Much LOL: "Everything I'm not made me everything I am.' In my humble opinion, that's a prophetic statement. Gandhi would have said something like that." "My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live." "Don't ask me what I think the best song of last year was, because my opinion is the same as most of America's. It was 'Gold Digger.'" Related: I wrote about impostor syndrome, inspired by Kanye's confident interview with Zane Lowe. Love him or hate him, the man is inspiring.

Thanks for the kanye-fidence boost, @EAWharton :)

I just remembered, I wrote a two part, collaborative post of entrepreneurial advice in rap music. Here's part 1 and part 2 if you're interested! My favorite contributed by @carlobff via Notorious B.I.G.'s Ten Crack Commandments: Number 4: I know you heard this before ‘Never get high on your own supply’ Translation: A reminder to beware of confirmation bias. Remain objective.

Thanks @rrhoover. I couldn't find it on the Kanye-Fidence but my fave is "Yea I'm the shit / Up in this bitch." Like Dylan to the Baby Boomers, it's such a poignant reflection of a generation's need to be part of a universe. :) Kind of related note, I wish there were a http://whatrhymeswithhug.me/ for at least one of Yeezy's songs.

@eriktorenberg hilarious. Also Aziz Ansari's interactions with Kanye have also been fantastic. "These beats are dope" I'm on Amtrak so I can't test the link, but this looks like it might work: http://runnj.tv/2010/01/20/night...

@rrhoover There's also Ben Horowitz's blog :)
