I am Warhol. I am the No. 1 most impactful artist of our generation. I am Shakespeare in the flesh.
Quote by -Kanye West
You don't have to be scared of me, because I am loyal. Why are people so scared of creative ideas and so scared of truth? All I want to do is do good.
Quote by -Kanye West
Creative output, you know, is just pain. I'm going to be cliche for a minute and say that great art comes from pain.
Quote by -Kanye West
I would hear stories about Steve Jobs and feel like he was at 100 percent exactly what he wanted to do, but I'm sure even a Steve Jobs has compromised. Even a Rick Owens has compromised. You know, even a Kanye West has compromised. Sometimes you don't even know when you're being compromised till after the fact, and that's what you regret.
Quote by -Kanye West
My message isn't perfectly defined. I have, as a human being, fallen to peer pressure.
Quote by -Kanye West
I really appreciate the moments that I was able to win rap album of the year or whatever.
Quote by -Kanye West
I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice.
Quote by -Kanye West
If I was just a fan of music, I would think that I was the number one artist in the world.
Quote by -Kanye West
Know your worth! People always act like they're doing more for you than you're doing for them.
Quote by -Kanye West
I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family it says they're looting, if you see a white family it says they're looking for food.
Quote by -Kanye West
I can always tell if a band has a British rhythm section due to the gritty production.
Quote by -Kanye West
Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to god, and keep your face to the raising sun.
Quote by -Kanye West
I thank Marc Jacobs so much for giving me the opportunity to design a shoe for Louis Vuitton, but the thing that broke my heart most was when they said, 'You're finished. The shoe's finished.'
Quote by -Kanye West
Thirty-three-years-old, still creating art. It's rage, it's creativity, it's pain, it's hurt, but it's the opportunity to still have my voice get out there through music.
Quote by -Kanye West
The concept of commercialism in the fashion and art world is looked down upon. You know, just to think, 'What amount of creativity does it take to make something that masses of people like?' And, 'How does creativity apply across the board?'
Quote by -Kanye West
Michael Jordan changed so much in basketball, he took his power to make a difference. It's so much going on in music right now and somebody has to make a difference.
Quote by -Kanye West
Black people can be the most conservative, the most discriminating. Especially among ourselves. It wasn't white people who said all black men have to wear baggy jeans.
Quote by -Kanye West
I'm pretty calculating. I take stuff that I know appeals to people's bad sides and match it up with stuff that appeals to their good sides.
Quote by -Kanye West
I didn't want to play it boring and safe. I also didn't want to innovate too much. Second albums, man, they're even scarier than first ones.
Quote by -Kanye West
But for me to have the opportunity to stand in front of a bunch of executives and present myself, I had to hustle in my own way. I can't tell you how frustrating it was that they didn't get that. No joke - I'd leave meetings crying all the time.
Quote by -Kanye West
It was a strike against me that I didn't wear baggy jeans and jerseys and that I never hustled, never sold drugs.
Quote by -Kanye West
People always say that you can't please everybody. I think that's a cop-out. Why not attempt it? 'Cause think of all the people you will please if you try.
Quote by -Kanye West
I'll say things that are serious and put them in a joke form so people can enjoy them. We laugh to keep from crying.
Quote by -Kanye West
If you see a black family, it's looting, but if it's a white family they are looking for food.
Quote by -Kanye West
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus, that means guns, sex, lies, video tapes, but if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?
Quote by -Kanye West
I ain't here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way yall need Jesus.
Quote by -Kanye West
Every time I say something that's extremely truthful out loud, it literally breaks the Internet.
Quote by -Kanye West
For me, money is not my definition of success. Inspiring people is a definition of success.
Quote by -Kanye West
I liberate minds with my music. That's more important than liberating a few people from apartheid or whatever.
Quote by -Kanye West
I am God's vessel. But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.
Quote by -Kanye West
Would you believe in what you believe in if you were the only one who believed it?
