is this just a symptom of nigger worship?
It is.
But you have to understand that the black man is the king of "performative" shit.
The black man plays sports well, he dances well, he can jump high, run fast, or whatever.
Now, there are no black quantum physicists, no black man invented a complex machine to reduce labor costs, or designed a complex literal set of laws and codes to live by.
No, abstractions and calculations are beyond the Kanye. The "Kanyeezy, King Ye, gawd of this hip hop shit ya heard my nigga" attitude comes from being ignorant and enjoying simple things.
Think about it this way.
If you play Bach or Rachmaninoff at a 7/11 you'd chase away the rabble.
If you put a big ass subwoofer outside a 7/11 and started bumping some hyper-compressed 808s over a tuned up sample from 1973 suddenly a party of rabble breaks out, twerking and tweaking, huffing gas.
It's all about that moment of energy, its not about abstraction, theory, or complexity. Its about "damn this shit makes me feel like im in a movie, cuh".
If you're a retard, sampling shit and changing pitch sounds like genius.
Now compare how retarded most hip hop is to Kanye's shit.
