    i was so proud of this young man today for helping his struggling brother with post traumatic stress on MTV today. Keep up the good work Kanye. Go back to your fiance and make a future with her.

    your mother would not be happy with you in the world alone. she’d want you to have a wife to take care of you and to see the future in your son’s eyes, so that you won’t look back on the past.

    @ 34,

    I 100% agree. But I think that a lot of black people feel as though they can sit there unemployed asses down and keep dreaming about being rich without doing anything about it. They sell drugs, murder and do plenty of other things and expect everything to be OKAY with their lives. They want to be rich yet they don’t go to school, and drop out of college. But now they’re crying to Obama wanting him to just poor money on them yet they don’t try and help themselves while all the rich people actually got off their lazy asses to do something in life but we will be charged more because we make more. I don’t think it is fair. I know plenty of people who claim they’re going to be rich when they get older yet they dropped out of college and my younger friends claim they’re not going to college, so I’m like how will you be rich, if you have no education? I mean, you can be a rapper or something but what if that doesn’t take off like you planned, then what? I know that some people have better opportunities, but a lot of black people just keep finding excuses why they’re poor….you can change that. And then the teenage girls are getting pregnant younger and younger, yet they claim they cant afford anything. Then why did you have a baby? I know it doesn’t apply to all and only black people but it does apply to a lot of them.

    I actually like the scruffy look.

    And Im not mad at him opening a fastfood restaraunt. The restaraunts aren’t the problem, it’s the people that abuse it.

  6. Love Jazmine!

    This new look is not working. U lookn a lil down and out. He needs a shave and tape IMMEDIATELY!!! This is what his mugshot shuld look like. Not his everyday look. In a min, ima stop lookn up style ideas from u. Get it togethe, K. West!!!

    Tabby, Greatestloveofall & Naomi T have all of my respect!

    What people need to realize is that everyone cannot be Jay-Z, Kanye West, Lil’ Wanye, Ludacris etc. Everybody cannot be Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson etc.(you get the point) they need to stop looking for handouts and get they triffling asses off the couch, stop watching BET, living on welfare, poppin’ out kids at 15, having 2 and 3 kids and they not even 25, selling drugs, gettin’ high allllll day, robbing, killing etc. Pick up a book and go to school- I grew up in the hood, Brooklyn to be exact and if I could do it anybody could do it. I cannot see myself graduating from college and going back to the hood and raising kids there. And with these black celebs giving black people a false sense of hope don’t make it no better.

    Stop looking to Obama as your savior- he’s not running for the president of all black americans- he’s running for the president of the United States!

    Kanye=Drama

    Ok granted he lost his mother and his girl but come on we all know Kanye is all dramtics

    Also Kanye opening up Fatburger restaurants=More fat black americans=Increase in diabetes, cancer, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure etc.

  9. dj cali panamami

    #3: yeah i must agree…why the need for MORE fatburger joints?! why not a jamba juice?! or get into a chain of health food stores such as whole foods?! you’re just helping to chew into the stereotypes of overweight black people- better yet americans period. we’re already apart of the top 10 fattest nations.

    [gives #67 a hi-five]

    but anyways…enough ranting…
    gotta love a man that shops @ trader joe’s though!

    hey kanye: wanna share a bottle of $2 buck chuck?! lol

    Why is my comment still awaiting moderation?? I posted that yesterday. You guys kill me with this moderation business. If we aren’t disrepecting the CL staff or using foul language then our comments should not be moderated.

  12. N.O._Finest

    `Ye looks like he’s getting ready for a quest to Mother Africa!!! LOL

  13. likebuttaBABY

    My baby Kanye!!! I love him and everything he does, even the facial hair ….kinda sexy to me. I don’t think he stuntin on Alexis tho, he prolly just tryin somethin diff and its all in the makin.

    Congratulations on the franchise opportunity _ Englewood 63rd Chi town baby hope to see you there!

  14. Just Jazzi

    Poor Kanye . . . . Every since his mother died he hasn’t been the same . . . He’s lost weight, he looks rough around the edges, and the poor thing wears sweaters even in the summer!

  15. STLCHICK

    Poor Kanye. I hope things continue to look up for him. He “lost the only chick in the world that knew him best.” Be that his Momma or Alexis he just looks sad. I love him too. *Sigh*

  16. Mr.Martinez

    damn the damier looks sick in white!

  17. sunofmoon22

    I feel I must address this because, like another poster has stated we as black people tend to find excuses for our actions. How is opening a fast food joint
    hurting black america? I mean how hard is it to diet, exercise, and eat balanced
    nutritional meal, I mean noone put a gun to your head and made you continously
    clog your arteries, and you should have the common enough sense to know when you need worry about your health, just like with drinking and smoking!

    As for the comments on how kanye spends his money, thats with all celebrities,
    white,black,etc. people spend money frivolously simply because they have it,
    just look at some of these celebrities with over 10 different homes, a garage full
    of cars they will not drive, some even buy islands, hugh heffner basically has
    a whorehouse, and he is white, so lets not bash just our own black people!

    One more thing, lets take a look back when the xbox 360, playstation3, the wii,
    and the psp came out, and imagine how many people black,white,etc were set
    back trying to buy these rascals for their kids, so again lets not bash our own
    about making theirs when america in general does it 24/7!

    You have very valid points but either way I feel black people do it more.

  19. Myra

  20. Good lord shave that shit. Cut it off, Nair it, buzz it, do something.

    @ Comment # 77

    I couldn’t agree more, everything you said was exactly what I came in here to post. And can we please give these black celebrities a pat on the back for actually attempting to enter the business world. Everybody doesn’t have the business acumen of a Donald Trump or a Bob Johnson you have to start somewhere, and opening up your own chain of restaurants is a good place to begin. I don’t see why people are so intent on bashing their own at any chance they get. A guy tries to do something positive and financially responsible like opening up a restaurant and he gets blasted for it, SMH.
