So in the first verse, we find him lyrically putting forth that he is a less-than-ideal lover, someone who is “not too good at” romance. Section 3īut again, as far as the actual verses go, they are more squarely focused on the vocalist(s) exploits in the field of romance. When taking the above analyses into consideration, it can be postulated that Kanye is going about proving he is in fact an A-hole not by harping on acts like the MTV incident but rather personal his love life. And in doing so, he is verifying that he does in fact have major personality issues at times. If he’s alluding to his behavior on the 2009 MTV VMA stage and other such questionable public acts, the type of which have helped transform West into a must-see in the world of entertainment, then the said sentiment would make sense.īut it wouldn’t in relation to the subsequent chorus proper, unless Kanye is referring to himself as a ‘d–chebag’, A-hole and ‘je-k-off’. And according to the most widely accepted explanation of the chorus, that is exactly what’s transpiring.
Kanye speaking to both a lady and the media at the same time. But if interpreted as so, that would mean he is more or less acknowledging, in the second line of the passage especially, that he mistreats the media, not vice versa. Now the pre-chorus is perhaps the part of this piece that can be most easily understood as a double entendre, i.e. And apparently, the purpose of this section is to get the listener amped in terms of the actual song that follows. The track begins with some sampled vocals primarily via Rick James and buttressed by the equally late James Brown. This musical explosion was supposedly prompted by the time he embarrassed both himself and Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards of 2009. However, whatever message he is supposedly sending to pop media via Runaway can get lost amidst what for the most part reads like a message to romantic interests and one in particular.īut with that noted, we will go through this track section-by-section to try to make the most sense out of what’s actually going down.
