Kanye West Says He’s ‘The No. 1 Rockstar’


Rapper Kanye West has never been shy about voicing his opinion. Throughout his entire career Kanye has made large proclamations about himself and other people, and his latest interview seems to be more of the same.

Kanye sat down with BBC Radio 1‘s Zane Lowe for one of his infamously intimate interviews. The interview will not air until Monday, but in a preview it is easy to see that this is going to another memorable Kanye piece.

According to billboard.com:

“In a tease for next week’s Kanye West BBC Radio 1 interview with Zane Lowe, a YouTube video has cherry-picked a few new classic lines to add to the outspoken hip-hop star’s phrase book.

“‘We the real rock stars and I’m the biggest of all of them,'” he tells Lowe. ‘I’m the No. 1 rock star on the planet.’ Without context, one might guess he’s talking about hip-hop’s dominance in pop culture — and arena tours, one of which West will be heading on in October.”

The Kanye and Zane Lowe’s interview will be aired in four parts on Youtube starting on Monday. For now, check out the preview above.
