I love kanye:
(Chorus)
I miss the old Kanye, straight from the 'Go Kanye
Chop up the soul Kanye, set on his goals Kanye
I hate the new Kanye, the bad mood Kanye
The always rude Kanye, spaz in the news Kanye
I miss the sweet Kanye, chop up the beats Kanye
I gotta to say at that time I'd like to meet Kanye
See I invented Kanye, it wasn't any Kanyes
And now I look and look around and there's so many Kanyes
I used to love Kanye, I used to love Kanye
I even had the pink polo, I thought I was Kanye
What if Kanye made a song about Kanye
Called "I Miss The Old Kanye, " man that would be so Kanye
That's all it was Kanye, we still love Kanye
And I love you like Kanye loves Kanye
*laugs*
What Does I Love Kanye Mean?
The track "I Love Kanye" from TLOP signifies how Kanye's fans see him. Longing for his soulful sampling and old attitudes, which Kanye does not plan on returning to (any time soon.)
This song stands out from the rest because it contains a higher concentration of meta-vibes than any of his others.
I love you like Kanye Loves Kanye is such a solid bar at its core.
People who liked Kanye back in his nicer days aren't interested in engaging with him any longer because of his habit of being disrespectful and assaulting the media...
So those who say "I used to love Kanye" get extra love on this track.
It's basically a shout-out track for all of Ye's old fans.
Kanye repeats the same complaints issued against him as before, but he delivers them in a way that makes them appear childish and trivial.
Many of Ye's fans are disappointed with his new artistic direction and hope he will go back to promoting the knowledge he did on The College Dropout...
But hey "I love the new Kanye" is just as true of a line.
Kanye is Kanye - hate it or love it.
I Love Kanye: first appearance:
Before the release of TLOP, "I Love Kanye" was parodied on Saturday Night Live.
In this episode, the host Kyle Mooney of SNL challenges Ye to a freestyle battle to promote the album.
See for yourself in the video down below! 👇
This first premiere of I Love Kanye was monumental, because it shows Kanye in a different light.
During his TLOP press run, he was very abrasive and defensive...
This time he got to be a little more intimate and partner with a large media company (SNL.)
I think it's something we can cherish, and one of the reasons why I love Kanye.
Who is the "old" Kanye?
In the song "I Love Kanye: who exactly is the OLD Kanye in question?
For that, we'll have to look back at Kanye's history a tad.
Kanye came into the music scene rocking a fresh, authentic sound; sped-up soul albums that were described as “chipmunk soul.”
Definitely an odd way to describe somebody... But it definitely did fit him!
Post-808’s-era Kanye has chosen a different approach, with darker, electronic-inspired tracks.
That said, people consider pre-2016 Kanye part of the "old" Kanye.
I think it's semi-stupid because nothing changed much.
The people who think that the adjustments Kanye has made aren't beneficial changes are ridiculed by Kanye.
His critical standing hasn't dropped, even if his musical abilities have improved.
He’ll be totally fine if you don’t like the new guy.
The origins of the "Kanye loves Kanye" meme
The "Kanye Loves Kanye" meme came as a result of Kanye's egotistical tweets and hilarious self-adoration. Over time Kanye became the symbol of self-confidence, and thus the "Kanye Loves Kanye" meme was born.
Using the track to speak in the third person about himself, the song is a satirical spin on the "Kanye Loves Kanye" meme.
The I Love Kanye track works so well in different formats - I think that's why it rose to such popularity.
It's SO funny to me that Kanye can be so up his own butt while simultaneously being able to give an honest assessment of his own abilities.
Is that the charisma needed to be a billionaire Christian Grammy-winning artist?
Kanye also ponders what it would be like to go back in time and chat with his prior self.
While he doesn't give a hoot about what his detractors think, he is curious to know what young Kanye would make of his current outlook on life and art.
