Kanye West Tells Joe Rogan When He Decided To Run For President

Kanye West and Joe Rogan have been teasing a sit-down interview for a while now, and on Friday, it finally happened as these two came together for a three-hour podcast that is full of content. At the beginning of the interview, Kanye began to speak about his bid for the Presidency and why he ultimately came to the conclusion that he needed to run for President of the United States.
As Kanye notes in the clips below, he has been planning his Presidential bid for quite some time now and that he always knew he was destined to lead the country. During this conversation, Rogan interjected a few times to keep Kanye on track and explain exactly what he would do differently as Commander In Chief.

“It was something God put on my heart back in 2015. A few days before the MTV awards, it just hit me in the shower,” Kanye said. “And when I first thought of it I just started like laughing to myself and all this joy came over my body. Just through my soul and I just felt that energy I felt that spirit.” West then went on to talk about how he ended up voicing his intentions to run for President during the MTV Awards. and subsequent backlash that soon followed.
“I had different friends that were some people in the music industry, some people tech elites and they would really take it as a joke,” West divulged. “They’re telling me all these reasons why I couldn’t run for President. […] One of my responses to one of the naysayers was ‘well I’ll definitely be a billionaire by that time’ and not that that’s a reason why someone should become President but it’s to say at that time I was around $50 million dollars in debt and I knew I would have the confidence to be able to turn that around.”
West continued to talk about his doubters before revealing that some people in his circle have claimed that he should run to be the Governor of California, which is an idea Rogan was very much on board with. Kanye then said that he ultimately chose to run for President as he “believes [his] calling is to be the leader of the Free World.” It was here where West went on to say that he would be a great leader because he is someone who listens, while also being empathetic. West even said he was a visionary and that his ideas would be anything unlike the world has ever seen.
Kanye has spoken like this throughout his career as a musician, and it’s no surprise he would feel the exact same way when it comes to his politics. There were plenty more gems from this interview, so keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring those to you.

Mister Motivation is making waves with his new single “For The Love of Women”

The new single from Mister Motivation, ”For The Love of Women”, isn’t just a song; it’s an anthem that combines lyrical, soulful hip-hop with heartfelt, raw content! This newest release puts the woman at the center, an ode to her strength, grace, and contribution to the world. But it’s also a call to action, challenging listeners to think about how we all can show up better in relationships and society.
You can hear it from the first beat, ”For the Love of Women” is a rollercoaster of rhythm and meaning. Mister Motivation sings the chorus with his smooth and convincing vocals, while his verses touch on the relevancy of love, give-and-take, and spiritual synergy in relationships. A lot of thought and love went into making this track as a tribute to the women we love and support daily. ”For the Love of Women” message is clear: love is not only fulfilled love but respectful; it goes beyond, it is about equality and the two of us growing together. ”For The Love of Women” seamless blend of music fulfilling its purpose. The song does not simply bemoan women generally but encourages men and women to think about the way they conduct themselves in relationships and how they can present a specific, transforming love. It’s a soulful nudge that in any relationship, the giving and receiving of love should be balanced and mutual.
Besides packing a punch wherever it’s played, the track also promotes something near Mister Motivation’s heart. ”For the Love of Women” is in partnership with F.L.O.W. (For the Love of Women), a non-profit organization committed to bringing awareness to period poverty.

Imaginary Voices of Alex Day delivers a haunting protest anthem ‘’The Highway’’

Imaginary Voices of Alex Day’s newest release, “The Highway,” is a gut punch. It is raw, self-reflective, and unapologetically human in a world of fabricated creators. Rage-fueled and visceral, Day pours all its disillusionment and fear into the track (recorded on election night in the U.S.), which doubles as personal catharsis and political protest. The feelings are not abstruse; they’re strewn across practically every lyric and layered beat.
The timing of “The Highway,” creation is no accident, it was penned when a nation made the choice, once more, to crown a leader the songwriter couldn’t bear. The result? A sonic snapshot of anxiety, resistance, and that yearning desire to bolt. But this is not just another protest song. What is particularly provocative about “The Highway” is who’s playing it. Or, more accurately, what? Imaginary Voices of Alex Day, the band that created the track, is entirely AI-powered, and that might be unsettling for some people, and that’s fine. Day welcomes it.
“The Highway” juxtaposes haunting synths with echoing guitar licks and a pulse that pounds like a racing heart. The vocals born of code have a surprising level of pathos as if the machines have learned to mourn. Lyrically, the song strays back and forth between hopelessness and resolve, teetering between yearning to flee and the necessity of taking a stand. This is not just a single; it’s a statement. It raises an eerie question: Can you protest if your sound is a meld of man and machine? And more to the point, does that mean your cry for help is any less valid?
“The Highway” isn’t for everyone. But for the invested, who continue to come to terms with the soul-splitting chaos of modern politics and the increasing prevalence of AI in art, it’s a fascinating, emotional listen. Alex Day doesn’t provide simple solutions, though he’s certainly asking the right questions.
