i think because he's an honest outspoken black man.Black americans want their celebrities to stay "cool" all the time. White americans want black celebrities to be "safe" and watch their words. Ye is neither but is to o talented to not be on their radar.
Sometimes I think Kanye is just fukking with this country. Essentially hes giving middle America its worst nightmare.

whats interesting is it seems like the more credibility Kanye establishes, the more hated he is

When he was just a pop star, mainstream america was like " ok this person is a fukking idiot"

But since then his credibility has been increasing consistently. Popular magazines have done features on the brilliance of Kanye, and he gets rave reviews

Now its more like "oh my God this man challenges my perspective on a number of things! Hes crazy! hes just a crazy person, I wish he would go away"

This is exactly what ive been saying.
Im not surprised about white folks not liking Kanye....but black people? Really?

yea he's a little extra, but what great artist isnt?
If Prince came out right now this board wouldnt even give his music a chance.

Americans HATE people who give zero fukks, especially rich people.

Top it off with the fact that he's black? Boom. Kanye takes outspoken to a whole other level AND he doesn't give a fukk.

He literally doesn't give a fukk what anyone thinks unless it directly fukks with his money. That's why he did the apology thing on the Today show.

Plus this country is addicted to celebrities

Yes you did.

JayZ conforms to most of those traits and the media and the people love him.

From rich JayZ to small income Dead Prez America loves these people.
from top to bottom.

so why doesnt jay get the same hate?

could it be that jay z acts like a man..? instead of a pms'in bytch about every little thing


Yeah, if acting like a man means acting like a house negro. Sean Carter somewhere giving Bill Gates a pedicure asking about going in on an investment in fast food and liquor stores.
