‘All of that arrogance, and confidence and cockiness that y’all seen me use before god is now using for him because every time I stand up I feel that I’m standing up and drawing a line in the sand and saying I’m here in service to god and no weapons armed against me shall prosper.’
Kanye continued: ‘It’s like the devil stole all the good producers, all the good musicians, all the good artists, all the good designers, all the good business people, and said, “You gotta come over and work for me.”
‘And now the trend, the shift, is going to change. Jesus has won the victory. Now the greatest artist God ever created is now working for him.’
