A noticeable change has come over rapper Kanye West. From hand delivering Yeezy 750 Boosts to fans to even being seen smiling more freely, the artist is beginning to give off a warmer air about himself.  While West is known for his openness, he really allowed his guard to come down in a recent interview with BBC Radio 1 Host Zane Lowe. Upon speaking on a close mentor and friend who recently passed, British Professor Louise Wilson, West surprised everyone, including himself, when he broke down in tears, causing the artist to step out to regroup. Upon returning, West went on to discuss such topics as his past frustrations with expressing himself, exclusivity being the new N-word, and his fears of going crazy.
