I mean, let’s face it, ‘Kanye West is Not Picasso’ is probably the most important poem of the last decade or so.

A Cohen kōan of sorts. “Bring me Ye’s original face”, or something.
Joking aside, I think it’s about creativity and conceit, and human drive to create. It was ridiculous of KW to compare himself to Picasso - mock worthy (?) - what do Picasso & KW have in common? What is it that separates human ingenuity from bullshit, heartless nonsense?
in a sense it’s just a poem slamming KW, but it’s more than that, I think. It has a sincerity: You can’t separate the brilliance of human creativity, from ‘bullshit culture’. We go from one sub-set of bullshit to another; it’s a ‘bogus shift’ because the drive is continuous.pic.twitter.com/xLR42sAGqV
PS: it's the same human creativity - that which creates what we think of the genius of Picasso/Tesla - which drives human delusion and self-congratulatory behaviour, such as KW pushing someone off stage, or humanity ignoring that fact that our bullshit is going to end humanity
