Spotlight On: Kanye West Records & Bands

In which our heroes talk s*** about Kanye West.After listening to Watch the Throne for the first time (for last weeks podcast), I (Rob) took a tumble down a Kanye rabbit hole. Over one weekend I listened to "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy", "Yeezus" "Life of Pablo" "Ye" and "Jesus is King". After hearing a decades worth of material over a few days I summoned Sam for an EMERGENCY PODCAST!!!So armed with a few pages of notes and some sizzling hot takes I lay down some theories for confirmation/ridicule. Join us as we talk about the rapper as an artist, use of sexual imagery as metaphor, reacting to the whirlwind of celebrity, creating while managing bi-polar disorder, whether an artists background dictates their medium and other such arty bulls***. Personally speaking this is our best episode yet, a spontaneous discussion about a truly important and divisive artist. Find us everywhere else here
