Kanye West

     I'm sure everyone has heard of the notorious Kanye West either because his music, the Illuminati conspiracies, or even his inappropriate behavior. There are those that despise and others that worship the hip-hop entertainer. He has made multiple best selling albums that flooded the music scene for long periods of time like "The College Dropout", "Late Registration", "Graduation", "808's & Heartbreaks", and the most recent "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". He also runs "Good Music" productions with many great artist signed to the label. The artist include Kid Cudi, Common, John Legend, Big Sean, Pusha T, and Mos Def. With talent like this, success and popularity came without a question. I personally believe that Mr. West has a great sense of production and creativity when it comes to constructing a popular and catchy tune. He is also currently one of the best lyricist in the music industry.
     There is also a darker side to Kanye. There has been multiple occasions where he said something rude or offensive that had him ridiculed by many. He was interviewed and explained how he thought could have his own book in the bible and confessed his addiction to pornography. This had offended many peoples beliefs and caused a stir in the media. During Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana West publicly announced his opinion on television that "George Bush Does Not Like Black People". Once again the media stirred and the story went worldwide. Many people were offended that he would express such an opinion about the figure head of or nation and thought of the statement as ignorant and appalling. On September 13, 2009 Taylor Swift was given an award for the best female video at the VMA awards and in the middle of her acceptance speech Kanye West stormed the stage claiming that she did not deserve but Beyonce Knowles did. The crowd erupted in "Boo's" and he handed the mic back then got off stage. Taylor was shocked and did not want to finish her acceptance speech until later in the show where Beyonce called her back up on stage. The most recent incident was at a concert in Herefordshire, England. After a performance he began to rant about a video of his called "Monster" that was recalled because women rights activist didn't agree with what it contained. He compared himself to Hitler in this quote. “I walk through the hotel and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I’m f**kin’ insane, like I’m Hitler.” Kanye West.
     Kanye West is also one of the acclaimed Illuminati members along with artist like Jay-Z, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Rhiana, and Snoop Dogg. Even some athletes are accused of having relations with the group as in Kobe Bryant and LeBron James. The Illuminati is a secret society that is believed to poses and harvest evil beliefs. Kanye once free-styled about selling his soul to the devil and that is believed to be the process in which you go through to become part of the group. These accusations have very little evidence on Kanye therefore I refuse to believe it until more is produced. He is a very talented person and that shouldn't be judged by some unproven statements.
     I'm sure over time the public will forgive Kanye as they always do but it is seriously time for him to start controlling his angry outburst and offensive rants. It is a really bad look to be in the same category as Mel Gibson when it comes to personal control. Kanye is a great producer, musician, and singer but his ego is destroying multiple connections with the fans and are even making him one of the most hated people in the music industry. I am personally a fan and the only thing that I want to say about the situation is that it is getting really hard to get people to like someone who doesn't even give them the opportunity to because he is so superficial. Much Love From My Way Kanye, But Its Never To Late To Change!
