Sep 27, 2015 As fan of both, I've seen that there are a lot of similarities between them. First; they both are arrogant. "I won't be a rock star, I will be a legend"-Freddie mercury "I am a creative genius"- Kanye. Second, they both always has been confident. "He said, I'm the saviour of Chicago, I'm a genius, when he didn't even had a single" jay z about Kanye west. "I always knew I'm a star, now the rest of the world agrees with me" Freddie. Third, they are both crazy about clothing. "I have fun with my clothes onstage; it's not a concert you're seeing, it's a fashion show."- Freddie I don't need to elaborate for Kanye. Fourth, they had the same idea about concerts. "A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrica! event." -Freddie Kanye concerts have never been musically perfect, always some kind of flaws and lyrics he forgets, but the light shows, energy and the originality made him one of the best actual live performers. Fifth, their idea about artists and expression. "I'm just a musical prostitute my dear" Freddie. Kanye always spoke about the fact he don't want to just make music and shut up life people want him to do.
