Is Kanye West on drugs? Or is he a great artist of our time?
I have been exploring my eccentricities lately and I checked out this video by Kanye West:
I feel that it's a very artistic indulgement into the career of a rap artist who needs to gain respect after a: coming back into the game after having his mouth wired shut, and b: insulting Taylor Swift at the MTV Music awards. However, if you watch it, why is it that all the black people at the table are being served by whites?
How do I view this? I always say that history repeats itself. In this case, the tables are turned, and perhaps so is racial status.
Does this mean Kanye West is a racist?
That's for you to decide, not me...but what is the signifigance of the ballerinas while he sings "Runaway"?
What's with the bird woman screaching at the "main course"?
I don't consider this video as "weird", I consider it as the expression of 1 man, "Kanye", but what's everyone elses take?

I don't like you because you said in a post once that shopping at Walmart is un-American. Your thread has no legs and no one gives a **** about your pseudo intellectual thesis about today's philistinian culture.
Kanye West is insane. Everyone knows this and it's best to just drop it.

But mr. PUSHA, you're mistaken. If you take your Delorean back in time and read that post over again, then you will realize that I was being sarcastic towards my wal mart comment. If I was serious, then why would I drive a Mazda (made in Japan), and buy all my dog food at walmart. Along with my underwear, my t-shirts, my armor all, my Castrol GTX, and whatever else my heart desires to acquire in such a well varietied store.

Yeah, I endured around six and determined he wasn't going to be sending up a flare when he approached a point.
He is only marginally educated for a sixth grader, but his audience suffers such profound intellectual inadequacy that they consider him gifted; the OP knows this. I find it curious that he expends so much effort in bravado because he is ashamed of his inferiority. He makes it very clear that he knows he is not worthy of what he has received but is trying to act worthy to attempt to defer guilt he feels. It is a hollow circle and, psychologically, he can't fill it. Putting whites down is a childlike maneuver to make himself feel bigger and to gain points with his target audience. Speaking out of turn in the award show is further evidence that he is developmentally a child. Couth escapes him.

The video is the love child of whomever produced it. NOT Kayne. Try again.
Anyways, **** Kayne. Who gives a **** about some egomaniac? Find a real role model, like John Galt or Howard Rourak.
That's not sad at all. They do not entertain the masses.
People spend money in a manner that benefits themselves. We work in order to support and enjoy our own lives. And if we find value in Kayne - we are entitled to spend our money on this pleasure. Kayne's fortune is not taken from those who do not care for his work - he did not make his money from you, 18psi. Nor does he stand in the "Bright Mind's" way.
The Bright Minds also do not lack their own proper recognition and support.
The economic value of a man’s work is determined by the voluntary consent of those who are willing to trade him their work or products in return. Bright Minds do not seek this type of economic value.
