Kanye West is the most influential musician of our generation, at least in his humble estimation.

The 31-year-old Grammy Award winner egomantic reminded fans that humility is not strong suit in an interview with the Associated Press on Wednesday.

“I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice,” Kanye insists. “It’s me settling into that position of just really accepting that it’s one thing to say you want to do it and it’s another thing to really end up being like Michael Jordan.”

Would someone please tell him that he is not the voice of anything and the only thing he’s running is his mouth!?

Kanye says he believes Justin Timberlake had a chance to be music’s new MVP, but charges that the former boy bander has not released enough material.

“There were people who had the potential to do it but they went on vacation, so when Justin went on vacation I made albums. And it just came out to be that.”
