Kanye West Rant : I Ain't Michael Jackson Motherf**ker !
Someone is telling Kanye West how to fix his public image, and he does NOT appreciate it!
The Yeezus star took the stage in El Lay on Monday night and used the opportunity to express some serious frustration!
Kanye implied in a lengthy diatribe that he was fighting a public image war with his handlers and decided to set the record straight just what kind of celebrity he wanted to be. He said:
"They say, they don't agree with the way that I be doing my interviews. They don't agree with my self-confidence.
"They said, 'Michael Jackson would never do nothing like that', I said I ain't Michael Jacksonmother****er! Richard Pryor woulda did it. Muhammad Ali woulda did it. Malcolm X woulda did it. Mandela woulda did
The first bit of truth he has uttered in a LONG time
Remember when Kanye compared himself to MJ and Steve Jobs just COUPLE of months ago ?
A Comparison to Michael Jackson, Steve Jobs, Jesus or All Three - “I’ve got to a point that Michael Jackson did not break down. I have reached the glass ceiling, as a creative person, as a celebrity and I’ve been at it for 10 years,” he added in that BBC interview. He also told the NY Times, “I think what Kanye West is going to mean is something similar to what Steve Jobs means. I am undoubtedly, you know, Steve of Internet, downtown, fashion, culture. Period.” Finally, in his latest album “Yeezus,” Kanye takes his humbleness to a new level. When rapping about Jesus Christ, he says, “I know he’s the most high, but I am a close high.”
Like... don't even compare yourself to that man you silly little bitch. You wouldn't be up on that stage if it weren't for him.
If it is too hard for people to comprehend what he's saying.
Michael Jackson G.O.A.T. broke countless racial barriers. Kanye is saying he's at a point of production where Michael Jackson didn't have the luxury of thinking about and they refuse to give him the resources, most likely because he's black. But he hasn't helped his cause, Taylor Swift incident, "President Bush doesn't care about Black People", Dating/Impregnating/Proposing to Kim Kardashian.
People use all of those thing against him, but he's a free man why can't he say what he wants and still get endorsements and backing from industry heavyweights, the man is a walking international brand.
He might get annoying sometimes, but the media do to much on him, kinda racist to be honest
so if a white person was this much of an arrogant, narcissistic asshole all the time they would not be hated as much as he is? I'm not trying to say you're wrong I am just trying to figure out if I agree that it must be racism. I know I hate his personality but I don't think that makes me racist, I just don't like anyone who is that cocky or in your face. I remember the first time I started to notice his extreme narcissism was some awards show a really long time ago where he said he was going to be Elvis or something.

You don't have Idols? What's wrong with him wanting to be like his Idols.? Or maybe he should only want to be Tupac or Biggie, A Pimp, or A Thief?
What are you trying to say?
If he's proved himself to be the best at what he does why can't he be mad that no one is giving him a chance to branch out.
are you for real? grow up and stop putting words in my mouth
my point is that he should wait until people say these things about him, not say them about himself all the time. But that's just my opinion.
He can say what ever he wants, he's an American.
And I was just kee-ing with the Tupac/Pimp thing. But that's how it seems to him, make a shirt but stay in that box, he just doesn't want to be put in a box and he's lashing out for attention.
I was trying to think of a good example of this but I can't. Eminem maybe? But Eminem isn't as in your face or vocal as Kanye.
the "Chris Brown bragging about losing his virginity at 8, what an asshole" angle the media chose to market a story essentially about him being raped at 8 is probably a really obvious and recent one
even if Em or whatever celebrity was this fkn arrogant,and just saying stupid **** all the time,people/media would STILL calling that person out.like srysl Kanye is getting to the point where he's a more fame ***** then his GF.they're truly made for each other
