A Quote From Kanye West Give Props To Spike Jonze & Taming His Monster(Ego)

Posted on 5:21 PM by Cyclone

Kanye's has had some ups and downs this year but as you can see he's trying to humbles himself & he mostly thanks the short film that he did with Spike Jonze for letting him look at himself in the mirror.

I DEFINITELY WASN'T EXPECTING ALL THIS LOVE AT THE END OF THE YEAR. LOVE IS HUMBLING. SPIKE IS A GENIUS AND HE BROUGHT THE BEST OUT OF ME. HE CALLED IN A LOT A FAVORS AND WE DID THIS FILM FOR UNDER 50GS. THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY INVOLVED. IBN KILT IT ALSO!!!! SOMETIMES A BIG IDEA CAN TAKE YOU FURTHER THAN A BIG BUDGET. I REMEMBER WHEN HE PITCHED IT TO ME, I WAS LIKE... UUUUUUUM.........WTF!!!!! ... BUT ONLY A COMPLETE IDIOT TURNS DOWN THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE DIRECTED BY SPIKE JONZE. HE'S A REALLY GOOD FRIEND AND CALMING SPIRIT AND THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED MOST IN YOUR LIFE SOMETIMES. HE REMINDS ME OF JON BRION IN A WAY BECAUSE THEY BOTH CAN FIND THE HUMAN QUALITIES IN PEOPLE AND BRING THOSE TO THE FOREFRONT. THEY HAVE SO MUCH GOOD WILL THAT THEY LET ME USE SOME OF THAT TO OPEN DOORS THAT HAVE BEEN CLOSED OFF TO ME. THIS WAS THEEE MOST IN YOUR FACE CONCEPT BUT SPIKE MADE ME LOOK LIKE A HURT CHILD INSTEAD OF AN OUTRAGEOUS ASSHOLE. WHEN EVERYONE GOES BIG, GO SMALL. WHEN EVERYONE GOES CLEAN, GO DIRTY. WHEN EVERYBODY PUTS ON THE CRAZIEST OUTFITS EVER, PUT ON YOUR FAVORITE OLD BAND OF OUTSIDERS DINNER JACKET AND PULL A MONSTER OUT OF YOUR SOUL. I WISH I COULD SAY THAT MONSTER WAS TRULY DEAD BUT I THINK HE'LL BE BACK TO LIFE SITTING ON MY SHOULDER WHEN I GET BACK IN THE STUDIO.
