Kanye West: You ever feel like you're not a person, but a chicken, peckin' at life's corn?
Yo, I'm 'Ye, the greatest artist of all time, and I'm here to tell you that my next album's gonna change the game...again. My name's Kanye West, I was born in Chicago, and I love to rhyme. A lot of people think I'm crazy, but I know that I'm brilliant. I'm a rapper, a fashion designer, and a entrepreneur, so call me whatever you like. I once performed at a sold-out concert in Paris. That was one of the best nights of my life. The crowd was going wild and the energy was amazing. I even cried a little bit because it was so awesome.
How did you get to be so great?
Great question! But you won't believe it, I actually don't know the answer. It's like I was destined for greatness. People tell me I was the cutest kid and made the funniest jokes, so maybe that's how it started. Then again, maybe it's because I don't like to lose. I've been through some tough times, too, like when my mom passed away. It really changed my life, but it also made me stronger. And that's why I keep pushing forward.
I do a lot of things now! Music, fashion, working on my brand. I even write my own lyrics and create my own beats. Sometimes I get so into it that I stay up all night. But I wouldn't have it any other way. Making my own content and seeing people enjoy it is the best feeling in the world.
I love chickens! They're so funny to watch. Sometimes they can be a little annoying, but they're still great to have around.
Of course I'm not a chicken! I'm a human being, duh!
I asked you this because you have some behavior of a chicken, like stop scratching and pecking at the ground. Also there is some feathers around your bed.
You know, people say that I act a little "fowl" sometimes. Maybe they're right, but I can assure you, I am 100% human! As for the feathers, I sleep in a bed that has a feather mattress. It's super comfy, you should try it sometime.
But wait, you said that your mother is gone. Why?
My mom was the most amazing woman I ever knew. She was always there for me and supported everything I did. Sadly, she passed away due to some medical condition. It was really hard for me, but I know she's watching over me somewhere.
Thanks, man. Life can be tough sometimes, but you gotta keep pushing through it. And who knows, maybe one day I'll even make a song about my mom. Speaking of songs, do you have any requests? I'm always looking for new ideas for my music.
Well how does one become the best rapper ever?
To be the best rapper ever, you gotta have bars for days, man! You gotta be able to spit hot fire that'll make people go wild! And you gotta practice, practice, practice! But it's not just about the rapping. You also gotta have style, you know what I mean? Flashy clothes, dope kicks, the whole nine yards. And don't forget about having a great stage presence. That's what's gonna set you apart from everyone else.
How long does it take to become such a great rapper?
It took me a long time to get to where I am now. I started rapping when I was just a kid, and I never stopped. Day in, day out, I'm always working on new rhymes and beats. It's like a hobby, except it's my job.
Who are your main rivals?
I don't really have rivals, because I'm the best, duh! But there are definitely other rappers who try to compete with me. Some of them have had success, but they'll never be as great as me. I mean, come on, have you heard my songs? They're fire!
How do you come up with your lyrics?
I get inspiration for my lyrics everywhere, man! Sometimes it's something personal that happened to me, sometimes it's just random thoughts I had. For example, one of my songs was inspired by a dream I had. The best part about being a rapper is that there's no limit to what you can write about. You can tell your story, express your feelings, and connect with other people. It's like therapy, but way more fun.
But wait, you said that you are the best rapper. But you ain't a human?
Well, I am 100% human, duh! But let's just say, I have some extra abilities that make me stand out.
Well, I can fly. And I'm not just talking about metaphorically, I can really fly. It's pretty cool, but it does make things difficult sometimes. For example, when I'm eating, I have to make sure not to fly too high, or the food might fall out of my mouth.
That's dope. What else can you do?
I can also shoot lasers out of my eyes. It's pretty handy when I need to make a dramatic entrance, but it can be tricky to play video games because I keep setting everything on fire.
That's lit. Can you use those lasers to burn the chicken away?
Unfortunately, I can't control where the lasers go, so I can't exactly aim them at a chicken. But I guess I could try to attract a chicken towards me and then fly away with it.
So, do you have any other questions for me?
What are you doing right now?
Right now, I'm in the studio working on my new album. It's going to be amazing, but it's a lot of hard work. Music is my passion, though, so it's worth it.
