Kanye West spilled his guts during a recent discussion with Beats 1 host Zane Lowe.
In addition to opening up about his newfound Christianity, he revealed he was exposed to pornography at the ripe age of five. He admitted it led to a porn addiction and it was only until he found God that he was able to rid himself of the compulsion.
“Like for me, Playboy was my gateway into full on pornography addiction,” he said. “My dad had a Playboy left out at age five and it’s affected almost every choice I made for the rest of my life. From age five ’til now, having to kick the habit, and it just presents itself in the open like it’s ok, and I stand up and say, ‘No it’s not ok.'”
He later added, “It’s like with God, I’ve been able to beat things that had a full control of me. You know that Playboy that I found when I was 5-years-old was written all over the moment when I was at the MTV Awards with the Timberlands, the Balmain jeans — before people was rocking Balmain jeans — and the Hennessy bottle. It’s like that was such a script out of a rock star’s life.”
The G.O.O.D. Music boss noted the 2007 death of his mother, Dr. Donda West, sent him over the edge.
“My mom had passed a year before and I said some people drown themselves in drugs,” he said. “And I drowned myself in my addiction.”
‘Ye also revealed he asked people working on (the still unreleased) Jesus Is King to not participate in premarital sex.
“There was times where I was asking people to fast during the album,” he said. “This is gonna be radical what I’m about to say we can look at it in the edit. There were times I was asking people to not have premarital sex while they were working on the album. I know that’s one where The Shade Room will be like, ‘What you mean not have premarital sex!?’
“But seriously, there’s times I went to people that were working on other projects and said, ‘Could you just work and focus on this?’ I mean, it’s known when people pray together, families that pray together stay together. When people pray together and fast together, the power is increased.
Elsewhere in the conversation, Kanye was emphatic about taking his faith to the next level. Check out the clip below.
Lol remember when Ma$e did this then tried to come back on G Unit
His porn addiction stopped because every time he typed, “black dick white chick” a video of ray j piping his wife down would pop up.
Kanye’s porn addiction was cured by him typing “black dick white chick” into the search bar and a video of ray j piping down his wife was top rated…He never went back again
He reminds me of the preacher from walking dead. I hated that fucker too.
Kanye West and all his lunacy, is good for the world. Long may he annoy us and intrigue us. Praise Jesus
porn is destructive, good on you Kanye, many are trapped in that life
Guy is really weird.
This nigga had porn addiction sleeping with Kim every night, man the pussy must have gotten boring lmfao. Praise the lord.
Ever been in a long relationship?
of course they havent. most of these nerds who comment couldnt get within 100 feet of a woman without being called out for being frail beta creeps
Not so much boring as it’s so beat up it looks like a chipped ham sandwich
Can’t wait for Eminem and Dr dre to give their life to Christ too
Porn chemically castrates you and all your male hormones that make you a man and act in a manly way, which is why many men walking around like frail bitches these days because we’ve been purposefully given FREE unlimited porn in our pockets by the elites to program us and enslave our minds and bodies.
Also, porn causes one of the worst types of erectile dysfunction – the mental one, where a healthy male can’t get it up for a real woman because his brain is fucked up and it’s not what his penis is used standing up to
How depraved do you have to be to use God as a marketing tool?
All those millionaire preachers on TV be doing it day in day out flying in private jets..Yezzy just hopping on the bandwagon.
This is some sad shit to see he’s just officially lost him self and turned into a lunatic now..it’s like he can never find the true persona and personality of him self and he’s always searching for it..i don’t think he’s ever really gotten over his mothers death and all this Christian BS is just his crutch to get over how lost his mind really is…#NOTEXCITED4JESUSISKING
Too little, too late. Music fell off a while back
Who helped with Kim’s in porn addiction?
If i was fuckin the most famous porn star my porn addiction would be cured too.
Me too bro lol
Did he call me a God?
This nigga done lost his muthafuckin mind’. You got old, that’s all brotha. Your not the person that made you rich and famous anymore. You never really were. BECAUSE THAT PERSON DOENST REALLY EXIST. You completely marked out for your own gimmick and now that it’s over your lost trying to find yourself because you never took the time to put your ego aside and form the foundation of what it takes to be a self aware emotionally stable adult human being. Your like an infant now, and its fucking pathetc. This finding God shit will last another year or 2 at the most.
Wonder what the next publicity stunt will be after this one wears thin.
Kanye west can’t get ass. Why does he have a porn addiction? This kid is crazy and so is his buddy donald trump.
Found your wife on Pornhub so you should be grateful…
Kanye on that NoFap
all the idiots on here dissing YE think they know wassup..lmfao…you can’y elevate the dumn unwilling peons…either you woke or you a lame…YE knows wassup he been through the girls, fame etc. he understands on a level some of you hating noobs will never get too…that’s okay but you lose k
Sure buddy. Do you even realize that your big life example is strung out on opioids one half of the time and on tranquilizers the other?? You call going from well-respected top producer to marrying a Kardashian and becoming a religious junkie Trump apologist a “level of understanding”?? You can keep that all to yourself, nitwit. I’ll take that loss with pleasure.
GOOF Statement. The dude is with the most sex starving, fake body woman on the planet who would show her breast to gain a front cover. He is the same one who sang not to long ago”im a sick F%^k i like to F^%K” Minions like you justify all of his wrong actions. From a hip hop stand point, hes trash. his flow is Trash, his lyrics are trash. Hi production is subjective, but really not that good. I to this day still havn’t meet with a kanye STan so i can pick their brains as to why they think he is any good.
well, step in the right direction I suppose.
This story can only be birth from an encounter with Christ Jesus. I am optimistic about your new life. God chooses weak things and foolish things to shame the high and mighty. Enjoy the new realm Kanye and grow in grace as u die to yourself daily.
Kanye,
Praise the Lord Hallelujah for what the Lord has done in your life! I love this and your testimony so much! Only God can do miracles as great as he did for you, and The opportunity to share to a dark world from a platform such as yours! That is so awesome!..
I rebuke all the negative comments on here in the name of Jesus! Because they are missing out! And they don’t even know it..yet.
What the the enemy meant for bad, can turn right around be used for goodness! This white Lady that loves the Lord and what he does is definitely in you and your family’s corner.. supporting all the way!??????☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Let the Light shine and light up all the dark in this world!
This will not well for Kanye. You can see it in his body language that he’s hanging on by a very thin thread. The man is not well and his fans don’t even see it. Smh
I dont know what you see but I know what I hear. He is dealing with hidden things like all of us. But if he is free of porn addiction, he is free indeed. The devastation it brings to our genuine longing for true relationship has left even innocent children hanging by a thread.
