The premiere social network for music industry professionals

On V-103, they talked about Kanye West's newest complaints:

"KANYE WEST tells VIBE MAGAZINE, ” I want the freedom of having less fans. It’s like the freedom of having less money… If you have less money, you have less responsibility.” Excuse me? Come again, KANYE? Basically he said thanks for supporting the album, but no thanks! Glad I got the bootleg!

That’s not all, KANYE also expressed his aspirations to “break every rule and mentality of hip-hop, of Black culture, of American culture.” How you ask? Well by posing nude of course! KANYE explains to VIBE, ” It’s like BJORK. If she wants to pose naked, you’d be like ‘Oh that’s BJORK.’ But if I wanted to pose naked people would draw all type of things into it. I definitely feel like, in the next however many years, if I work out for two months, then I’ll pose naked. ”

ROFLMAO

So, basically, Kanye wants the status of an underground rapper now. Like, it's not good enough to sell millions of records with cheap music all of a sudden; now he wants Common's status.

Sorry bo, not gonna happen. Can't go from the house to the field.

And of course, with the "changing hip hop's mentality" spiel, Kanye's no.1 objective right now is to make gayness popular in hip hop. I'm not joking or calling him gay; he admires how gay men dress (pastel colors) and gets offended by punchlines about homosexuality. I'm not making this up, it's on youtube.

Kanye... Dawg... All you gotta do is go in the studio and put your voice over a beat. Why you makin it complicated? Nobody cares to see or hear from you outside of that. MAKE THE MUSIC WITH YOUR MOUTH AND SHUT UP. If you wanna wear pastel colors, then wear pastel colors; nobody would make fun of you if nobody could see you. Be unseen. But be heard. That's all I'm trying to say.

Kanye, Kanye, Kanye...That's all I can say. He's always been sort of a loose cannon waiting to explode. I think his music is really HOT but some of things he says just leads me to believe like Bossman said that he is really off his rockers, especially since the death of his mother. I place him and Lil Wayne in the same category. A hot mess! And there is really nothing else to write or say about ignorance.

but you know what: that's what the music industry AND Hollywood loves about Kanye and Lil Wayne: that they are completely different and will pretty much say just about anything. You listen to them because you know they are going to say something completely unexpected. Same with 50, Diddy and now even JD.

But for me the difference is that Kanye actually believes the stuff he says and so does Lil Wayne. I think 50, Diddy, and JD say things for publicity.

This is true Thedy.

I just wish that the young black males who are in the public eye would be more aware of the young black men who are aspiring to be like them one day. They really don't care who they influence. And white music label America is all to happy to introduce one more "Sambo" to it's line up. Let's show America how foolish we can be, not how smart and intelligent and responsible we as black men can be. Can we please show America the truth about how "real black men" are for a change? I'm so sick of these negative images being presented for the joy of many whites who already have a low opinion of us.

Unfornately, people like Bjork, Brittney Spears, and Lindsey Lohan can act crazy. Why? Because they're white. I hate to say this but it is the truth. It's a different set of rules for blacks and especially we as black men, whether we're famous or not, have got to stop presenting this ridiculous image of ourselves to the world. "WE ARE NOT THAT WAY!!" auugghhh!!

but "White America" will not put up with a young black male setting a positive example. For the most part we will not be accepted by our own if we speak a positive message. And then further more, "White America" isnt going to promote us when speaking a positive message. Further more, they will eradicate us for speaking the truth if someone listens. Look at Tupac. I have no solution besides trying to get over the life that I lived and working towards a more positive message to tell those that will be following me.

First of all, I believe Tupac was a genius and a prophetic rapper. But it was the lifestyle he led off the stage, the thuglife mentality he couldn't let go of, that caused his death, not white america. We can take white america out of the equation. That's why I said that. Because we need to boost ourselves up. Ultimately we are responsible for what happens in our own homes and our neighborhoods. Only us, so we need to do the things necessary to get the positive message out there. Is it easy? No! Can it be done? Of course it can. I'm fighting everyday to get a positive message out there about blacks. If everyone would do a little bit, we would all be much better off.

See I have to disagree with you somewhat. Personally, I think Kanye was elevated to the level he was by white America because he was not talking gangsta rap. His big hit that landed him on shows like Kelly and Regis was Jesus Walks.

Reply to This

I agree, but they are just going TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Far. I mean, that Prom song Lil' Wayne has is a hot mess!!!! It's awful! WTF???!!!! And then him telling Giant magazine, he doesn't believe anything but the Dictionary? He goes on to say that he doesn't like to read books, especially the Bible because who is to say that the stuff in books are true? So that means you don't take the time to educate yourself? How could you think that everything that you think is right because you don't want to believe anything else someone has to say?IGNORANT! Lil' Wayne and Kanye are just getting to be too much for me. And like everybody else is saying, what message are you sending to the millions of kids that are wanting to be just like you. Theses gentlemen have a platform to be a positive role model for young black guys, but because they are so selfish, they think it's all about them and that's not cool. They both need help!
