Wow, we just got dumber!

Kanye West granted Vanity Fair an interview after his second Yeezy collection showing at New York Fashion Week, and we're just now getting treated to some of the gems from his sit-down. Among other things, the rapper muses about his love of sweatshirts, his political aspirations, and his desire to live up to his parents' accomplishments.

Here are our favorite tidbits from Yeezus:

On sweatshirts:
    "I was so happy to just show so many sweatshirts. It’s as simple as that. I think sweatshirts are the way of the future. Sweatshirts are f**king important."

On reportedly arranging his runway models according to race:
    "It was only colours of human beings and the way these palettes of people work together and really just stressing the importance of colour, the importance of that to our sanity, these Zen, monochrome palettes. I want it to become more of a moving painting than a political statement or a fashion statement. This is strictly … not strictly, you can take it how you want; obviously I’m a very socially charged human being. But at the end of the day, I’m just simply an artist trying to express myself, trying to finish my sentences just like my daughter can."

On people embracing him running for President in 2020:
    "And then as soon as I said that, it was like, ‘Wait a second, we would be really into that, because actually if you think about it, he’s extremely thoughtful. Every time he’s gotten in trouble, he was really jumping in front of a bullet for someone else. He’s probably the most honest celebrity that we have.'"

On living up to his parents' accomplishments:
    "I sit in clubs and I’m like, ‘Wow, I’ve got five years before I go and run for office and I’ve got a lot of research to do, I’ve got a lot of growing up to do.' My dad has two master’s degrees. My mom has a Ph.D. Rap is great. It’s fun. It’s fun to be a rock star, and I’ll never not be one I guess, but there’ll be a point where I become my mother’s child.”

We can just picture Kim Kardashian sitting there nodding in agreement with everything he says!
