@djprotoj whats going on? When was this aha
Back when the Taylor Swift thing happened, he made this super lame, emotional video, saying Kanye was a bad person and he was selling all his Kanye related shoes. And he did, he sold all of them on eBay.
Later, when the hype started rolling again, and it seemed like the world had forgiven him, when it became cool to like him again, this lil gremlin deleted the video and bought all the shoes again. So to see him on IG now, acting like Ye's so amazing again, it's pretty lame.
Yeah, Ye was rude, but he was also hammered drunk, and he was right. Award shows are so rigged, and dude was tired of it, and just spoke out cuz nobody else will. What's crazy is it brought out the worst in people, people were on twitter calling him the N word. Far worse than being rude to a lil girl over an award. The funny thing is, if it was a black girl he did that to, and not some corny lil blue eyed white girl country singer, the same people wouldn't have cared. He did the same thing at the UK awards several years ago when Justin Timberlake lost album of the year. He stuck up for the white guy and said he deserved album of the year. I don't think it was ever about race to Ye, but about art.
I used to never clown on Fran, I let people live, and don't join in on the hate, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, and often stick up for the underdog. Especially since Fran seemed to really love sneakers and got a lot of BS hate. But when he did that I realized he was just another sheep, and the worst kind. End of the day, the designer of the shoe or person it's based around shouldn't matter if you really like the shoe itself. There are a million stories out there of Michael Jordan being super rude to tons of people, but I couldn't care less, I like the shoes, and what he did on the court, I'm not here to judge his character, nor am I buying his product cuz of character. What if the guy who made the socks you wear is a rude guy? You don't care about that, so why base shoes off it?
Ok, big deal, Kanye has an ego, is cocky a lil bit, and can be rude and all out of pocket. But so what? Most rappers are ego maniacs. Why does Hov get a pass for comparing himself to greats like Picasso but Ye can't?.... Also being a producer and fashion designer, I think he is also justified. I just think it's lame to be all up on his sack one minute, and then sell him out the next cuz it's the cool thing to do, cuz he was rude to somebody. Like all the positive contributions he's made to the world are all the sudden out the window over one dumb thing... Fran is a herb for that, IMO.
