Sampling is stealing?
That being said, this episode had its moments.
Kanye's ego does not match his talent. For how he carries himself you'd think he was John Lennon, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder rolled into one. Notsomeone who :
- cannot produce unique or creative melodies and or/chord progressions at even an adequate rate
- isn't exceptionally charismatic
- is a good rapper but not great on any level
- is a mediocre at best singing talent
Explain to me again why this guy needs to be idolized? Anyone who has ANY perspective on the history of music can see this guy's a joke, newbies born in1990 who can't recognize a melody that was already done in 1976 and take it as Kanye just doing his "genius" thing are the only ones whocan't see past the BS.
