Top Five Quotes of the Week: Kanye West Edition

Posted on February 20, 2009 - 12:09pm by Contributing Co... So this week I decided to switch things up a bit.  I was reading an interview in Details magazine with Kanye West and there were so many Kanye-isms that I thought I would feature some in this week's Top 5.  I know that not everyone likes Mr. West, but really, this interview is hilarious (with some of the things he says) yet captivating (I think he is an incredibly interesting person).

Love him or hate him, check out the top five Kanye West lines from the interview!

5. I have, like, nuclear power, like a superhero, like Cyclops when he puts his glasses on.

4. People ask me a lot about my drive.  I think it comes from, like, having a sexual addiction at a really young age.  Look at the drive that people have to get sex—to dress like this and get a haircut and be in the club in the freezing cold at 3 a.m., the places they go to pick up a girl.  If you can focus the energy into something valuable, put that into work ethic... "

3. First beat I did was in seventh grade, on my computer.  I got into doing beats for the video games I used to try to make.  My game was very sexual.  The main character was, like, a giant penis.  It was like Mario Brothers, but the ghosts were, like, vaginas.  Mind you, I'm 12 years old, and this is stuff 30-year-olds are programming.  You'd have to draw in and program every little step—it literally took me all night to do a step, 'cause the penis, y'know, had little feet and eyes.

2. Oh my God, I'm one of the greatest rappers in the world.  I'll get on a track and completely ee-nihilate that track, I'll eat it and rip it in half.  I wouldn't have to think of it.

1. There's nothing more to be said about music.  I'm the f***ing end-all, be-all of music.  I know what I'm doing.  I did 808s in three weeks.  I got it.  It's on cruise control.

I think he should have his own TV show or something, because everything that comes out of his mouth is entertaining!  So to continue in your entertainment and read what else Kanye has to say, check out the full interview here.

And come back next week as we return to Hollywoodland and see what other celebs are talking about!
