The artist formerly known as Kanye West seems to be seeking out a legacy as a racist hatemonger. Let him have it. (via thereidout Blog)
At that age and maturity level, petulant whining can sound revolutionary. But then, ideally, you grow up.
That’s certainly my story. And that maturity is pretty enlightening during the innumerable instances in which West, who formally changed his name tolast year, clamors for the public’s attention in deplorable ways. I have too much self-esteem to idolize Ye because I do not respect him creatively or intellectually.
That struck a chord with me because it speaks to a belief I'll hold until the end of my days: Ye's legacy of racist hatemongering will deservedly eclipse his legacy as an artist.
