Kanye West


Kanye West is notorious for being mean to Taylor Swift that one time, but he is very religious and is extremely open about his beliefs.  One of his greatest religious songs is “Jesus walks”.  With a powerful beat and incredible lyrics it’s one of my favorites.  Kanye is very interesting, he is egotistic and openly admits it all the time but he has given hip-hop a religious revitalization.  In the 90’s 2Pac gave Hip-hop some of it’s first religious ideas and it was lost a little in the early 2000’s in my opinion but with Kanye’s work with Jay-z was a really big step for him and with his emergence into rap religion began to become a norm now Kanye still uses a lot of religion in his newer albums Dark Twisted Fantasy and Watch the Throne.
