Kanye West is in awe of rap mogul Jay Z’s ability to move like molten lava through the complex landscape of the corporate world. A former crack dealer who sold poison to his own people, Jay Z relies on his street skills to help him broker million-dollar business deals.
Kanye, who doesn’t have the charm or finesse to get in good with corporate wheelers and dealers, told San Francisco’s 106KMEL he wants to learn from Jay Z.
“One of the reasons that I did Watch The Throne with Jay wasn’t just to do a dope album, which we did, it was because Jay Z has the best social skills of anyone that I know,” Ye said. “Of anyone that I knew at that time. And I wanted to learn from him…Just to knock the edge off and learn from Jay.”
Kanye also expressed his feelings for socialite and baby mama, Kim Kardashian, hours before he proposed to her in San Francisco.
“I have never loved, uh, any girl, uh, other than my mother, as much as I love my girlfriend,” Kanye told KMEL’s Sana.
Kanye struggled mightily to put his befuddled thoughts into words. “And I’m so happy to, uh, to to to to be with her, uh, for us to… live this life together, uh, and, and with our relationship with God to be able to live, you know, forever in Heaven.”
He doesn’t sound very convincing.
