Joe Rogan praises Kanye West

Joe Rogan and Tim Dillon discuss Ye's ‘genius,’ his musical impact, and the complexities of his personality.

In a recent episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," Joe Rogan and guest Tim Dillon discussed the complexities of Kanye West's personality and artistry. 

Rogan highlighted the necessity of letting Ye speak freely, acknowledging that the artist has a lot to say. "That madness inside of him is why his songs are bangers," Rogan remarked, praising Ye’s new album as "amazing" and noting its frequent play in his green room and Spotify playlists.

Dillon echoed Rogan's sentiments, calling Ye a “genius” and pointing out that extraordinary talent often comes with significant downsides. "He's a genius, and what you have to realize with people that are incredibly gifted is a lot of that comes with some real downsides," Dillon said. He emphasized the importance of appreciating Kanye's contributions to music, even if it means tolerating the occasional outburst. "Let him have a tirade every now and then," Dillon suggested.
