In an article he composed for Paper magazine, the same magazine that helped Kim K break the web, Kanye West said he's sick of the thought that celebs are controlling society as individuals from the mystery assemble, The Illuminati. He said celebs don't have that sort of force.
"I heard a remark - a joke - about the Tidal question and answer session being an Illuminati minute. On the off chance that there was really an Illuminati, it would be more like the vitality organizations. Not superstars that gave their life to music and who are pinpointed as fakes for individuals who truly run the world. I'm burnt out on individuals pinpointing performers as the Illuminati. That is silly. We don't run anything; we're VIPs. We're the substance of brands. We need to bargain what we say in verses so we don't lose cash on an agreement. Madonna is in her 50s and gave all that she needed to go up on a recompense indicate and get stifled by her cape. She's judged for who she receives. F**k the greater part of this emotionalism. We issued you our lives. We issued you our hearts. We issued you our suppositions!"See more photos and see his full write up after the cut...
Let's just tap back into the real world for a second -- we can have children. Let's be thankful. We can raise our kids, let's be thankful. But how about we raise our kids in a truthful world, not a world based on brands and concepts of perception? Perception is not reality. When I look in North's eyes, I'm happy about every mistake I've ever made. I'm happy that I fought to bring some type of reality to this world we choose to stay in right now, driven by brands and corporations.
I also love people being inspired to follow their dreams, because I think people are oppressed by smoke and mirrors, by perception. There isn't an example of a living celebrity that has more words formed against him, but just a little self-belief can go a long way. I think the scariest thing about me is the fact that I just believe. I believe awesome is possible and I believe that beauty is important. When I say "beauty," what's your current definition of beauty? When I think beauty, I think of an untouched forest, only created by God's hand. I think of a gray sky that separates the architecture from the background and creates these amazing photographs because you don't have to block the sun above you when you're taking the photograph. I think beauty is important and it's undermined by our current corporate culture. When you think about the corporate office, you don't see the importance of beauty. I think all colors are beautiful and in a corporate world only one color is. But another thing is that I believe money is important. I think that artists have been brainwashed to look at money as a bad thing, and it's not. I think they're equally important in our current civilization.
When I was 10 years of age I lived in China, and at the time they used to come up to me and rub my face to check whether the shading would rub off. It was truly messed up, yet I have an inclination that it was setting me up for a world viewpoint that a great deal of my companions who never got an opportunity to travel didn't get. Presently my viewpoint, a ton of times, is such a great amount of more extensive than somebody who's constrained to the idea of any specific purported world that is not this present reality. I consider the majority of what's going on, from the blast of business in San Francisco to the neediness in Africa - and that is wide point of view. When I was in fifth grade in China, when children would come up to me and touch my face, it was similar to they had never seen a dark individual previously, however that was a while back. That was 20 years prior and obviously we've progressed beyond anyone's expectations now. That is not the present perspective. On "Never Let Me Down" I rapped, "Bigotry's still alive, they simply be covering it," yet for the cutting edge that is not so much genuine. Bigotry is something that is taught, however for the new post-Internet, post-iPad kids that have been taught to swipe before they read, its fair not going to influence them as much. They understand that we are one race. We're diverse hues - my cousins and I are distinctive shapes and we're all from one gang. We're all from one family called humankind. It's basic as that. This race is up against some intriguing things - neediness, war, a dangerous atmospheric devation, classism - and we need to meet up to beat this. It'll just be as an aggregate that we can beat this, and we can. We can make a superior world for ourselves.
Individuals have inquired as to why I don't stand up - on social networking, for instance - about occasions in this nation. The way I see it, its not about a post on social networking from me when there are individuals biting the dust. There's kin in Chicago passing on. There's kin all over the globe kicking the bucket for reasons unknown! There's kin who'll never have the chance to experience their lives for awful, counter-intuitive reasons. I think about individuals. I think about society. I think about individuals being motivated. I think about individuals trusting in themselves, in light of the fact that that is the scariest thing. The current populace can't be controlled by the framework - they break the framework.
