i think this conundrum arises because people are continually shocked by the fact that people they consider "bad people" can also be talented artists and create art that moves you. kanye is a good case in point. i once saw a tweet trying to rewrite his story, something along the lines of "now that kanye is wilding can we all agree that his music was never good." and i just found that weird. why is it so difficult to hold both categories in our head? i.e. kanye is wilding rn + kanye is also actually a really good singer.

There's a difference between an artist lashing out at critics over a bad review and saying Hitler was a good guy. With Kanye, I've struggled to determine if he's serious or just saying outrageous things for attention. Some people consider it a genius marketing tactic. For me, a line has been crossed, and I associate his comments with his personality, which often comes through in his music. It's not that I don't still listen to Kanye or check out his new stuff, but when I do, I notice that I no longer appreciate his music the same way I did before he went all loco

that's fair enough. i haven't really listened to his new stuff since donda but for entirely different reasons. honestly i've always thought that kanye is a mentally unstable man who has refused to get the help he needed over the years. his comments on hitler are imo just the latest in a long line of bizarre things kanye has done.
