Sayin tho

Maybe we'll get a good track out of it tho

He will hold this L for life.

accurate statements

 

[Saya]

Kanye is not soft or sensual enough?

The theme for the inauguration is: "soft sensuality".

 

[Zekes!]

AKA they are afraid that they cannot control him and he goes 'off reservation' during the performance.

A valid concern probably.

"They throwin' hate at me
Want me to stay at ease
Fuck you and your corporation
Y'all niggas can't control me"

 

[Darryl M R]

Kanye you played yourself.

they just called you a nigger to your face

But they wasn't satisfied unless I picked the cotton myself

 

[NH Apache]

Kanye about to drop that new country track.

 

[Guevara]

Time for 808s and Heartbreak volume 2

 

[Rembrandt]

AKA they are afraid that they cannot control him and he goes 'off reservation' during the performance.

A valid concern probably.

That's what I'm thinking. A dumb way of dismissing him, but I feel like the concern was definitely because of his rants.

 

[StarVigil]

I mean, yea ? Realistically speaking, what would one even expect Ye to sing at the inauguration ? Jesus walks ?

Power.

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

 

[BronsonLee]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

Apple pie with Kraft singles on top

 

[Ray Wonder]

Honestly Runaway would be fucking perfect, damn it.

 

[RinsFury]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

White and straight.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

Not nigger music..

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

Starts with a "w" and end with "hite."

 

[KeyBladerXIII]

Typically and Traditionally American? Fuck, I guess it's time to bust out the powdered wigs and chamber music, Trump is taking us to 1776.

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

Nobody knows what counts as traditional in America, but I guess the Republicans want it to be the 50s again.

 

[spindashing]

Kanye you played yourself.

they just called you a nigger to your face

For real. Holy shit.

 

[HStallion]

Not nigger music..

Unless it's sang by Elvis

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

When he showed up to Trump Tower with that Golden Lords hair it was sealed

 

[The Kree]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

Traditionally American means having tear gas and rubber bullets shot at you because you don't want an oil pipeline installed on your land.

 

[Mammoth Jones]

Black people, don't make a fool of yourself thinking you can bridge some gap here. This motherfucker just uses the photo-op as a distraction, and wants you either working the elevator or out of his fucking building.

Yup. That's America in general.

 

[Ray Wonder]

Hip hop is more american than rock is tbh

 

[Raylan Targaryen]

Apple pie with Kraft singles on top

the most horrifying image ever

 

[Lulubop]

I hope Kanye gets pissed and turns his back on Trump and the Trump Administration. Kanye is better than taking this shit.

Ye already clowned himself reppin Trump

Now Trump is giving him another L.

 

[LiK]

Hip hop is more american than rock is tbh

this is true

 

[4 is a cutie]

Honestly Runaway would be fucking perfect, damn it.

24/7, 365
Pussy (grabbing) stays on my mind
I-I-I-I did it, all right, all right, I admit it

 

[zero_suit]

Unless it's played by Elvis

Damn!!

 

[GravityInsanity]

Kanye West not “traditionally American” enough for Trump inauguration

 

[kmax]

Translation: He's black so the racist fucks won't enjoy the show.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Kanye you played yourself.

they just called you a nigger to your face

goddamn. and its so true

 

[Lkr]

what's a black beetle anyway?
a fucking roach
i guess that's why they got me sittin' in fuckin' coach

 

[Dan]

"He's been great, he considers himself a friend of the president-elect, but it's not the venue."

What a strange comment... for this Trump spokesman to speak on the 'relationship' from Kanye's perspective.

 

[Ray Wonder]

Holy shit, it's even more perfect than I originally thought hahaha

 

[WhateverItTakes]

I hope Kanye gets pissed and turns his back on Trump and the Trump Administration. Kanye is better than taking this shit.

This is what I hope

Ye already clowned himself reppin Trump

Now Trump is giving him another L.

But this is also true. Hopefully this L gives him time to think over who he really think Trump and his admin are.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Black people, don't make a fool of yourself thinking you can bridge some gap here. This motherfucker just uses the photo-op as a distraction, and wants you either working the elevator or out of his fucking building.

Kanye wasn't trying to bridge some gap. He was just wanting attention and for Trump to the the Fed to take care of those assassins Jay-Z keeps sending after him.

 

[RedAssedApe]

maybe some black artist should agree to perform now

 

[SliceSabre]

"Black people in MY America? I think not!!!"

Did you have fun doing your dance and then coming out looking like a fool Kanye? Fucking clown.

 

[Ganzlinger]

I don't know who is supposed to perform but I don't think this has anything to do with his race. Kanye's music isn't really suitable for this kind of event. I doubt they would say the same to B. B. King, Stevie Wonder or other black musician that usually have more respectful lyrics.

Kanye is the kind of guy who sings stuff like "I impregnated her mouth". Can't really blame Trump's staff here.

 

[TheOohChild]

I bet Kanye could have done a hot rendition of "God Bless America"

 

[Iksenpets]

this is true

"True" I feel like actually understates how overwhelmingly obvious that fact should be to anyone who doesn't define "American" as "white".

 

[nortonff]

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Trump's base hate Kanye.
Liberals laugh at Kanye.
LOL Kanye

 

[Zekes!]

What actually is traditionally American. I don't even know what the definition is

[hidys]

Hip hop is more american than rock is tbh

Is there even a genre of music more American than hip-hop?

EDIT: Jazz. Of course I'm an idiot.

 

[shadow_shogun]

"He considers himself a friend of the president elect"Damn, cold blooded.

 

[kai3345]

Kanye you played yourself.

they just called you a nigger to your face

yup. they're barely even trying to hide it anymore

 

[Ray Wonder]

Is there even a genre of music more American than hip-hop?

No, I believe not.

 

[zeioIIDX]

Apple pie with Kraft singles on top

Okay Travis Bickle, lol.

 

[Slayven]

"He's been great, he considers himself a friend of the president-elect, but it's not the venue."

What a strange comment... for this Trump spokesman to speak on the 'relationship' from Kanye's perspective.

It was right, Kanye thinks he is a friend of Trump's. Trump only calls when he needs a black friend

 

[Camper Van Beethoven]

I like how people are pretending Kanye Weat rapping about eating out Asian girls is something that fits the theme of an inauguration and not asking him to come is racism

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

maybe some black artist should agree to perform now

Not when Snoop is watching ��

I like how people are pretending Kanye Weat rapping about eating out Asian girls is something that fits the theme of an inauguration and not asking him to come is racism

I like how you assume its impossible to perform a censored rap song or choose something more tonally appropriate.
