You say 'interesting mind' ...but I wouldn't put it that way , however I do think he definitely needs help. And he should never have got involved with Trump and politics. He's clearly too thoughtless.Well can you blame people not taking him seriously,this is basically like if Charlie Sheen or Mel Gibson tried to jump on their platform screaming nonsense yet expecting people to listen ,we all know how insane they are .

For years Kanye had this weird attitude ... he loves controversy mixed with his bat sh1t behaviour.

When he got with Kim Kardashian , I'm surprised there was enough room for both their egos in that relationship. 2 self obsessed idiots.

His views on slaves is a bit unique I'll admit that.:joker:

In fairness it doesn't mean that he can't be right on other issues, it just seems like I wouldn't agree with him on race related issues very often.

If he genuinely is mentally ill then his family should be encouraging him to get help.

And not just the left tbf, I feel like society are very unforgiving nowadays to anyone who isn't perfect, unless you're insanely popular in your field.

It obviously wasn't each individual slave's choice to be enslaved, but the slave trade was enabled by other black Africans, who would kidnap people and sell them on. A particular proponent of tbe thing was the Dahomey tribe, who reacted particularly negatively to slavery being abolished in the West.
(The people being glorified in The Woman King movie)

So while his phrasing was awful, whites are far from the only guilty party.
Come on. Really? Do you call Cher or Madonna by their full names?

As stagenames go, Akala is fine. It obviously either comes from the Jungle Book, or Cub Scouts.

But that's like saying " oh it wasn't all Hitler's fault" , utterly insensitive & mad.

Kanye was victim blaming . The slave trade may have been enabled,but what he said was ridiculous.

There was no "Hitler Figure" in the slave trade. It wasn’t just enabled by other Africans, it was actively driven by them. They're as to blame as the other participants.

That's not what he said ,and he plain blank ignored all the slaves who fought or who tried to fight back whilst dying.

What did Dion do to get cancelled?

I literally worked out this morning its (Kan)Ye

he juist shortened his name like Ken or Rich :smug:

you could call yourself ET which is remarkably appropriate

I prefer Rumpet

He’s ill. That’s what’s going on with him.

I thought it was well known that he is Bi-polar which explains gis erratic behaviour. It doesn't excuse anything he says but there is a medical diagnosis as to why he often behaves the way he does. If anyone has lived with someone with bi-polar knows, its exhausting and at times frigtening with the moods swings and behaviours

I've been listening to his music for the past couple hours. He's a modern day musical genius.

Runaway, in particular, is just breathtaking, spine tingling.

He’s a genius who people looking for celebrity-goss. need to stop hounding in live time when he’s like this. By all means gossip about the Kardashians but like Annie said Kanye hasn’t been well in a long time. He has the periodic lucidity to make very good points but until he’s sorted out I can’t be too critical of anything he says right now. The various swings of bipolar disorder can turn someone into a repulsive so-and-so but it’s mostly the acuity of the illness talking, not them.

I brought College Drop Out on the day of release. Just incredible talent. He's been in an awful family. Been cancelled, yet he needs help. The twitter left destroying him is disgusting imo!

I actually still really like the Kardashians but that’s a story for another day, I guess.

You know things are crazy when Alex Jones almost looks like the sane one. That was a complete car crash.

If he was white we would not be excusing him on health grounds

lol

:think:

lies?

I never wanna hear that story

That's true too...

:joker: What a load of rubbish , you're not speaking for me ! . As I've been saying for years he was arrogant & obnoxious .

But it's more evident now that he's severely mentally unstable, and people need to stop giving him attention. And he either needs sectioning or something .

"if he was white we would not be excusing him on health grounds"
