Kanye West “Coldest Winter” Music Video

Kanye West “Coldest Winter” Music Video

Kanye West has debuted the music video for his new single “Coldest Winter.” The song is off of his 2008 album, “808’s & Heartbreak.” The music video was directed by Nabil Elderkin.

Nabil said of the video, “It’s pretty minimalistic. It’s slow and very visual. I just wanted to catch the vibe of the song and not get too literal. Because the lyrics are very close to Kanye and go much deeper than the video goes, obviously hearing the song you… More »

Kanye West Is Not Dead, Just Crazy

Kanye West Is Not Dead, Just Crazy

Kanye West is a lot of things but he’s not dead.  Rumors have been circulating that the rapper had perished in a car accident but his girlfriend, Amber Rose, has said that these reports are not true.

The whole thing started after a fraudulent website made it look like Fox News was saying Kanye had died in a “bizarre car crash in Los Angeles.”  The site has since been taken down.

I’m guessing this ridiculousness got started after people say that insane… More »

Kanye West Cancels Tour

Kanye West Cancels Tour

There has been all kinds of speculation about this but Kanye West has officially cancelled his tour.  Organizer, Live Nation, made the announcement this morning.  I can’t say that I’m totally surprised but I’m actually a little worried.

After he stormed the stage at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when he felt Beyoncé should have won for “Single Ladies” instead of Taylor Swift, he stole the moment from the young singer and has been out of favor with… More »

Drake Turns Down Kanye West

Drake Turns Down Kanye West

I know that many people can appreciate some hot looking ladies running around in very skimpy basketball uniforms but that doesn’t mean it makes a great video.  Apparently, Canadian rapper, Drake, didn’t care if people thought it was cheesy (or lame, lazy, offensive, etc…) – he claims he was just trying to be funny.

According to MTV, Kanye West offered to shoot another video for the single “Best I Ever Had” but Drake actually turned him down.  “That career move was… More »

Kanye West “The Michael Jordan of Rap”

Kanye West âThe Michael Jordan of Rapâ

After South Park made fun of Kanye West, the notoriously egotistical rapper had the following to say (in all caps, so I thought he might actually mean it): “I ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY EGO THOUGH. HAVING THE CRAZY EGO IS PLAYED OUT AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE AND CAREER.”

I knew that wouldn’t last long.  West is back in the studio working on his new music so some self-absorbed rambling is to be expected.  MTV reports that he… More »

South Park Takes on Kanye West

South Park Takes on Kanye West

Rapper, Kanye West, was parodied (and mocked) on a recent episode of South Park but he’s taking it in stride.

Jimmy (and Cartman, I guess) come up with a joke and it causes all sorts of trouble.  The joke teller asks someone “do you like fish sticks?”  The person then says “yes” and is then immediately told “then you’re a gay fish.”  Fish sticks sounds like “fish d*cks” so if you like them (and admit to enjoying having them in your… More »
