But a lot of his verses I thought were bare. Like, just basic, by the book gospel lines. You know, hold hands and pray, bend your knee to him, so on and so forth...

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Yeah they were pretty basic

 

[Hoss]

Meh. Nothing wrong with gospel or whatever, but I just think it was too plain. Not enough personal lyrics which is a big reason I listen to Kanye.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

I think Follow God might be the most personal song he might have since Hey Mama...

 

[Kiffy Lube]

So it can counteract itself

 

[Hoss]

That's tough. I feel like Only One, for one, would outdo it. But the song, with the music video and the story behind it, definitely make it personal.

 

[Hoss]

I do really like seeing Kanye seemingly at peace. Dude's obviously been through a lot and isn't exactly "well adjusted". So whatever it takes for him to be mentally healthy, I'm down for it. I'll always have his old stuff if I don't like his new stuff.

 

[Hoss]

Which I do... just not quite as much as his old stuff.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Kanye just has such a unique RAP career

 

[Hoss]

Truly one of a kind.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Did he plan Jesus Walks to Follow God?

 

[Hoss]

I think it'd be great if he did but at the same time he's so scatterbrained, I would find that pretty unlikely lol

 

[Kiffy Lube]

I do kind of think him bein' so much behind God right now is gonna lead into him tryin' to be the first Republican black President, those songs bein' linked is kind of a stretch

 

[Hoss]

One of my Twitter mutuals brought up that it would be really fucking dope if Kanye's final song on his final album ends with a skit of that faculty member from Late Registration talking and somehow it brings his whole discography full circle

So many Republicans won't vote for a black man no matter what
