Kanye West recently went on a rant concerning Detroit emcee, Eminem. but this time, the outspoken Yeezus rapper didn't have anything negative to say - wow!

In a recent interview with Complex magazine, West compares himself to the infamous "Rap God" (at least in regards to a tough industry breakthrough):

"I feel like I'm Eminem, you know? You don't think 'white rapper.' You just think Eminem. You don't think celebrity designer, straight designer, black designer, all these types of things that kind of held me back conceptually in being accepted as a designer. You just think of those words...I'm just happy that I was able to apply the mentality and passion that brought the College Dropout into existence. Now, I may finally have enough of a point of view and understanding to apply and create. Enough of a vision to make. There's so many far more talented designers but I just have a perspective and a heart. And I'm gonna give all the heart and perspective that I can."

Interesting... is it fair for the "Gold Digger" superstar to his contrast his New York Fashion Week success with Slim Shady's struggle as a white rapper?

Beyonce's "hypeman" also talks about his growing respect towards the Alpha Female:

"For two years, I lived with all alpha females and a daughter," he explained. "So I had to learn to really do what my mother taught me, and become the man she always knew I could be, and bow as a creative... You know those photos that you see with me getting on my knees in front of the paparazzi to fix Kim's pant leg? That's what I want to do for the world. I want to get on my knees and fix everyone's pant leg, if they'll have me."

So... how about an epic collaboration with "The Monster" rapper? Maybe not, but fans can still expect some awesome new tunes from the "Stronger" singer soon. Or in Yeezy's own words, get ready for "more dope sh*t."
