    The media cuts out the minute before and after Kanye says "I just told you who I thought I was, a God" and takes the whole thing out of context. Better to listen to the whole thing and judge it by yourself and listen to his explanation for saying that.

      +YungstarProd the word for gods in that verse is "Elohim". It refers neither to you nor Kanye. It refers to the Jewish human judges who were put in charge of being God's representatives in legal matters and making sure victims were duly compensated and perpetrators were duly held accountable. It was also used by Jesus referring to the Pharisees, who also were supposed to hold that role. Again, it refers neither to you nor Kanye. Also, if you're going to use any scripture to back your beliefs, then be consistent and make sure your views are consistent with the rest of scripture. Don't cherry pick.

      +Ricky909 So by your response, only religious judges and lawyers are "gods". Cool. The bible has never been shy of the of the word "judges" before. So why not use them in these verses instead? Why the need for liaisons if he can judge the "wicked" themselves? Right....The bible doesn't support slavery and marriage by statutory rape.

      He is a God? Well he did create a song called "I Am a God" in which he/his character in the album feels God-like and even converses with Jesus about Kanye stacking millions (of dollars that is) and acknowledging that Jesus is the most high.
      He also has never claimed to be God so I don't see how bringing up what God does or doesn't do is relevant.
      Kanye has also talked about this very topic of modern African American culture seeking fame and fortune to change their personal lives rather than creating generational wealth. This also doesn't mean he can't have or buy chains, but rather that it shouldn't be the end goal like a lot of these newly wealthy black men and women.
      "Most black men couldn't balance a checkbook
      But buy a new car, talkin' 'bout "how my neck look?"
      Well, it all looks great
      Four hundred years later, we buyin' our own chains
      The light is before us brothers, so the devil workin' hard
      Real family stick together and see through the mirage
      The smokescreens, perceptions of false reality
      Who the real owner if your boss gets a salary?"
      He has also briefly gone into the predicament many african american males go through getting caught up in the system built to lure them into a cyclical lifestyle of drugs and jail. He would like to see all black people have better opportunities than the ones afforded to them.
      "Penitentiary chances, the devil dances
      And eventually answers to the call of Autumn
      All of them fallin’ for the love of ballin’
      Got caught with 30 rocks, the cop look like Alec Baldwin
      Inter century anthems based off inner city tantrums
      Based off the way we was branded
      Face it, Jerome get more time than Brandon
      And at the airport they check all through my bag
      And tell me that it’s random
      But we stay winning, this week has been a bad massage
      I need a happy ending and a new beginning
      And a new fitted, and some job opportunities that's lucrative
      This the real world, homie, school finished
      They done stole your dreams, you dunno who did it
      I treat the cash the way the government treats AIDS
      I won’t be satisfied til all my niggas get it, get it?"
      Hopefully you can look into more of Kanye's lyrics or interviews to really grasp that he is more than what the media and society labels him as. It is easier to believe the mob mentality that he is only terrible person, which he "is" and isn't.

    Basically he's saying, people who criticize him for calling himself a god, are the very same people who have been brainwashed by society, religion, mainstream media, to subconsciously think less of themselves, to belittle themselves, to live on this earth as a servant and conform while suppressing your godlike abilities in the process..Which is all very detrimental to a child of god, which in essences, if we are children of God...then we are all Gods. All Gods "Create" and we are all in existence to create in some form, despite what our corrupt society tells us, which is to slave your life away for somebody else and consume poisons on a regular basis that are design to suppress your godlike abilities and block your pineal gland...There's a reason why governments spend so much money on things that can hurt you, instead of things that can empower you, there's a reason why mainstream media regularly goes to great lengths to spread negativity instead of positivity to uplift people and raise consciousness, they'll rather suppress, control, and keep the masses living in fear-this has become obvious by now...
    They have been indoctrinating us ever since we were kids to be servants of a "system" that was designed to divide and suppress the majority. So, for a person to call themselves a God, especially a black person in America, the audacity of that idiot, who the fuck does he think he is ? ...My question to you is, who the fuck do you think you are, to criticize him ? Is he affecting your life in any way by calling himself a god ? Did he take food off your table or money out of your pocket ? Did he offend you because of how he feels about "HIMSELF" not you,"himself" ? If how a person views themselves offends you, then you're a victim of the very same system you follow or have been indoctrinated by...I've never been offended or criticized a person for how they view themselves and I never will....I'm not the biggest fan of his, but I salute Kanye, he's not conforming to the status quo and he's not settling for mediocrity, he's not letting negative energy stop him from striving to achieve greatness..whether you think he's great or not is besides the point. I view myself as a god creator as well, and I believe everyone should view themselves as such in this oppressive world we live in, but of course, everyone is their "own individual" you can believe in whatever you want...

      ***** He definitely understands what he's talking about, because he's clearly living by it through his attitude towards life..And once again, your views on his music being "hot garbage' is completely irrelevant to this topic and obviously subjective....And Yes, people like Krs-one, rakim etc. have called themselves god, because they studied knowledge of self, and people took them seriously..BUT, the big difference between them and kanye, is their polar opposite fan bases..A large majority of the old hip hop guys like Krs-one had a strong following of 5%'s listening to their music so of course Krs-one hardly got any criticism, because the people he was speaking to, understood his views, they weren't ignorant to it...
      Kanye is speaking to a more mainstream commercial audience of various backgrounds, whom are unfortunately extremely ignorant to almost everything, which would subject him to A LOT criticism than Krs-one would ever receive for calling himself a god...Mainstream America in general still do not understand the concept of I am god, they're completely ignorant to it...which is why kanye is getting shit for it, and the old school guys like Krs-one didn't because their messages were mainly being perpetuated through the underground hip hop culture to people who understood..

