‘I Am A God’: Kanye West Song Name Mistaken For Album Title

The rumor mill was a buzz today spouting rapper Kanye Westwas working on an album titled “I Am God.” I was just shocked an appalled to find out he wan’t God. [Shruggs]

I dunno maybe I am the only one to remember a song that happened in the not so distant past when West released the song about Jesus walking. He also recreated the prophet’s crucifixion on a 2006 cover of Rolling Stone…go figure. This was a pretty good publicity stunt, I might add.

Let’s not forget the rappers habit of being a little over the top and this new track…well…. definitely seemed on point, however, according to the Huffington Post, the title is actually for an upcoming single and the album itself had yet to be named. The track will be called “I Am A God” [Hmmm....title of album, song..same difference...shrugs....anyways...]

Kanye’s camp has went on record to say:

“We would never be so presumptuous or sacrilegious to call ourselves the supreme being,” the source said. While everyone will have to wait for the actual song to parse the specifics of the song’s message, the source hinted that the idea was generally that all people are manifestations of a higher power.

And according to the Huffington Post  entertainment blog the title is also a reference to Psalm 82, which includes the following:

I said, “You are gods,
And all of you are children of the Most High.
But you shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.”

This is a great publicity stunt, I might add. Oh and again….we can’t forget the eccentric rapper has rapped about Jesus walking and also recreated the prophet’s crucifixion on a 2006 cover of Rolling Stone…go figure.
