Let's talk about Kanye West for a minute




Last night Kanye West went on Jimmy Kimmel to discuss the trials and tribulations of being a celebrity. How it's just such a rough life living in the spotlight, comparing the life of a celebrity to that of a caged animal in a zoo. Couldn't agree more, 100% makes sense. Only one difference though, Kanye. The zoo isn't paying the lions and zebras millions of dollars to be there. You, on the other hand, are literally handed cash; endorsements, free clothes/trips/girls/food/booze/drugs, anything you want you are spoon-fed. You're a spoiled little rich girl and you're going to sit here and bitch and moan about how rough your life is? Boo fucking hoo, you poor baby. Forgive me, but it's not exactly easy sympathizing with someone who, just a few months ago, was basically calling themselves a demi-god. Sure Yeezus essentially considers himself a deity, and he tells everybody that he is, and he raps about how important and influential he is and how everyone should listen to everything he says, but seriously guys let's lay off with the pressure. Can he get some privacy? We're making his life rough, it's not like he's totally bringing any of this shit on himself.

Also, where did I ever get the nerve to say the Kanye-Kimmel Twitter fight was fake!? Yeezus don't fuck around with publicity stunts, hell no! He ain't fake! Did he talk like an educated human being for the first 3 years of his career, then have it shift to preachy, narcissistic thug, and now have it shift a third time to 16 year old pubescent mathlete? Sure, but that's not fake, that's not a stunt, that's just the natural progression of his voice. Him telling off Taylor Swift onstage wasn't for attention you guys, it was necessary. Don't you get that?  Kanye's just being Kanye, real as ever. Only now he's soft as baby shit and likes to cry about his feelings to anyone who will listen. Different, sure, but still totally the same old Mr. West.




PS - If you think Kanye is "real" you're a clown. Guy is a one-man gimmick factory. Fact.
