So, Kanye’s album finally dropped, and in a very non-Kanye fashion, the album seems to be about not Yeezus himself, but some guy named Pablo. Many have theorized who it could be about and only on The Rib will you find an exclusive on the four most popular theories.
Pablo Picasso – There’s a theory that the album is referencing the famous painter. Think about it: Kanye, Picasso. Two similarly genius artistes. “FML (ft. The Weekend)” and “Fade (ft. Ty Dolla $ign and Post Malone)” are the strongest indicators that this album is actually about the 20th century man.
Pablo Neruda – Neruda is one of the most famous poets in history. Like Kanye, he just has a way with words. “Feedback” is probably about him because he absolutely hated being edited.
Pablo Escobar – “Real Friends (ft. Ty Dolla $ign)” is definitely about this Colombian drug lord. The King of Cocaine had U.S. Defense homies that helped him out by looking the other way during the pinnacle of his reign.
Pablo That Guy I Had A Crush On – So this guy (that I had a crush on once) actually thought he was a rapper and worshipped Kanye. “Freestyle 4” and “I Love Kanye” are 100% written by him. There’s a reason we’re not dating.
Which/One do you think is true?
