYe reads this though he will probably agree with it. Thats the real sad thing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭MadYaker


    This didn't actually happen, that's a satirical website.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 682 ✭✭✭LOSTfan57


    I was genuinely a bit curious, I thought he might have some musical talent I hadn't heard of. Anyway, I won't comment on his talent as a producer, I'm not familiar enough with what makes one good at production, but I know there are much better rappers out there.

    Hes not that great a producer either.

    Thats exactly what the carrots want you to think...............


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,087 ✭✭✭thomasj


    Apparently its a hoax.

    http://metro.co.uk/2013/12/08/fans-outraged-after-fake-kanye-west-interview-sees-him-declare-i-am-next-nelson-mandela-4222366/

    Paris Hilton is also claiming that a reported tweet by her confusing Mandela with martin Luther king is a hoax.

    If it happened, then it's nothing new. Remember when John Lennon remarked that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus? Kanye West just has an over-inflated ego is all.

    Well one had talent...the other.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,683 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    The Daily Currant is another Onion type website, catching lots of folks off guard lately.

    But I'm ok with that because that means its perfectly executed, believable satire :pac: Because Kanye is a moron

    You mean one had music to your taste and the other didn't ;)

    True or not, he's still a Gobsh!t.
    All his songs are the same
    "Uh, ah, yeah, uhh, ah, yeah, I'm black, uh, ahhh, yeah"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,420 ✭✭✭electrobanana


    I hear he's a huge fan of fishsticks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,158 ✭✭✭Arawn


    I'm all for locking him up for 30 odd years
