John Legend recently discussed Kanye West's troubling transformation in an interview, recalling how the rapper was once optimistic and creatively gifted. Legend pointed out that West's descent appears to have started after the death of his mother, Donda West. He described his own experiences working alongside West during his rise as an artist, noting that he never anticipated West's current controversies surrounding antisemitism and anti-blackness. Legend finds it sad and shocking to witness West's evolution into a figure marked by such divisive views.
Kanye was passionate and creative, had big dreams for himself and others. It's sad to see where he is now, showing a devolution.
After his mother died in 2007, there was definitely a difference in Kanye. His descent started then and seems to have accelerated recently.
