What is the true story of Kanye West?
Kanye West’s success and happiness story has shown its chiaroscuro. The rapper himself had already publicly exposed that he suffers from episodes of bipolar disorder. Although never before had the public perceived such a severe crisis. But what are the origins of Kanye West?
A happy child in a middle class family
Kanye West is not a rapper born in a disadvantaged environment. He is not a boy who has hardened himself on the streets like, for example, Jay-Z, his main artistic rival. He was born in Atlanta in 1977 but immediately moved to Chicago. His father was an award-winning press photographer and his mother a university professor.

A rapper with studies
Kanye West studied Fine Arts in Chicago. To his innate talent he added a university education. But he was always clear that his thing was music. He started as a producer, worked on the legendary Roc-A-Fella Records label. There he contributed to make great successes for Janet Jackson, Alicia Keys or Jay-Z. Kanye West released their first album in 2004. From there, success came very easily.
Kanye West’s accident
Everything could be truncated when in 2002, as Kanye West was preparing to go from producer to artist with his own songs, he had a traffic accident. He fell asleep at the wheel when he returned from the studio and severely fractured his jaw. He was admitted to the hospital and had to undergo reconstructive surgery.
Fame and megalomania
But Kanye West’s race to stardom was dazzling, and this added to his megalomania. Kanye West exhibits a love for himself that is sometimes almost humorous. He rubs shoulders with celebrities (such as the late Karl Lagerfeld -in the image-) and has gone so far as to say: “If the Bible were written today, I would be in it.”
Kanye West Church
Kanye West has once declared himself a “born again Christian,” someone who returned to religion after a sinful drift. And he has created something similar to his own Church, with Sunday service and the role of the rapper.
It is common for Kanye West’s statements to be controversial. Especially in recent times: in an interview with Forbes, he even said that the Covid-19 (which he suffered) is “the mark of the beast” and that the vaccine can be used to install microchips.
Kanye West and politics
Kanye West surprised after the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States. Before he settled in the White House, he went to the Trump Tower in New York to meet with the president and expressed his sympathy for a character who has very little support among the African American community.
Trump and West
Already during the election campaign, Trump showed worrying links with far-right supremacist groups. Hence, many of the African American public figures found it incredible that Kanye West lent his support to such a character.
Kanye West, tenant of the White House?
Kanye West had previously shown his willingness to compete for the US presidency. And no one has ever taken it seriously. Their proposals are usually crazy. For example, giving a million dollars to every woman who has a son or daughter.
Contradictory ideology
Kanye West has a chaotic political discourse: the same is against gun control that lashes out against key figures of African-American activism. And at his Charleston rally he ended up sobbing on several occasions. His fans continue to adore him but alarms have sounded around him.
Kanye West’s future
Beyond politics, Kanye West has a relevant musical career. Although the critics think that his latest works are not up to the task. He also continues with his role as a clothing designer. All this, however, is overshadowed when the anxiety appears on the scene. Kanye West confessed in an interview to David Letterman that his bipolar disorder forced him to take medication. And also how difficult it was for an artist to live with that medication. The future will tell whether Kanye West is the winner again, or his true story is that of a tormented being.
