  15. ^ He told Bloginity: "I just feel like he's super talented and that joint was, I'm sure he's got even better than that. I like 'Power' a lot, but I'm sure he's even better than that. Kanye West's my favourite rapper. And even though ‘Power’ wasn't Kanye's best effort, at the end of the day, I'm a huge Kanye West fan."
