    Tbh subtypes have always been an afterthought to me. It's always made sense to me that any ILE should display valuing of Si, regardless of whether or not they're personally strong in it.

    Addressing your typing of him via Fi-PoLR more closely, I'm not sure what anti-ethical ramblings you're talking about (pls feel free to point me in the right direction) but putting aside his statements of extreme narcissism for a second, his off-script statement with Mike Myers, his move with Swift and that whole pants thing never struck me as Fi-PoLR? In all those instances I think he was trying to accomplish something profound - highlighting racial discrimination against his community, against Beyonce/music by black artists in general, and against himself. Whether or not he achieved it is another matter.

    From what I can remember of his lyrics I wouldn't argue with him being intuitive, but I'm hesitant to go 'clever lyrics, word play, capable of double meanings = intuitive.' Consistent theme throughout his works (College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation). He has this extremely hard, aggressive image but bares his vulnerabilities in his lyrics, is deeply honest about his behaviour and his motivations, reflects on his position now and where he came from. Constantly references fashion as status symbol and race relations, is preoccupied with these themes. Reflects on psychosocial explanations of trends in his community. I didn't listen to 808's and Heartbreak because I didn't care for it but I thought My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was a really beautiful, logical progression from his trilogy. In general I can see the Fi and Ni.

    After that I stopped listening to him
