This article is representative of Prometheus. I think that he and Kanye West are similar in that they both defied the person over seeing what they were doing. Prometheus defied Zeus by having compassion on humans and giving them fire, this resulted in him being tortured for many years. Though not as extreme, the same thing happened to Kanye West when he stated his opinion while talking about Hurricane Katrina,that the U.S. government is not set up to help those who are poor and/or black. Also he said that the President of the United States at that time did not care about what happened to black and poor people. Kanye made a direct comment against those in power, like the president and the government when he knew that he would face heavy criticism for saying what he thought was right. In this way Kanye West and Prometheus are similar.

This is a bit of a stretch, but you adequately explain the connection. 100%
