Showing Original Post only (View all)It's not mental illness, Kanye is just an asshole... [View all]
Sure, hes most definitely an untreated manic-depressive with delusions of grandeur. But hes also an attention seeking narcissist whos trying to ride Trumps dick as much as Trump is trying to ride Kanyes.
If theres one thing that these two guys are experts on, its making dick moves.
He knows exactly what hes up to. He simply doesnt care about the negative feedback, except for it being something that he believes that he can exploit for personal gain. Its pure assholelism, thats for sure.
Kanyes main problem is that he has no one around him to curb his impulse control. All because everyone around him does nothing other than to exploit him. His clear lack of introspection prevents him from realizing that he has a problem. His entire modus operandi is to deny that hed dealing with issues beyond his own control.
And those are just his problems on a personal level. Theres more...
With his untreated manic-depression and the fact that hes in constant contact with professional grifters, it wont be long until were hearing that hes been cheated for millions of dollars by the people within his closest circles.
Fame is fleeting and hes going out of his way to alienate the people who finance his lavish lifestyle, his fans. When you have people pining for the old Kanye, especially in terms of his music, its a clear sign that his current releases arent cutting it for his fans. Hes turning them away, and thats simply with his music.
His political shenanigans and manic outbursts of utter ignorance sours him to his former fans as well, not to mention others in the music industry. He clearly doesnt know what hes talking about at any given time and hes definitely not receptive to even constructive criticism. He views all of it as an attack. Controversy will only get you so far if no one wants to work with you and your product sounds lackluster. One decent track out of his latest release screams disappointment.
Kanye is headed for a big fall. His association with Trump is fueling the fire for future disappointment. Merely because its generally known that everything that Trump touches, dies. Most of all, his mouth is writing a lot of checks that his ass wont be able to cash. And thats not even pointing out his clear lack of a long term strategy.
In less than ten years, in all likelihood, hell end up as an afterthought in both wealth and fame. Does anyone really believes that Kim K. would stick with him if that were to happen? Nope.
So, all in all, I would decline to blame his overall aberrant behavior on his mental condition. In spite of it, being mentally ill isnt an excuse for being an asshole. Hes definitely an asshole all the way and hes pretty much the first person to admit that.
Thats clearly a sign that he knows exactly what hes doing, even though hes too freakin ignorant to understand why its all wrong.
As an aside, Ive made it clear that hes no longer welcome on my insignificant little radio program. Although it wont affect his bottom line one way or the other, my only motivation for not playing his music comes from my pledge to not enable his assholistic language and antics.
Take care, yall.
