The name Kanye means “The only one” in Swahili, this is why I think that Kanye West’s name fits him perfectly(BOOMSbeat). I say this because Kanye has the mindset that he is the only one, the absolute best. Kanye has the self confidence that every teenage girl wishes she had. Kanye shows his self-confidence through his music. In a matter of fact, Kanye is a 21 time Grammy winning rapper (BOOMSbeat). My favorite tweet actually says something along the lines of, “Should I listen to Kanye and think about me, or should I listen to Drake and think about you.” This is my favorite tweet because it shows that in Kanye’s music he tends to write about his self-confidence, rather than in Drake’s music where he writes about his feelings. Kanye’s self-confidence is one of the many things that make him influential. Kanye doesn't care about what other people think about him so he tends to do what he wants, which is how more people should act personally. A big scene Kanye made was at the 2009 VMA’s when he went onstage and interrupted Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech because he thought that Beyonce should have received the award instead (BOOMSbeat). Another big scene Kanye had made was back in 2005 when he went off script saying “George Bush doesn't care about black people” at a live televised concert for hurricane relief (BOOMSbeat).

You need to be self confident, without self confidence you are not going to go anywhere in your life because you can't even believe in yourself so who else will. It is okay to speak your mind, you shouldn't have to hold back and bite your tongue every time you're getting ready to say something because you're scared of how others will react. Forget what others think about you and just be you. Yeezy also taught me that he is the greatest hip hop artist of all time and sometimes change is good. Don’t forget that “You may be talented, but you’re not Kanye West” said by the one and only, Kanye

For my assessment of Kanye West's personality, I am going to use the personality theory that Paul Costa and Robert McCrae invented. Costa and McCrae invented O.C.E.A.N or the Big Five Personality Traits. The theory is that our personality traits fit within five main categories. All of our personality traits either fall under the category of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, or neuroticism. Openness relates to things such as whether a person is close minded or openminded, the degree to which one is thoughtful and rational when looking at new ideas. Conscientiousness relates to how attentive someone is, they could be very attentive and pay attention to things like detail or could be inattentive and be more careless. Extraversion is about how energetic you are around other people, if you are highly extroverted then you are talkative and enjoy the company of other people. Someone who is less extroverted would enjoy the

He has made a tremendous mark in the music and fashion industry. As we all know Mr. West is known for having his moments. It is safe to say that he has the best and top “omg” Moments, such as interrupting Taylor Swift at the VMA’s. Kanye in the begging when he first came on the hip hop scene was this calm, joyful, his music in my eyes was the most different music out at the time, just because he wasn’t rapping about what everyone else was. Kanye was one of those joyful guys, everybody wanted him on his record or produce it. Then a tragic event occurred where his mom died. After then you see
In his spoken word song “I Love Kanye”, West pokes fun at the media’s egotistical perception of himself. He raps, “What if Kanye made a song about Kanye? // Call it ‘Mr. Old Kanye’, man that’d be so Kanye // that’s all it was Kanye, we still love Kanye // and I love you like Kanye loves Kanye…” (I Love 1). This is evidence that Kanye isn’t the blind, egotistical, out of control superstar. Kanye West is just like everyone
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, today we have the great privilege of being able to listen to a man that I like to refer to as the new rap royalty.

Drake has become one of the fastest growing and interesting empires that we have seen from the hip-hop scene in a long time.

Chavez built an organization supporting farmers in California. Cesar Chavez made a unique speech that left a powerful legacy behind him after people read and heard his speech.
Kanye West likely seeks reinforcement and loves attention, negative or positive from individuals he does not know, or is not familiar with because of his constant need for attention. He acts the way he does due to his thought process and erratic personality/ personality disorders.

This source was a speech given by the 43rd President George W. Bush on September 11th, 2001 at 8:30P.M. It was about the tragedy that occurred that day on America’s soil. It left many in shock, terror, pain, and anger. The speech was given at the White House and it told Americans what had happened that day.
The best way to get a four spot on the Billboard Hot 100, is by rapping about something everyone will go through, a heartbreak. That is what Kanye West did in “Heartless,” a song about a heartbreak he went through with former fiancee Alexis Phifer. The song debuted as a single but was later put on his 808s & Heartbreaks album. The song explains nearly everything about his relationship. They both made mistakes, but she’d act as if hers were minor. That is why he states, “I’m gonna take of tonight.” He emphasizes the word tonight, to prove he is exhausted and wants to be taken seriously. But he then argues himself by asking why they always end up late night on the phone. Which proves who is the intended audience. Simply, anyone that has gone through something similar, sometimes ends up on the phone with them late night with remorse. West’s tone in is angry in this song. He was tired of his ex-fiancee, who left him at his lowest point. When his mother had passed away just months before he was finished working on this album. Both of the women that he loved the most have left his life, in an instant. Kanye just began working on his music as a way to overlook the trials set ahead of him. He released this song and it was only the second time he used auto tune. Apparently auto tune can get you a 5x platinum record, mind that’s five million sales.
“Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you…I’ll let you finish. But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!” (West). Most people if they don’t know anything about Kanye West, they know this quote.

Though most people only see the arrogant and egotistic side of Kanye, the more important side that people don’t always see is the hardworking musician. In order to fully understand Kanye’s motives and to fully appreciate him, people have to know how he got to the point he is now today.
Even though Uzi’s music is considered rap, his songs are really different compared to ordinary songs. His word choice and lyrics aren’t always the standard rap lyrics you hear, that usually talk about having money, fame, etc. For example, in one his more recent songs, “XO TOUR Llif3” the lyrics talk about his friends being dead and his not caring if his ex-girlfriend cries. Perhaps, if Uzi didn’t hate rapping that would make him an ordinary rapper, but he is truly far from
Throughout history, the biggest reforms in government, philosophy, and behavior have been made by freethinking and outspoken people. People such as Ghandi, Martin Luther King Jr., and Nelson Mandela changed the world with their actions and words. While others, including Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Walt Disney implement their talents to business to change the world. All are spoken highly of and are highly regarded. One name that is wrongly not considered for this list is Kanye West.

From being known to creating compose hip-hop music, a fashion icon and establishing a foundation with his mother to being seen as the most hated celebrity in the entertainment industry. Kanye West took it upon himself to defend his opinion when it came to the winner of the Best Female Video on the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. By taking the stage and grabbing the microphone from the country music star Taylor Swift and basically stating that she did not deserve the title. The event left the audience and TV land very stocked. What some may not realize is that Kanye West displayed multiple stereotypes that society may think African Americans possess. The stereotypes, which were displayed, were drunkenness, outspokenness and the fact that a
