So I immediately felt really comfortable, and I thought, "Oh, this is going to be really fun." I think people would be happy to know he's got a great vibe around him. Some people you meet, it's not easy, whether they're celebrities or not celebrities: there's a vibe that doesn't make it easy for you to be yourself. We just started talking to each other, and it was very easy and casual. And then when Kanye walked in, he had a big smile on his face, he came over, gave me a big hug. Okay, well, I'm in his house, I've not met him, I'm kind of in a waiting room-I'm a surprise, so nobody wants me to be, you know, walking around the house in the kitchen making eggs when Kim comes downstairs. You said that Kanye was really nice and really fun. This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from. We spoke to the currently touring silky jazz maestro about the experience, what he knows of the album, and how collaborating with Kanye affected his own art. But one thing does seem clear: Kenny G’s playing stuck. The album, which has since transformed from Yandhi to Jesus Is King, remains a mystery to all but a few. He noodled, took the record home and noodled on it some more, and sent it back to Kanye. To which Kanye said, "Cool," pulled out a microphone, and let Kenny G do his thing. "You know, I think if my saxophone was on there it would sound really good," he said. Spirits high, after the performance, Kanye took Kenny to his studio to play him some music he was working on… And that’s when Kenny G had an idea. For a change, Kanye was in the news for something uncomplicatedly good and sweet (the only red in the room was the flowers). For most of the video, the camera is trained on Kenny G, but you imagine that what’s happening behind the camera looks something like this. Kim taped it, and posted the clip online with an ecstatic caption. In the middle of it all, there was a clear path, and at the end of it, Kenny G, his soprano, and an ethereal sensation. In a completely bare-sorry, minimal-white room, Kanye laid out a garden of roses in clear vases, like it was a conceptual exhibit at LACMA. The plan, hatched by Kanye, was to surprise serenade Kim with the sax-playing synonym of smooth himself. This past Valentine’s Day, duty took Cupid to the West-Kardashian household. Which is how Kenny G (probably) wound up on the (hopefully) forthcoming Kanye West album. Out of the (correct) notion that if he pushes the right buttons on his instrument and the vibe is correct, he might just shoot an arrow through the hearts of some lucky lovers. Not out of need for money or even for self-affirmation, mind you, but rather in the name of love. Every Valentine’s Day, that saxophone player-beloved by Kanye West, and the same one whose music you hear, well, everywhere-takes a gig. Cupid isn’t real, but you might be fooled by a certain 63-year-old saxophone player with long locks of curly brown hair and an affinity for custom-made suits.
