Rapper Kanye West believes in world peace, and says he is a great leader.
In an interview with podcaster Joe Rogan, Kanye said: “There couldn`t be a better time to put a visionary in the captain`s chair. I`m not here to down (President Donald) Trump or down (Democratic nominee Joe) Biden, I`m just here to express why God has called me to take this position. I`m a great leader because I listen and I`m empathetic. I do believe in world peace.”
Regarding the music business, he said: “I`m not at war with the music industry. I`m just saying we need to innovate. When I posted my contracts, I had 10 contracts that kept putting me inside a labyrinth and things we don`t need.
“Prince would say we don`t need the distribution part. I`m the kind of person where I`m not trying to eliminate anyone`s job. There`s a way both parties can be happy. These deals can be flipped in a way that they`re just more fair.”
He said his father had told him the music industry was a bad business, and found that perspective to be true, reports variety.com.
“Everyone`s a part of it, everyone`s responsible, everyone`s a part of the problem,” he said.
“The contracts are made to rape the artistes. This is a negative thought I`m putting into the universe – but I thought about Bruce and Brandon Lee. This is Sony and Universal and I`m willing to put the blue paint on my face and go out and do this because it`s the right thing to do.
“Michael Jackson, Prince, all of these things have crossed my mind as I`m saying I need to innovate what these contracts are, it`s not about me getting my masters back, it`s about freedom.
“At this point music loses me money. Of my $5 billion net worth, music is negative $4 million,” he added
He also spoke about his work in religious music.
“I stepped away from my music career for a year to serve God.
“When I made (his Sunday Service sessions), I completely stooped rapping because I didn`t know how to rap before God,” Kanye added.
The interview comes a few days after he released a campaign video for his 2020 presidential run.
