LISTEN UP SQUID-BRAINS
I thought I’d end my atrocious non-blogging streak by talking about something music-related, blog-related, and of paramount importance to America’s youth today.
This is the work of the self-proclaimed (and who could argue?) “voice of this generation.”
"I DON’T HAVE GREY IN MY BEARD IN REAL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’M ALL DOWN WITH BEINGS IN MY 30’S BUT DAAAAAAAAMN!!!! THIS IS SOME BENJAMIN BUTTON’S SH**!” -Kanye West
The top 3 reasons you should be reading this icon’s candid and thoughtful discourse, after the jump…
1. If caps lock is cruise control for cool, exclamation points are the giant cloud of dust the cool-mobile leaves behind as it speeds away:
“I’M TYPING IN ALL CAPS CAUSE I’M LAZY NOT ANGRY!!! OH, AND EXCLAMATION POINTS ARE FUN! HAHAHAAA!!!” – Kanye West
“PEARL JAM ENDED ONE HOUR LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT THAT POINT WE’RE RACING AGAINST THE SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” – Kanye West
2. Kanye doesn’t mess around:
“Call me any name you want…. arrogant, conceited, narcissistic, racist, metro, f** whatever you can think of…. BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN’T GIVE MY ALL! NEVER SAY I DIDN’T GIVE MY ALL! THIS SHOWS NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO BE GOOD AT SOMETHING THERE WILL BE PEOPLE THERE TO LIE ABOUT YOU AND BRING YOU DOWN! LIKE WAYNE SAYS PLEASE DON’T SHOOT ME DOWN CAUSE I’M FLYING!” – Kanye West
“IT’S NOT CALLED THE GLOW IN THE DARK TOUR FOR NO REASON SQUID BRAINS!” – Kanye West
3. If the passion and wisdom don’t get you, Kanye’s more playful, humorous side will:
“‘I’m still the greatest!!!’ lol!!” – Kanye West
