Kanye West is a moron. So, no, I didn’t read your article.

I find Kanye obnoxious and insufferable. But if he leads one person to God, good for him. If he is mocking God, well God will take care of that.
“There’s only two things on my mind when I create: God, and Jesus.”
Sure, Kanye. Lyrics to the songs on his new album:

I saw nothing safe to post on FR, so you’ll have to visit the site.
If he’s found Christ, then we kill the fatted calf and have a feast. Seriously.
Every found soul. Every one.
Because the issue with many lifelong Christians is that they confuse being saved with being perfect. The truth is, the bulk are a$$holes standing between God and the people He’s hoping come back to Him.
Jesus,I have never seen so many people so quick to judge a guy and his relationship to Christ. All he was doing was praising Him and everyone wants to tear him down.
Ok. Drinking my second cup of coffee and thought, “I’ll give this guy WEst a listen.” To be honest I haven’t bothered to since his name came up on the scene at the Grammy’s or wherever it was...a few years ago...when he upstaged someone truly deserving...
So I listened to this new album....and I listened some more, or better to say that I tried to listen some more.
I consider myself a lover of good music. Just like Louis Armstrong when asked what was his favorite music... he responded, “Only two kinds of music in the world, good music and bad music. like good music.”
On the other hand, I have this theory. If you’re a professional musician on the AMerican music scene...you have to be good and entertaining...I mean Bruce Springsteen, who has the absolute worst voice of anyone, is probably great in concert in a small bar in Philly. So, who am I to judge someone like Kenye West...?
Folks...This is bad music. This is music that won’t be remotely thought of five or ten years from now. This is music that has no melody. This is music you can’t whistle to. Irving BErlin, Cole Porter it is not. Not close. It is as gimmicky and fake as the guy’s new wife...
I’m rather glad, that I haven’t wasted more than a few minutes on this man’s music before today. THe idea that this guy is as popular as he is... and has money that he can squander...on renting a baseball stadium, and a 15 carrot ring speaks volumes about the culture in our society...and what it teaches our young. When I was young, it was the James Bond syndrome....meaning, James Bond can have anything....without effort.
So now, it’s the Kenye West Syndrome. I’m young, and I can have it without working for it. Like having a field day buying spree in Walmart when the food stamp cards crash...on Walmart’s dime.
This is the Kenye West syndrome. It’s there for free. No one pays...I’m scamming you...and you can scam the next person.
“Don’t have any money on me now....All these bi*ches around me now....All want something from me now....etc etc....”
Bad music plain and simple.
