"You don’t have to be racist anymore. It’s called self-hate. It works on itself. It’s like real estate of racism. Where, just like that, when someone comes up and says something like ‘I am a God’, everybody says ‘Who does he think he is?’ I just told you who I thought I was: A GOD. I just told you. That’s who I think I am. Would it have been better if I had a song that said ‘I am a nigga’? Or if I had a song that said ‘I’m a gangsta’? Or if I had a song that said ‘I am a pimp’? All those colors and patinas fit better on a person like me right? But to say you are a God, especially when you got shipped over to the country that you’re in, and your last name is a slave owner’s - How could you say that? How could you have that mentality?" - Kanye West in part 2 of his interview with Zane Lowe.
