I dont know if he's sincere but he's smart if what he's doing is sucking up to Trump. We all have seen what happens when celebs publicly bad mouth Trump cough Kevin Spacey cough. The skeletons will come out of that closet if you bad mouth the commander in chief assuming you have them.

Ahh Lads..

"Kanye West is not Picasso
I am Picasso
Kanye West is not Edison
I am Edison
I am Tesla
Jay-Z is not the Dylan of Anything
I am the Dylan of anything
I am the Kanye West of Kanye West
The Kanye West
Of the great bogus shift of bullshit culture
From one boutique to another
I am Tesla
I am his coil
The coil that made electricity soft as a bed
I am the Kanye West Kanye West thinks he is
When he shoves your ass off the stage
I am the real Kanye West
I don’t get around much anymore
I never have
I only come alive after a war
And we have not had it yet"
* Leonard Cohen, March 2015

seems vaguely racist considering he's just knocking black artists and praising white boys. I can see why you would like this tho!

oh, to be clear, I wasn't necessarily insinuating that you would like the poem because of the latent racism but more because it is so obnoxiously self-aggrandizing. chill.

i'm not sure that poem is criticizing Kanye so much as it is criticizing both Kanye and those who criticize Kanye. Like, he's saying it's ALL bullshit. That's my read anyway.

Yeah that poem doesn’t strike me as a slam on Ye.

During his visit with Trump, Kanye mentioned Apple in the context of telling Trump he wanted to build an “iPlane” to replace Air Force One. According to Spin, the so-called “iPlane” was a 2012 master’s thesis by industrial designer Shabtai Hirshberg and had nothing to do with Apple. In remarks on Twitter the day after his Saturday Night Live performance, he called his Yeezy company an unofficial wing of Apple.

People at the store were reportedly left confused by Kanye’s speech. After wrapping it up, he reportedly told the crowd he was “going to Africa.” Watch footage of Kanye’s “keynote” below.

I really believe that I've never heard a leftist use the term regressive fairly ever.

Ultimately Trump is just using Kanye and exploiting him bencause he's black and he thinks its helping him with voters. So, yea america is racist, and Kanye....you're being Trump's New Age slave

For example, Kanye should know better than anyone that factories aren't the wave of the future. That's pure Trump talking points.
