Kanye Omari West [ˈkɑːnjeɪ oʊˈmɑri wɛst] , auch bekannt als Ye, ist ein US-amerikanischer Rapper, Sänger, Musikproduzent und Modedesigner. Aufgewachsen ist er in Chicago, Illinois. Seine Karriere begann mit Musikproduktionen für den Rapper Jay-Z, an dessen erfolgreichem Album The Blueprint er maßgeblich mitwirkte. Auch mit dem Sänger John Legend sowie dem Rapper Common, beide bei seinem Plattenlabel GOOD Music unter Vertrag stehend, arbeitete West eng zusammen. Seit Ende 2003 veröffentlicht er eigene Singles und Alben, auf denen er meist als Rapper und Produzent gleichermaßen in Erscheinung tritt.

West gilt als einer der prägendsten Musiker der Hip-Hop- und Popmusik des 21. Jahrhunderts. Beeinflusst von einer Vielzahl an Musikgenres, war er maßgeblich an der kommerziellen Abkehr des Hip-Hop vom Gangsta-Rap hin zu emotionaleren, oft auch gesungenen Inhalten beteiligt. Mit allein in den USA über 60 Millionen verkauften Tonträgern und Downloads gehört West zu den weltweit erfolgreichsten Musikern. Die Time zählte ihn 2005 und 2015 zu den 100 einflussreichsten Menschen der Welt. Neben der Musik ist West bekannt für seine häufig kontroversen Aussagen und Auftritte, die auf eine große öffentliche Resonanz stießen. Wikipedia

I Am a God
Lyrics, Yeezus (2013)

“Never was much of a romantic
I could never take the intimacy
And I know I did damage
'Cause the look in your eyes is killing me
I guess you knew of that advantage
'Cause you could blame me for everything
And I don't know how I'ma manage
If one day, you just up and leave.”

Monster
Lyrics, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010)

We're just racing time, where's the finish line?”

Big Brother
Lyrics, Graduation (2007)

“She don't believe in shooting stars
But she believe in shoes and cars Order the hors d'oeuvres, views of the water
Straight from a page of your favorite author
And the weather's so breezy
Man, why can't life always be this easy?”

Flashing Lights
Lyrics, Graduation (2007)

“And I'm back on my grind
A psychic read my lifeline, told me in my lifetime
My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
And that's why I'm
Seven o'clock, that's primetime
Heaven'll watch, God calling from the hotlines
Why he keep giving me hot lines?
I'm a star, how could I not shine?”

I Wonder
Lyrics, Graduation (2007)

“Good morning and look at the valedictorian
Scared of the future while I hop in the DeLorean
Scared to face the world, complacent career student
Some people graduate, but be still stupid”

Everything they told me not to is exactly what I would.

You make me smile.”

Addiction
Lyrics, Late Registration (2005)

And anything that happens is for a reason The devil is alive, I feel him breathin'
Claiming money is the key, so keep on dreamin'
And put them lottery tickets just to tease us”

Heard 'Em Say
Lyrics, Late Registration (2005)

“And I heard 'em say
Nothing's ever promised tomorrow or today
From the Chi, like Tim, it's a harder way
So this is in the name of love like Robert say
Before you ask me to go get a job today,
Can I at least get a raise on the minimum wage?”

Heard 'Em Say
Lyrics, Late Registration (2005)

“Now I could let these dream killers kill my self esteem,
Or use my arrogance as the steam to power my dreams
I use it as my gas, so they say that I'm gassed
But without it I'd be last, so I ought to laugh.”

Last Call
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

“I woke up early this morning with a new state of mind,
A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns.
Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to God,
And keep your face to the rising sun. I feel like one day you'll understand me, dawg
You can still love your man and be manly, dawg”

Family Business
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

“Now that you're gone, it hit us
Super hard on Thankgiving and Christmas, this can't be right.
Yo, you heard the track I did man, 'This Can't Be Life'.
Somebody please say grace so I can save face
And have a reason to cover my face.”

Family Business
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

Tellin' her her son's on life support?
And just imagine how my girl feel,
On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till.”

Through the Wire
Lyrics, The College Dropout (2004)

“God show me the way, because the Devil's trying to break me down
The only thing that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
And I don't think there's nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
I wanna talk to God, but I'm afraid 'cause we ain't spoke in so long.”

But people highest up got the lowest self esteem.
The prettiest people do the ugliest things
For the road to riches and diamond rings.”
