Kanye West has been making the news lately after demanding Mark Zuckerberg and others to invest millions in his music. Like moths to a light, threads and articles pop up all over the internet calling him a douche bag. I read these articles, and it makes me think about Kanye and that I used to listen to his music sometimes and it's actually pretty good, so now I'm listening to kanye (My beautiful dark twisted fantasy album). All the people thinking they are putting Kanye down are actually making him more popular.

The same thing happened when everyone was crying about Chick Fila and their non support of gay marriage. I rarely eat there, but hearing about Chick Fila all the time in the news made me hungry for a god damn chicken sandwich. And all that negativity made their sales soar for a while.

As they say, all publicity is good publicity. And Kanye has a new album coming out, so this is no shocker.

Chick Fil A isn't constantly begging for attention though.

I don't know how or why, but that analogy just works.

I'm hoping he has developed some mental disorder. Fingers crossed he is suicidal!

I'm not acting as if this is a groundbreaking idea, but this managed to evade all the people who think they are bringing Kanye West down by talking about how much he sucks

Well you're right, all publicity is good. The public can't help it, it's human nature to talk about someone that is a shitty human being like him. Integrity is a dying trait unfortunately

Difference is that CFA is not seeking the publicity.

Crazy KW is asking for attention.

Neither one will hand me a chicken sandwich and some waffle fries on a Sunday.

Interesting point. Earlier today, I watched the trailer for the new Pee Wee Herman film debuting on Netflix in March. Later, for lunch I ordered a Paul Reubens sandwich.

Coincidence?

You must be one of the mindless sheep that buys everything you see in commercials.

"No publicity is bad publicity" has been around for decades. Kanye is just doing the modern version of this with a splash of Kardashian whoring/attention whoring.
