Evacuate! Here Comes Hurri-KanyeWest!
The Apocalyptic storm of Katrina was not enough to cause sadness and disruptiveness. Rapper come late 'Kayne' West (actually and for some odd reason - pronounced KAHN-yay) took the DIS-advantaged moment of a somewhat lame NBC hurricane fundraiser to declare...
1) America is set up to take care of the poor & blacks as slow as possible.
2) Troops have been sent into New Orleans to kill black people.
3) GW Bush dosent care about black people.
Mike Myers looked stunned (and thankful that he's Canadian) as well as nervous while Kanye went off like a crazy person who just lost the keys to his gold-plated Hummer. Now personally, I'm not one to say Kanye Kany't speak his mind, I dig freedom of speech, but with that freedom comes responsibility and Kanye dissed that. His timing, the venue he chose and specifically what he had to say will do more harm and damage then any good. He has drawn yet another racial card and thrown it out into the public when it should have never been done. If he feels this way and wants to do something constructive for his people while bashing Bush... well then Kanye, call me, I'm in PR and I also love rap & r&b... I can help you brother - besides we're all in this together anyway, let's act like it...
