Kanye West had a rather inspired Twitter session on Wednesday evening, and suggested that it was he, and perhaps some people like him, that could save the planet.
The rapper, who incidentally claims to have not bought a car or jewellery in the last two years, thinks that the world is missing something, and apparently it is an amalgamation of himself, Steve Jobs and, perhaps, Steve or Alexander McQueen.
The world will be improved through the launch of a company called Donda, that West said could change the world and the way that it consumes - oh, and arrange MTV music events.
DONDA is a design company which will galvanize amazing thinkers and put them in a creative space to bounce there dreams and ideas...

"I am assembling a team of architects, graphic designers, directors musicians, producers, AnRs, writers, publicist, social media experts, app guys, managers, car designers, clothing designers, DJs, video game designers, publishers, tech guys, lawyers, bankers, nutritionist, doctors, scientist, teachers," West explained in a stream of messages that look like they are fuelled by something other than his creative juices.
Donda will be split into 22 divisions that will go around doing exciting things all the time.
We need to take what Michael Jackson felt and Mcqueen and Steve Jobs and we need make things better...

"We need as many amazing powerful smart talented wealthy people to be involved... Come get on board... don't just sit there... reach out. We can collectively effect the world trough design. We need to pick up where steve jobs left off."
We're pretty sure that was with the release of Apple television or the iPhone 5, but we don't think that Apple would thank anyone else for releasing those.
[Editor's note: Spelling all Kanye's own, we didn't want to restrain the creative genius with our house style]


Steve Jobs (pictured left) and George Clooney (right).
Sneak's not known for his ability to rank the attractiveness of other males of the species but even he has to admit there's not much resemblance between oh-so-dreamy George Clooney and other man Steve Jobs.
Sure, Jobs was a great guy and Sneak loves using the iPad as a make-shift dinner tray when he can't be bothered to wash up his single, solitary plate, but let's not pretend he was as hot as one of the most attractive men on the planet.
But yes, according to movie gossip from Digital Spy, the former doctor from ER is in line to play Jobs in the forthcoming biopic that will be written by The Social Network scribbler Aaron Sorkin.
The report also suggests that someone named Noah Wyle (also from ER) could play Jobs, and a look over a few pictures of Mr Wyle does suggest he has a far more Jobsian appearance than Clooney.
Wyle actually played Jobs once before in the awfully titled Pirates of Silicon Valley, which given the fact Sneak's never heard of it, can't have been that good, but he's stuck it on the Lovefilm queue anyway.
The real question this all drags up, though, is who would play Sneak in a biography of his life: probably Javier Bardem as seen in No Country for Old Men. Same haircut.
