Careful, Kanye. You may not be worried about the Crips, but you better be worried about these types. They're plotting an end to your "show".
The protesters of the 50s wanted to live like “Whites”.
They didn’t fight to be “Black”. They had that already.
This fellow is starting to interest me.
THis was a good observation
“We talk about race so much we don’t even talk about class,” Kanye added. “There’s a class war happening right now too. And the class war is one of the reasons why Trump won because Obama was so high class that it stopped speaking to the lower and the middle class. He’s so classy”
Know nothing about the guy...but if the black vote went from
10 to 30 percent the rats are in trouble...
He meant that living the slavery, reparations and usual cult crap that keeps blacks down is a choice. A choice not to make.
The Democrat party is a cult.
Yes, it is clear that is what he meant. Slavery is long over but some are enslaved in their minds. That is a loser attitude in life.
This guy has legs for sanity.
Hey Kanye we know exactly what you meant.
Every black person I know interpreted West’s remarks the way Maxine Waters did, wrongly. It was so obvious what he was trying to say , yet because it went against the black narrative, he was vilified for it.
Kanye is humanizing every person’s potential, regardless of race. That’s a beautiful thing.
Too late Kanye. I knew that when you first made your statement that you screwed up, saying it the way you said it. The enemy picked it up and broadcast your error far and wide.
Can’t unring that bell.

They know. There will be disagreement between black people on that issue. Most likely, in time, more people will like what the Trump Administration is doing. That’s the trend so far.
When I first heard Kanye’s words, I thought of this...Bob Marley
Redemption Song

Can’t help it - I’m actually starting to like a rapper...wonders never cease.....
Anyone with a brain and without an agenda knew exactly what he meant the first time he said it.
“Trump is a human being also...”
Wow, if Kanye had only said that much, he would have DESTROYED everything the Democrats claim about Trump, and Republicans as a whole.
...but he said much more, obviously.
He meant the slaves should have risen up and overthrown their oppressors. They didn’t, leading him to say that they remained slaves by choice.
I can almost guarantee that he read Booker T. Washington’s book, “Up From Slavery” - a read that should be mandatory for ALL people.
To paraphrase, West can make his own reality but he can't make his own facts.
