	https://youtu.be/zrpMihSD3uI?feature=shared&t=2230 CyHi: "[He has] that type of tediousness ... that type of research. ... Even when he’s doing beats, he’s going through every sample. Every album that came out from ’91 to like ’99, he redid every beat on every Hip Hop album ever. He would get the whole Nas album and do every Nas song one through sixteen — every beat to a T. Nas album, Biggie album, DMX album. Everybody who came out before him. He redid their album just to teach himself how to make beats so it's like if he gon’ be that studious with beats, he’s going to be that way with everything." L.A. Reid (on Kanye West): "He’s not the egomaniacal guy that people think he is. I think he’s meticulous, he’s detailed, he works really hard, he wants to be great and he really works at it. But in private, he wants to know what you think." Pusha T: "He’s the most meticulous individual ever." The accounts from CyHi, L.A. Reid, and Pusha T point to someone who detailed, and thorough suggest a habitual preference for a more meticulous process (in other words unlikely Si inferior). CyHi's story of West redoing entire hip-hop albums beat-for-beat to teach himself production is a key example. This kind of repetition and dedication to perfecting a craft through established methods doesn't align with the typical ENFP approach of quickly moving on after exhausting the novelty of a new idea. It points more towards a diligent, detail-oriented nature. Similarly, L.A. Reid's comment about West's meticulousness and hard work, combined with Pusha T's simple statement that he is the "most meticulous individual ever," reinforces this view. These descriptions consistently highlight a level of detail-oriented discipline that is more characteristic of other personality types. He is a narcissistic ISFJ that was confused as an NFP because of stereotypes.

In Socionics Kanye is definitely Si blind. He is never on chill, he does not pay any attention to anything day-to-day or down to earth. He is consistently restlessly chasing after an ideal vision. He constantly chooses Se over Si always deferring to making an impact over keeping the peace or assimilating.

I think Kanye’s ego lies in Ne and he wields Fi. He breathes creativity and his authenticity is the support. Whereas someone like Kid Cudi, breathes authenticity and uses creativity as support. Also I believe Kanye is ultimately a 4w3 but I could totally understand a 3w4 typing, I don’t think it’s that obvious that he’s not a 3 he has a extremely strong wing in my opinion. 471 also sounds right as a tritype.
