Kanye West replaces every mention of God in 'Book of Yeezus' Bible
Everyone knows the rapper has an ego but even he wouldn't have done this
He may be known for his admittedly massive ego, but surely even Kanye West would not have seen himself replacing God in the Bible.
The holy book's Genesis has been reworked for a "modern day Bible" dubbed
The Book of Yeezus and believe it or not, every mention of God has been changed to the rapper's name.
"In
a sense, Kanye's awesome and orchestrated spectacle is truly a
religious experience," a description of the book reads. "For this
generation, Generation Y, Kanye West is not only its greatest spectacle
but in some senses, a spiritual figure.
"In a foreword, we explore
our consumerist, quick-fix and information culture and celebrate Kanye
and the outsized significance he plays in our lives."

Kanye is yet to comment on his newfound Godlike status but has compared himself to the Supreme Being before.
"God
chose me, He made a path for me. I am God's vessel," he said back in
2009. "But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see
myself perform live."
