I listened to it. There's not many people on earth who could do something like that. It's impressive, like some guy dividing a twenty digit number by a five digit number and carrying out the dividend to five decimal places. It's not really poetry but it's definitely something. It takes real talent to convince people that that is a talent.
You've got to be a fan to appreciate that, because it sounded like five minutes of stringing together words and names that kind of, sort of rhyme, without any rhythm or musicality at all. Sounds something like a homeless mental case talking to himself. Lame beat, can't dance to it...

It's a talent, but like he said, it was off the cuff, that makes it impressive.
Well, this is Rolling Stone, so I'm not quite believing it happened the way they say, or perhaps ever.
Another genius who is most like himself.
