His personality has been a mess all these years, not a shocker

Y'all are a damn mess, and if this was ANYONE else in the WORLD acting like this, y'all would be dragging them to the pits of hell.
But I guess he does have one thing in common with Steve Jobs: he's a terrible, insufferable human being who happens to be very good at his craft. Congratulations.  Good luck teaching that child any decent morals, because between the two of them, I honestly am scared for that kid's future.

On why he does not appear on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”: “You know, the amount of backlash I got from it is when I decided to not be on the show anymore. And it’s not that I have an issue with the show; I just have an issue with the amount of backlash that I get. Because I just see like, an amazing person that I’m in love with that I want to help.”

Why does he think he got backlash from not wanting to be on the show? From what I recall, he got praise for that decision.

He seems to become more funny(delusional) with age but I am on the floor at some of the stuff he allows to come out of his mouth

Read the whole thing, cause you're missing out on some context. He's talking about backlash he got because people would interpret totally innocent things like him trying to be affectionate with his wife as something else. That's what made him leave the show.

He has an extremely rotten personality for my taste but one cannot deny his music dominance and creativity. But it's refreshing to have someone so full of themselves. Refreshing because he actually is able to back up all his claims. So for that,I barely look to much into these interviews.

Thanks Woozy. Reading the entire interview, this one is a hard one to excerpt. Every little quote connects with a big chunk of something said prior.

This whole bit:
Quote:
So if you had a choice between taking back the original action [Taylor Swift incident] or taking back the apology, you’d take back the apology?
You know what? I can answer that, but I’m — I’m just — not afraid, but I know that would be such a distraction. It’s such a strong thing, and people have such a strong feeling about it. “Dark Fantasy” was my long, backhanded apology. You know how people give a backhanded compliment? It was a backhanded apology. It was like, all these raps, all these sonic acrobatics. I was like: “Let me show you guys what I can do, and please accept me back. You want to have me on your shelves.”
The Albums
That’s fascinating, to look at that record through that lens.
I don’t have some type of romantic relationship with the public. I’m like, the anti-celebrity, and my music comes from a place of being anti. That was the album where I gave people what they wanted. I don’t think that at that point, with my relationship with the public and with skeptical buyers, that I could’ve done “Black Skinhead” [from “Yeezus]
Does that make “Dark Fantasy” a dishonest album in some way?
It’s always going to be 80 percent, at least, what I want to give, and 20 percent fulfilling a perception. If you walk into an old man’s house, they’re not giving nothing. They’re at 100 percent exactly what they want to do. I would hear stories about Steve Jobs and feel like he was at 100 percent exactly what he wanted to do, but I’m sure even a Steve Jobs has compromised. Even a Rick Owens has compromised. You know, even a Kanye West has compromised. Sometimes you don’t even know when you’re being compromised till after the fact, and that’s what you regret.

This was probably a great interview, but it's chopped up and in print so

When Kanye abandons his child, denies paternity and fails to financially provide for it, then we can compare him to Steve Jobs. The only negative trait they have in common is that they're too cocky for their own good at times, but Kanye at his worst is merely annoying. Steve on the other hand was a genuinely ****** human being.
Anyway, at this point I'd like to think he's trolling everyone with saying the stuff that he says, because he knows it will cause a ruckus. Though I will admit it's stupid of him to try and take back his apology to Taylor Swift. Just move on from it.
