Kanye West’s interviews with BBC Radio 1’s Zane Lowe have been epic and will probably be replayed for years to come. Now the four-part interview comes to its conclusion. In the first three episodes, the interview that was supposed to be about Kanye’s album Yeezus, constantly became sidetracked by talks of West’s frustration with the fashion industry and how he is the culture. Finally, West and Lowe get to talk about the music. According to complex.com:
“In the fourth and final part of Kanye West’s interview with BBC Radio 1’s Zane Lowe, he talks about his work on Yeezus, dealing with the paparazzi and Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Control’ verse.
“Zane Lowe asks Kanye about his decision to collaborate with more producers on his latest album, which Kanye says was necessary at this point in his career. ‘It’s the only way I can do it at this point. I can’t do it by myself,’ he says. ‘I have no interest in sitting down in the studio by myself and making a track. When I made ‘Overnight Celebrity,’ which is great, I sat down by myself and made it. And there’s people like, ‘Yeah, that’s the answer, make the music by yourself again ‘Ye, we want the old ‘Ye.’ No, I don’t feel like doing that.'”
