Kanye West Rants About Education and Design PlansPosted on: January 5, 2012 | Leave a Comment
I love Kanye West. Seriously. You may not dig his egotistical behavior or his unfiltered rants…but he is one of the most interesting celebrities out there. You never know what is gonna come outta this guys mouth. It’s fascinating. His latest loooong stream of conscientiousness Twitter rant covered topics such as his new company DONDA (named after his late mother), designing huge award shows and the broken American school system. Here is summary of what he talked about..but you really need to the slide show at The Huffington Post to appreciate it fully. I’m as surprised to saying this as anyone..but I absolutely agree with about the American school system. epic Twitter rant on Wednesday night, discussing his new clothing line, his musical plans and, most significantly, his new company, which he says will”pick up where Steve Jobs left off.” Called Donda, after his late mother, West revealed that its goal will be to “make products and experiences that people want and can afford,” “to help simplify and aesthetically improve everything we see hear, touch, taste and feel,” and “dream of, create, advertise and produce products driven equally by emotional want and utilitarian need.. To marry our wants and needs.” It will be comprised, West tweeted, of over 22 divisions staffed by “architects, graphic designers, directors musicians, producers, AnRs, writers, publicist, social media experts, app guys, managers, car designers, clothing designers, DJs, video game designers, publishers, tech guys, lawyers, bankers, nutritionists, doctors, scientists and teachers.” Specifically, West wrote that one of Donda’s “projects to be released this year [is] called 2016 OLYMPIC’s … It’s a semi sic-fi since 2016 is only 4 years away,” which presumably means that it will be a movie. West also disclosed that he was in talks to become the creative director of the “Jetsons” movie, and wants to design the MTV Awards, which probably means the VMAs. In addition, West wrote that he wants to help reshape the American school system, which he says was “designed to turn people into factory workers.” That includes starting a summer school with director Spike Jonze. “There are so many broken systems from the economy to school systems jail systems… we need experts for this,” he later said, promising that his creativity and ability to bring experts together would be of service in the effort to solve intractable problems.
Kanye West Compares Himself To HitlerPosted on: August 8, 2011 | Comments Off
Kanye West’s momma did a good job instilling a superb feeling of self-worth in her son. He is never afraid to tell us all that he is God’s gift….and to let us know that even though we hate him now…we will all soon realize his genius. Kanye performed at the Big Chill music festival Saturday night when he went on one of his signature rants about how misunderstood he is. “I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I’m f**king insane … like I’m Hitler. One day the light will shine through and one day people will understand everything I ever did.” Moments later, Kanye suggested that he needed to be the MJ of music, “Michael Jordan changed so much in basketball, he took his power to make a difference. It’s so much f**king going on in music right now and somebody has to make a f**king difference.”
Video: Kanye West “MONSTER” Featuring Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj & Bon IverPosted on: December 30, 2010 | Comments Off
Featuring more zombies, vampire models and soul-less hanging models than you can shake a stick at, Kanye West’s new video for Monster feels like watching a mish-mash of Hostel, I Am Legend, Underworld and Daybreakers….with maybe a touch of Eddie Murphy in A Vampire in Brooklyn. I don’t know. I can’t decide if Gay-Fish hit a homer with this one for creativity or maybe it’s just because it’s such a departure from your standard hip-hop video that I think it’s creative. I mean Rob Zombie has been doing this shit for years.
Playgirl Turned Down Kanye West Nude PicturesPosted on: November 12, 2010 | Comments Off
Kanye West deserves all the bad karma he gets. He continues to make an ass of himself anytime someone puts a microphone in his face. (See the Matt Lauer interview from The Today Show this week below). But that’s not what I wanted to tell you about. I wanted to mock Kanye and his sad little man parts because he offered nude pictures of himself to Playgirl magazine and they turned his dumb ass down. Indeed, Playgirl says they were offered the West pictures first, before they hit the web elsewhere. “It would have cost us $100,000, and we said no,” reveals the Playgirl rep, before adding, “we should have said yes.”
I disagree. They did the right thing.
