When Kanye West pledged his comeback, the shared emotions were quite overriding. Of course, Ye’s backing came in a lump sum, but there was also a flare of chaos and criticisms that were on the horizon. Amid such vigilant examination, a shift in the atmosphere has occurred, with the American podcaster Joe Rogan sharpening the saddle of praises.

Being a firm advocate of West’s music, Rogan added another bling to his acclaim. Furthermore, his approval also accompanies a personal recommendation.

Joe Rogan lauds Kanye West on his podcast

After the infamous Las Vegas rant by West, came a string of negative feedback, first by Andrew Schulz followed by Michael Rapaport. While it did appear that the spate of criticism was unending, Joe Rogan hopped on to clear the air for Ye on The Joe Rogan Experience, as can be seen in the clip circulating on X, formerly Twitter, by NFR Podcast. In his recent episode, diving deep into his admiration for the rapper, he advocated, “You gotta let him go out of line every now & again.”.

Rogan continued, “That’s what makes him so brilliant.”. In between the cascade of compliments, the podcaster also recommended one of his personal favorites. Up-tuning Ye’s ‘Jail’ track from ‘Donda’, Rogan insisted on how it is the one song he always plays “in the green room”. Moreover, humming the lyrics, he emphasized how the record really “rocks”. From Rogan’s attestation, one transparent thing is that Kanye West is a part of his staple.

After being subjected to constant speculations, the breath of approval is just what was required. However, this is not the first time that Rogan has sided with Kanye West. 

Back when Joe Rogan gave his green light to Kanye West

Kanye West’s influence is truly unparalleled. For a long time, Rogan was eyeing Kanye’s presence in his podcast. Finally, about 3 years ago, Ye attended Joe Rogan’s podcast, sharing his views on many topics, including his music, his presidential run, and more. Circling the subject of sharing a glimpse of his thought process, West thought that his talks were not “rants” but a “symphony of ideas”. Since then, Rogan has often emphasized how West has been misunderstood.

Furthermore, following that, Rogan was vocal about how he “has always been a fan of his music” in another episode. The podcaster insisted that Ye is not only a “prolific artist” but also a conscious “stream of creativity”. Keeping in mind his commendations, his mentioning of him at this point also seems like an intentional choice. Therefore, it is indeed clear that, no matter what like a silver lining in the cloudy sky, the string of backlashes has no shortcomings in his succession of kudos.