    • @PiniataMurderer
      @PiniataMurderer 9 років тому

      The pineal gland can't be suppressed dumb-ass. It is multi functional, controls the production and release of certain hormones, the part of the brain which differentiates darkness from light (as in the body knows regardless of sight if it is surrounded by light (electromagnetic radiation)or darkness (lack of EMR), produces melatonin, produces chemicals that affect sleep pattern, etc.... Melatonin is a tryptophan and can cause hallucination, euphoria, epiphany. Kind of like DMT. Monks practice meditation and are said to be able to open their third eye or in scientific terms force their pineal gland to release melatonin. Which technically gets you high. Pineal gland also releases large amounts of melatonin upon death or near death which gives people the perception of seeing something that to them is there but in reality isn't explained by hallucination. Like a white light or their life flashing before their eyes or a significant regret or their loved ones or god etc.... The pineal gland isn't more than what it is. A part of the brain with a function over the body. The third eye has been opened and what did those monks experience to find out just trip large doses of DMT and that's relatively what they experienced.

    • @itsonlyhalftime666X
      @itsonlyhalftime666X 9 років тому +6

      PiniataMurderer I didn't say suppress. I said "Block" the pineal gland..It is common knowledge that many foods and environmental toxins calcifies the pineal tissue, an accumulation of blockage..which is why monks practice detoxifying the pineal gland so they can get in a more visionary state amd reach their genius..And Yes, of course DMT is a totally natural substance that the body will manufacture and distribute, but only when it's in a "healed" state it will do so to a -high degree of awakening...Cleaning the pineal gland is necessary to reach a visionary state, which is the goal for those who want to tap into to their godlike abilities which are beyond the physical, but has been suppressed because of blockage of toxins... So it needs to be cleaned, detoxified, etc..I never said you lose your pineal gland or anything..It will always be there, it is part of the brain, it is multifunctional, I never said it wasn't..But if you're going to spew me that government textbook bullshit about the pineal gland being insignificant to our spiritual development, then you're wasting your time responding to me with your ignorance...

    You can't deny that Kanye is right about what he is saying. To this day, people still praise this guy's talent and no matter what controversial things he ever says, people are always still waiting for his next album. Kanye simply never undermines himself and he chose to always reach further heights no matter how impossible or silly. He became a god of his own world.

    Psalm 82:6 "I say you are all Gods, Sons of the most high". Lets start out with his "ego". When I was growing up my momma always told me to believe in myself, to have confidence, and to think I'm the best at what I do. I see a true visionary in Kanye. He's not afraid to say he's the best, he's not afraid to make mistakes. When he talks about slavery, its all mentally. People hate seeing such a self made, successful, and confident person they automatically hate. Kanye is an inspiration. He raps about what he feels, he's himself. The media portrays Kanye as a negative person, but they fail to mention how has donated millions to over 15 charities, but we're to busy watching him walk into a sign because he doesn't want his picture taken. It pains me to see how ignorant many people are judging him, even though they've never met the man. He's a true light in the darkness of our corrupted society.

    He didn't say "I am God", he said "I am A God". I interpret that as simply a sentient being with the ability to create and to reason on an advanced level. The majority of people are erroneously confusing what he's saying, thinking what he means is that he's THE God, but it's apparent that he means he perceives himself as beyond just merely human, possessing a creative power greater than most. He's empowering himself. Frankly, I agree. We all are god-like.

      You can sugar coat and twist and interpret all you want but God by definition is a supernatural and powerful being with a position that is higher to be able to rule over man. Simply placing "a" doesn't take away from that. He is not one nor is he the one. Simple. Find another word to describe your interpretation. Don't use GOD. Not offended just correcting. He is prideful and self confident but he shouldn't have done that. It would have been ontologically more appropriate to say, I am an Beast or I am a Genius, that would have been perfectly find and would still got his way of thinking to be a black man from Chicago with confidence and no self hate or reason to degrade himself.

      Kanye has achieved more than tupac. Don't hit me with that "he's a better rapper" bullshit, Kanye is more complex so is capable of a lot more and he still has more to come from him. So when he says "smart shit", it works perfectly the mans got vision

      +Aidan Burto I agree. If I'm completely honest I think Kanye West is underrated.
      At least in Sweden.
      It's not that he is not famous enough, but when you compare him to for instance Drake....

      +NoToleranceForIgnorance kanyes better than drake, drake just has a better image in the public eye so everyone dick rides him. Drake is amazingly good though don't get me wrong like I said Kanye can just do a whole lot more

      Aidan Burto Yes, I agree with you. Kanye has a lower talent:fame ratio

      +Aidan Burto well 2pac was only ever active about 4 or 5 ears and kanye's been in the game for like 15 years. so obviously he's gonna be able to do more work. Also kane is nowhere as complex or as versatile as pac was. also his vision is twisted due to his self righteous ego. He acts like a total douch on top of that and his clothing line is shit. kanye don't have the wisdom pac had, also this guys like in his 30's and acts like a little fucking kid half the time.

    The way he switches from narcissist to victim in the same breath is pathetic.

      @@failtolawl Listen here fanboy. Do you not understand what a narcissist is? It’s a person who has an excessive interest in or admiration of themselves.
      Kanye calls himself a God. That’s remarkably self-absorbed and cocky. In other words, narcissistic.
      In another interview he’s quoted saying he’s the artistic equivalent of Shakespeare which is utterly outlandish. There are countless other examples of him being a narcissist in his career
      Get off your knees clown. Let the adults talk.

    Wow
    I have never owned a Kanye record but this was powerful and on point.
    A point that easily gets taken out of context but he makes so much sense
