Kanye West

An arrogant prick who also happens to be one of the best and most creative forces in popular music today. Most of the people who keep blabbing about the Taylor Swift incident have never actually listened to his music. They may have heard "Stronger" or "Gold Digger" on the radio once, but that doesn't really count for much. All Kanye ever does is be honest. He just completely lacks constraint in what he does, in both his music and his public appearances. He never pretends to be something that he isn't, and as such his music isn't just boyish posturing like that of most rappers, it feels like a journey into his soul. Anyone who's listened all the way through "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" knows that. He's not a perfect guy. He says stupid things on camera. He gets angry, he flips out, he gets depressed. He's a normal human being, just like everyone else. And that's what makes his music so goddamn amazing.
