Kanye West: Delicate Enigma

posted by on December 20 at 10:29 AM

If you care about Spin, who cares about Kanye, who doesn’t like George Bush, who doesn’t care about black people, who don’t have desirable credit ratings:

“I’m a pop enigma. I live and breathe every element in life. I rock a bespoke suit and I go to Harold’s for fried chicken. It’s all these things at once, because, as a tastemaker, I find the best of everything. There’s certain things that black people are the best at and certain things that white people are the best at. Whatever we as black people are the best at, I’m a go get that. Like, on Christmas I don’t want any food that tastes white. And when I go to purchase a house, I don’t want my credit to look black.”

Miss West, you cannot be in a Kid Sister nail salon video, pose with Jeremy Scott and Cory Kennedy, use the word “bespoke,” and not expect us to think you’re the living, breathing incarnation of On the Down Low.

Um, can I smell your dick, at this time?

wasn't 'on the down low' a best-selling book? it had a sequel (and, if i'm not mistaken, an unofficial sequel).

wow, why is there still tired-ass un-clever harping about kanye's sexuality?

what are you really saying? 'ye's gay cause he used a frilly old word? cause he raps with girls and hangs out with hipster myspace fashion fools?

HE'S HELLA METROSEXUAL and shouldn't have to apologize for that.
