In a recent interview, Kanye West spoke about how he would rather have "less fans". He also spoke on his wanting to pose nude. The outspoken rapper/singer said in a magazine interview,

"I made a decision. I wanna make popular music, but I want less fans," he told writer Sean Fennessey when asked if he was comfortable with fame. "I want the freedom of having less fans. It's like the freedom of having less money. If you have less money, you have less responsibility. It's like Björk. If she wanted to pose naked, you'd be like, 'Oh, that's Björk.' But if I wanted to pose naked, people would draw all type of things into it. I definitely feel like, in the next however many years, if I work out for two months, that I'll pose naked. I break every rule and mentality of hip-hop, of black culture, of American culture."

West continued on that by saying "less fans", he meant having a core of 20,000 devotees who understand him, rather than large amount like 100,000 "fly-by-night" followers who only feel him cause he's hot right now.

So how does Kanye feel about other music stars who are in the spotlight as well? He said,"I believe Beyoncé is the greatest performer of our generation....I believe I am the greatest entertainer of this generation. I go neck-and-neck on Jay-Z and [Lil] Wayne as far as who's the best lyricist. Jay-Z has longevity."
