TB to that time when after an hour sitting next to him, finally: “We are Chicagoans and love you, and would love you even more for a pic!” Kanye: “No way! Love Chicago- lets do this! But you can’t smile- I don’t do smiles” I tried, but too hard not to, talking with a guy who turned out to be super down to earth– but only smiles off camera :) (setting aside his political commentary) Our dear creative friend @silashelm just sent us this stream-of-kayne-consciousness-advice:’sometimes you have to get rid of everything’ + your ideas are your strongest form of currency’. . Thanks for the morning inspiration
