I've just got to say, that baby is adorable.

The new video is 4 buckets of hilarious.  What a clown.

Kanye West speaks at Harvard University

[Paul Kemp]

"The all-too-common descriptions of Kanye as “crazy” or “childish” or “out of control” follow the long-held, socially sanctioned belittlement and demonization of black men. When he reacts angrily to an interviewer patronizing him, as he did when Sway Calloway suggested his approach to the fashion industry was misguided, he’s not viewed as a deeply frustrated artist who is forced to answer the same condescending questions over and over but, rather, as a disturbed man prone to flying off the handle. . .

. . . At some point, Kanye went from being America’s black friend to being America’s public enemy number one; the backpacks, brightly colored Polo shirts, and charming collegiate demeanor that once identified him as safe were replaced with a black-and-leather uniform, a set of bottom grills, and a willingness to prioritize his own truth-telling over proper decorum (the Taylor Swift interruption heard ‘round the world is a prime example of that). He publicly grappled with the realization that America wants his window-paned sunglasses, not his take on racism or urban violence or the structure of higher education and certainly not his opinion on the way it treats black artists."

Word.

All artists get asked the same condescending questions over and over, that's no excuse to "fly off the handle".  He's a clown.

We get it, he's a sore loser.

A fan of Cosby, still, and is $53M in debt.  Always a class act.

Kanye had a temper tantrum of epic scale before SNL went live last Saturday. You have to listen to it for yourself because description cannot do it justice.

Wouldn't be surprised if he gets banned from SNL for doing this. He literally held the show hostage by threatening to leave before it went on air.

You know what happens to assholes that burn every bridge they see?  Even if you've got MJ (pick one) levels of talent you still can't get away with porking EVERYbody over, and he ain't got MJ levels of talent.
