Let's face it, Kanye West has come out with some of the best quotes in music. Not necessarily out of wit, but out of a sheer combination of confidence, extreme self belief and a unique vision. Just the very phrase "My Truman show boat has hit the painting" contains so much imagery and meaning that it's begging to be psychoanalysed.
With West's new album seemingly on the verge of being stealth released (aka: doing a Beyoncé), we can expect a whole heap of brilliant heap of briliant soundbites in the near future. For now here are the best, craziest, most perplexing quotes and lyrics to date, from arguably the biggest artist in rap.
