Can Kanye Change? | BULLY by Ye Analysis (w/ Racquel Callahan)
Saison 8 · Épisode 21
jeudi 10 septembre 2026 • Durée 02:01:16
This week on "I've Been Meaning To Listen To That", former Kanye West stans analyze BULLY by Ye, and boy oh boy our feelings are complicated! We dive deep into the impact of Ye's unforgivable antisemitic & anti-black outbursts, how our stanhood has transitioned into a more measured fandom, the trajectory of Ye's career and his relationship to culture/capital, how BULLY functions as a multilayered Simulacrum of a Kanye that no longer exists, whether or not Ye has the best hip-hop discography of all time (and if his actions over the last decade disqualify him), what it would take for him to earn redemption in the public eye, what Kanye West's legacy should be in a perfect world, and more!
