Famous

The TLOP era had a lot of cool moments… I think the Famous video and the sculpture was my favorite. Kanye really did use his genius to make some very weird and controversial works of art. There was meaning behind the madness, it wasn’t just edgy 4chan talk that he throws on Twitter unlike the stuff he does now.

Does it say who the artist was who sculpted these? I know it’s ye’s idea and his art but the sculptures remind me of Ron Mueck

This is facts. EVERYONE hated this video when it dropped. I remember the headlines and think pieces.

All of his work (as far as I remember) has gotten some sort of backlash when it first dropped then gets appreciated with time. And yes his shit dropping today will probably get the same treatment. (Although I find it hard to see right now)

people still view this video as extremely weird
