Seth Rogen has always been a Kanye West fan, and that’s not changing anytime soon.
Speaking with Pharrell Williams on the OTHERtone podcast, the actor opened up about his thoughts on West—who now apparently is going by just Ye—and his latest album.
“I did love Kanye’s new album,” Rogen told hosts Scott Vener, Pharrell, and Fam-Lay. “To me, Kanye is just such a unique artist and to me, I think what he does is really interesting. I think the fact that it’s such a distinct sound, it’s so… You can just turn on any song for half a second and kind of know it’s a Kanye song. I think it’s auteur-ish as I think a lot of performers are, and that’s just something I think is really interesting, that he can carve out a sound that is so unique.”
Rogen—who Yeezy once rapped the entirety of his 2013 effort Yeezus in a limo to—further explained that he’s fascinated by how Ye keeps winning him over, and that he’s interested in how the rapper makes him feel about himself.
