Kanye Talks 'Pursuit Of Awesomeness' In Backstage Video
Would part of the concert be streamed in real time? How much of Jay and 'Ye would we actually see? There were quite a few questions.
Now, almost two months later, VoyR drops its first behind-the-scenes video. Kanye narrates the clip, which was recorded at one of the Throne's November shows at Madison Square Garden in New York. "I always joked that I was like — OK, I'm doing music, but there is a bigger plan for me at a certain point. I wasn't given this power for no reason and now it's starting to open up," 'Ye says at the start.
Yeezy continues to wax poetic about his mission in life, concluding that his goal is to inspire future world leaders who will go on to pay homage at the rapper's funeral when he dies. All the while, West's voice-over is coupled with concert footage of him emerging onto the MSG stage atop a four-sided video cube. "I'm on a pursuit of awesomeness," West continues. "Excellence is the bare minimum."
