then you are missing 90% of the point in rap music! If you want beats and dumb words, go check out MC hammer! I guess Kanye has now backslid into Hammer Time......

I don’t think he’s really doing that but I don’t care.

I’m boycotting Kanye.

No more streams or purchases.

Not after that anti-choice tirade of idiocy.

I want the last, like, 8 years of my music life back.

Kids today have this thing where “Issa vibe” if it’s dumber than shit but is stupidly entertaining and they’re fine with that.

I’ve always prioritized music over lyrics in every genre, but dumb as fuck and not fun is just dumb as fuck and not fun.

The thing is, when artists are dumb as shit, it's usually with a knowing wink. From what I've gathered about this, Kanye is genuinely sliding down the shitter, so 'dumb as shit' won't fly here.

Yeah there’s no knowing wink behind
“Democrats want to separate families and make us have abortions...” (not a lyric, just a dumb-as-shit thing he said that made my soul ache)

Or ... “What are you hearing from the Christians... they’ll be the first ones to judge me. Make me feel like noooobody love me.” (Lyric, and not even one of the worst ones, just — great example of him sounding like an actual child)

Or “praise God you are my chic-fil-a” (or whatever)

Ultimately this is not something I can knowingly support any longer.
I’ll listen to my CDs and LPs when I want to hear the stuff that used to make me happy. This dude isn’t getting another dollar or another stream from my ass.

Last straw.

Kanye West is cracking the culture code.@kanyewest’s new album #JesusIsKing is the epitome of fearless creativity and “dangerous, unapproved” ideas.

Leftists always try to silence those who are speaking truth. They’re waging a war on our family and culture.

Kanye is a pioneer

Sev, I think you are overreacting.

This is a good album. "God Is" is one of Kanye's most beautiful songs ever.. this album sounds very peaceful for the most part and encourages mindfulness even more than ye.

Man, I’m not sure you’re getting it.

It’s not the album I’m mad at. It’s Kanye. (Though let’s be real, this is easily his weakest release because it’s just pretty sounds with absolutely no novel ideas or lyrical weight).

Anyway, what I’m “overreacting” to is that the man is on TV saying democrats “brainwash” people, “make us have abortions,” force people onto welfare and remove fathers from homes.
It’s dangerous, brazenly ignorant horseshit and it’s gone too far for me. I cannot support someone who says shit like that. Cannot and will not.

It’s like the SNL performance only worse and 1 year later. We were told he had reconsidered some of his lies in that year, and that he’d spout no more dumbass “political” rhetoric. But nope! He’s doubling down on it in the name of Our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ.

He’s basically a far-right evangelist at this point, and a moron to boot Fuck that.

Thought you said he's autistic a couple years back, and now you're upset with his childlike mentality..

I do think he’s autistic. Maybe. I mean, he certainly seems to have some ASD characteristics. But that’s not a pass for anyone. That’s not an automatic pass for kids struggling in classes and it’s certainly not and automatic pass for grown men making patently false and potentially dangerous statements about abortion.

I’m not trying to beef with you, man. You don’t live in the U.S., so I don’t know how much you can be expected to understand just how fragile the discourse about Roe V. Wade already is, but you know I’m firmly against spreading false information, and that’s what our boy is doing here.

It’s totally overshadowed his music for me at this point. I’m just glad Kanye 2004-2016 is a thing.

I accept it bro, definitely not interested in arguing either. Just wanted to understand you point of view.

Kanye will be taking his religious grift to the highest grifter in the land, Joel Osteen, of Houston's megachurch Lakewood. PATHETIC.
