This is one bloke i just CANNOT stand (the other being Chris “beat em down” Brown). His ego and the way he handles himself irks the living daylights out of me! Who buys his crap music?! I certainly won’t be spending my hard earned money on this XXL copy! The last thing i need before the weekend is to hear about the goings on in ‘Kayne’ West’s life.
I like the layout of the front cover, from a design point of view.
@ Gza:
“Crap music”?
I dunno about that…
Love him or hate him, West is one of the greatest producers Hip Hop has ever seen, full stop.
His ego could stand to be toned down a bit…well, OK-A LOT-but to say his music is wack? Hmmmm…I dunno.
He just needs to learn to pick on people his own size. I don’t care what colour you are but any man picking on a girl much younger than he is on a big platform is never a good look. kanye has multiple platforms he can use to vent if he wanted to (without acting the total idiot). The rest of the other antics he did never really bothered me and always amused me.
Ps, I love ‘diamonds are forever’ and ‘Gold digger featuring jamie’ hahaha. That’s as far as i go.
Music industry is full of gimmicks that people eat up every day no problem, normally used to hide limited talent, when a black man uses his ego to sell records which are actually half decent everyone has a heartattack!?
I really don’t get it. Hip hop from the start has always been about ego and staying you’re the best. Also Kanye West is good at what he does he has produced classic records for himself and others.
He has apologised for the Taylor Swift incident, when will folks let it go?
I really don’t get it.
Ooops I meant “hip hop has always been about ego and saying you’re the best”
The cover is cool but I hate that damn necklace… too damn much! I am disappointed with music as a whole but there are some great musicians, producers, singers, and rappers still holding it down.
EGO is necessary in the entertainment business!
