Kanye West

[bigragu]

Well that wasn't the only reason Majesty....to DEMAND an award is pretty shiesty IMO and he acted like a brat.

I mean compare that to Biggy and Tupac saying they were going to shoot each other....it's pretty F****** lame for hip hop/rap....pretty lame




I don't want this to be a big race issue it's more of an issue of "Kanye West, although a good 'artist' acts like an idiot"....if anyone else did something that stupid I'd post something about them....see the John Kerry thread.

kinda like what P Diddy (If that's what he's going by now) did.....He refused to be an award giver unless they gave him an award...so they did....It was crazy....I can't remember which one it was but it did happen!!!!

As far as I am concerned, minorities in general have it pretty F****** good in this world, and by world i'll stick to North America, They make it easier for them to get into college, etc.

I love his song about getting degree's and how they are just paper, well you know what, Phil Knight probably went to school, got those "useless" degrees,now he get's to sign those checks that go to Micheal and friends, so I think Kanye is old news, I am hoping we all get out of this, I was a poor black kid selling drungs since age 7, F*** you, go educate yourself, Kanye was cool in my books, but now he is just a dumb rapper to me,

What Kanye says is the same thing Dr Dre said and Muhammad Ali sad in a different way. You gonna diss Dre and Ali too?

Remember when Ali said "A gold medal don't get you the front of a restaurant in Louisville"

Same S***. You gonna diss Ali now?

Degrees are just paper

means the same thing.

Degrees don't say anything about you as someone other then you got through college and whats it show? Many people got degrees and aint doin S*** with their life.

Kanye says degrees are just papers means it only means something to you but to others its just a sheet of paper and you need more going for you then a paper that just said you graduated.

Just as Ali means you need more going for you then a medal around your neck that said you won the Olympics.

Hope you get that.


In NO WAY is Kanye saying not to educate yourself

He's sayin that it takes more then a diploma to be "educated"

he's talking about knowledge of life. You aint see that?

maybe because it each means different meanings. You just happened to take it the worst possible way and didn't get his message at all.

What I am saying is that, yes degrees do mean something, they surely do not mean shit as you would say, maybe not in th eboxing world, or the rap world, becasue in those two fields you can be dumb as shit and still succeed,

What kind of message does that send to some kids listening to his album? Aw you know i could stay in school, but Kanye said degrees don't mean shit.

Fact is a degree will help you in life, it will get you better job, which will get you more money, and it goes on...

I'll be happy as shit when I get my degree, and im sure there are plenty of business men, women, CEO etc. that love the fact that they don't get any attention from the public, and still get to have a nice ass house, tons of money.

Degrees don't mean shit, well the CEO of Four Seasons can now give you 300 million reason's why he loves his degree,

Degrees don't mean shit is only said by those that don't have degree, aka Ali and Dr.Dre, and now Kanye
