“When I was doing Cruel Summer everybody acted like they didn’t like it, and they even tried to take me lower on the emcee list,” says Kanye. “Ain’t nobody had a verse that year to the level of… ‘New God Flow’ verse or the level of ‘Cold’ as a song, but because it was so accessible and because ‘Clique’ and “Mercy’ became so popular people were like, ‘That’s really popular. I don’t like it’.”
