Jump on in to episode eighteen of the Doneson podcast as we discuss one of the most well-known rappers, recorders, producers and fashion designer moguls of our time -Mr. Kanye West. With a net worth of 250 million and 21 Grammy awards, success has definitely been on his side. However, the majority of his fortune comes from his 2016 partnership between his brand Yeezy and with Adidas. Perhaps his choices and success are because he is a great leader or maybe they just are a result of a sensory condition that he was diagnosed called synesthesia-a condition where the senses mix signals in the brain and produce things such as colors when sound is heard. But despite these successes, there is also the other side of the coin. Kanye is a college dropout and has a history of being outspoken in a way that does not endear him to the public. He infamously interrupted and insulted Taylor Swift at the VMA awards and called out George Bush for "not caring about black people" during Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. His public behaviour is often erratic and void of reason. Are these the signs of a true leader?
