Eh

Dead wrong on NBA, couldn’t be more wrong

As far as music contracts, royalties etc

Those artists willingly sign those deals.
I’m well aware there has always been shady practices by music managers and unfair deals, but the artists are not forced into it, and those with real talent are still becoming millionaires.

Maybe “slave ships” isn’t the best metaphor, but I agree with the essence of his comment.

If Michael Bennett gets applauded by the left for calling the NFL a slave ship how can they argue when Kanye says the same thing? Oh that’s right Bennett is a lefty and a Kanye isn’t.

I like Kanye. But ...

... “his people” aren’t enslaved.
... his life is not on the line.
... the music industry and NBA are supported by people just like him daily.
... and he certainly isn’t a new prophet of Abrahamic religions.

But I admire his passion.

Wait, why are most people on this board upvoting this and supporting Kanye? Aren’t most of you Christians? He’s literally calling himself a prophet and Moses. But this must be owning the libs somehow.

To think every conservative is a devout Christian or that true Christians would judge him anyway just shows extreme ignorance.

They’re currently living apart.
So someone else is going to have to be the Rx dispensary.

I don’t think it’s “owning the libs.”
I‘m of the opinion that he genuinely believes what he says.
I think he means well; he just needs some support.
