I'm a musician, so I do follow this stuff, but it seems if one has issues with Kanye, one is automatically a racist. Whatever.....

(68,644 posts)I didn't want to touch it but I did begin to wonder-- WTH good has he done with his $130 Million, and where did that come from?
My guess: it came kids stuck in a culture that values celebrity over integrity, it all goes into his pockets and does he give any of it back?
Hell no. He just leverages it to grow his celebrity to take more money from lost souls-- it's a depressing cycle.
Add to that the very shitty example he sets for admirers: that if you don't get your way then just make a scene about it, be an asshole.
Gotta love, though, that Obama called him a jackass.
