The Sacramento thing is so odd.

Wonder if he's just trying to draw all the attention back on himself and away from Kim being robbed. Doubt he's that chivalrous, but the other option is he's clearly on drugs or having another breakdown.

Great way to show appreciation for your fans by showing up late, ranting incoherently for 20 mins, playing three songs, and then canceling the show. Yay for Yeezy!

11/21/2016 10:47:18 AM

His suicide can't come soon enough.

Hopefully he'll do a Jack Torrance and take his wife and kid(s) with him.

11/21/2016 2:40:35 PM

Jack Torrance was not successful in killing his wife and kid. Perhaps you meant Delbert Grady.

On that note, did you see the recent picture of Shelly Duvall?

Sounds like an overly complex fraud scheme for an already rich family to get not that much richer. I guess these Qatari sisters robbed in France are fraudstrs too? http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38064242

For real... Kanye West is mentally ill, and unfortunately for him, his episodes play out in public.

Trump has, what, 30 sexual harassment accusations, plus at least one rape complaint and is an admitted sexual assaulter. Plus he surrounds himself with men who have have questionable pasts with women. And he is an admitted bigot and surrounds himself with bigots

"Believe me, I’m so done with this too. Done watching the president and Republicans shamelessly co-opt dumb and extremely dangerous thoughts being spouted by one of the most influential artists of the past 15 years. Done with having to side-eye his celebrity friends for spreading misinformed rhetoric in order to defend him. Done with following his every move on Twitter. And most of all, I’m just done with Kanye West doing anything but putting out music. But here we are. Another day in Yeezy Season 2018, another ignorant statement from Yeezy himself, this time not on his preferred platform of Twitter, but on, of all places, TMZ Live. In a montage of clips released on the site, West dropped in to chat with host Harvey Levin about being so appalled that people are still upset about slavery. An actual quote: When you hear about slavery for 400 years—for 400 years? That sound like a choice! Like, you was there for 400 years, and it’s all of y’all? It’s like we’re mentally in prison. I like the word prison, because slavery goes too direct to the idea of blacks. It’s like slavery, Holocaust, Holocaust, Jews. Slavery is blacks. So prison is something that unites us as one race … the human race. The idea that black American slavery was a choice on the part of the slaves themselves is one of many utterly preposterous historical myths that nonetheless persists into the 21st century. Also, preferring to use the term prison as a way of “unit[ing]” all races is rich, considering the highly disproportionate number of people of color in prison compared to their white counterparts. This shift from slavery to imprisonment has been famously chronicled in plenty of places, including a highly regarded and heavily cited 8-year-old best-seller, but considering West’s proud claims that he doesn’t read books, he probably missed the memo. Maybe he listens to podcasts? Later in the TMZ montage, staffer Van Lathan called out West for his BS. “I think what you’re doing right now is actually the absence of thought … there is fact and real-world consequence behind everything you just said. While you are making music and being an artist … the rest of us in society have to deal with these threats to our lives.” A TMZ staffer standing in for all of us in this moment: That’s how far down we’ve come, folks"

Man, yall are going to say I'm contrarian, but I've been on this ever since watching the nat turner movie. What if all slaves just stopped working? economically, they can't just beat all the slaves or kill them so they would negotiate. Slavery could have justed ended right there and became sharecropping. Imagine if all slaves revolted and took up arms.

They chose to work and its an ugly thing to think about because kanye's point is that we are still slaves today. slaves to capitalism. name breands, 9-5. All that shit. Today, everyones scared of losing their social status, job, or whatever and choose slavery instead. Its profound but kanye is misunderstood.

I can't imagine what the choice would be like or what I would choose in that situation but they absolutely chose to be a slave over being beaten or killed while fighting for freedom.

People act like kanye meant people signed up for slavery over freedom. Of course thats not what he meant. Be fair.

Is he mentally challenged? I am not even referring to his claim that slavery was a choice here.

Wait, that makes sense, I suppose. He loves Trump, and Trump loves him; neither of them can converse using proper English. Made for each other.

5/2/2018 1:50:13 AM

transcripts don't cpature personal communication well but who cares about his grammar? he's a master of language even if its not the queens english.

he's saying slavery is our holocaust . talking about slavery offends black people and talking about the holocaust offends jews so he rather just talk about prison since they are both forms of prison and everyone can relate to prison without the emotions of those two terms.

Hahaha. I mean I get what you're after...but maybe look at the intimidation methods (torture, baby murder, etc.) used to keep these people "choosing to be a slave". These were real people in the moment with everything to lose and no means of mass communication/assembly/organization.

Keep drinking the Kool aid tho.

I hope he's reaching toward some discussion on wage slavery, because there's a lot to be said about choosing to be slaves in the 21st century. But man, what a fucking terrible way to make the point.

Re: Kanye

Under no circumstance should anyone look to him for rational thought, moral or political leadership, or enlightenment.


As for this particular instance of dumbassery, the guy has an album coming out, so like every other time he grabs headlines and publicity by acting like a chode for the cameras.

Yeah everybody’s putting way too much stock in his opinion and thoughts. I generally enjoy his music and that’s good enough for me. Yeah some of the stuff he says is wild but I don’t turn to Kanye for deep, thought provoking dialogue and/or politics. I’m not expecting that out of him. I just want dope music.

It isn't if you actually put aside your blind devotion to a talented producer that says and does a lot of awful stupid things.

We are literally talking about how Kanye is victim-blaming 400 years of slavery, while simultaneously promoting Trump.
