I believe this is the same paint Kanye is really trying to make, and this is not a Repiblican talking point.
Kanye sounds fine to me, sans the slavery comment. I like a lot of what I'm hearing from him socially and obviously musically.
I love this man.
But... if you get rid of the 13th, that would allow all kinds of slavery, right? What am I missing here? Shouldn't they be saying "let's amend it"?
Oh yeah, there you go. Sorry I didn't see that if you posted before. Now you're talking, ye

Instead of sitting on private jets tweeting incoherent nonsense how about he actually does something useful like help young aspiring musicians or funding music lessons in schools?
Probably sees them as a threat and doesn’t want to be usurped from his imaginary throne.

Ah that’s cool. Bono does the same here for you musicians and donates 100k a year totally anonymously to homeless charities just cos he’d get no end of shit about ‘is That all you gave?’
Great to hear that thanks. It’s just social / corporate social Responsibility stuff as with pearl jam. You earn over a certain amount you have to do stuff. But hey let’s spin it to look like heroes.
But it is good to know he’s at least doing that much.

I don't think the thirteenth amendment is actually required to outlaw slavery. It's kinda redundant, but I guess it's better safe than sorry, considering that whole civil war thing.

This is an actually racist post that boils down to insulting someone's intelligence based on race.

That's how rap works these days. One project I was waiting for was supposed to come out months ago. I'm still waiting. But yeah, it's annoying.
Lil Wayne's album was delayed for 6 years.

This is a bit extreme though. "Hey, album's out this weekend!" wait up all night saturday into sunday... "Nah, how about in 2 months".
gota practice my yandhi i guess.
grrrr
