In a series of interviews which took place back in January, Kanye speaks on a variety of topics including his next album, his alter-egos, Sunday Service, and his relationship with God. Yeezy also discusses living in his 4,000-acre West Lake Ranch, the passing of Kobe Bryant, his plans on voting in the upcoming elections and his continued support for Donald Trump, and much more.

Read excerpts below peruse the full cover here.

On the late Kobe Bryant:

“Everyone in our life is now a member of the Lakers on one of Kobe’s championship teams,” West told GQ. “The way that Kobe would say that we all have to come together and win this championship is the way I look at life now. To an infinite, other level. This is a game changer for me. He was the basketball version of me, and I was the rap version of him, and that’s facts! We got the commercials that prove it. No one else can say this. We came up at the same time, together. And now it’s like, yeah, I might have had a reputation for screaming about things—but I’m not taking any mess for an answer now. We’re about to build a paradigm shift for humanity. We ain’t playing with ’em. We bringing home the trophies.”

On the upcoming US elections:

No, I’m definitely voting this time. And we know who I’m voting on. And I’m not going to be told by the people around me and the people that have their agenda that my career is going to be over. Because guess what: I’m still here! Jesus Is King was No. 1! I was told my career would end if I wasn’t with her. What kind of campaign is that, anyway? That’s like if Obama’s campaign was “I’m with black.” What’s the point of being a celebrity if you can’t have an opinion? Everybody make their own opinion! You know?
