"I am not a fan of books. I would never want a book's autograph." --Kanye West
How does the self-professed "proud non-reader" expect to sell his (you guessed it) book, 'Thank You and You're Welcome,' with slander like this? Also, a book's autograph? Really, Kanye?

gay fish?
jfior7at 6-02-2009
He is not a gay fish, why does everyone think he is a gay fish
spiffyfaeriesat 6-02-2009
LOL.. he is a gay fish! lol
I've heard of him, heard his music. I think he's an idiot with a huge ego problem. He is not the s***. He's a musician with some fans. Let them buy his book. I will be passing.

Kanye can explain the gay fish thing to you as soon as he figures it out,He didn`t get it either.

just proves stardom makes some people retarded...then again i think he was born stupid!

I'd say his ignorance has been perfectly explained!!! If you don't read then you learn NOTHING -- except what you learn watching TV. Perfect explanation for his ego and ignorance... too much MTV. LOL

It's not fair to equate stupidity with being retarded. Most developmentally disabled people have considerably more decency and intelligence than this man has.

wow... just wow. Personally there are many " books autographs" that I would like. His book not being one of them.

I agree with you!

I've never heard of this person. Not surprising as I would never be interested in a person so obviously stupid. Probably can't read and certainly had to have someone interview him to even write the book he now markets.

You never heard of Kanye? I guess you live under a rock.
lilnomadic1at 5-30-2009
I've only "heard" of him can't say as I heard his work
and no "teacher4life79" not hearing of someone does not mean you live under a rock it could mean between your work family ,reading,taking care of things you simply don't have time or simply don't care to know of such things or have heard of them and did not find them important enough or entertaining enough to remember...
I'm going with the latter..

I've heard of him and actually had a chance to see him on TV once. I figured, "This ought to be pretty good, he is pretty well known and, so, must have talent"
About 2 minutes later, I realized he is hopelessly untalented and pretty boring to boot. I turned the channel.

Ever hear of Beyonce Knowles? She's a slightly popular singer who is also married to a slightly popular rap artist named Jay-Z. Ever heard of him? Well, probably not. Kanye produced many of Jay-Z's songs and is now a rap artist in his own right. But, of course, you don't care about rap right?

Dummy!

Wow! Who and what is this creature? I guess the saddest part is that someone so ignorant can apparently achieve "stardom" in what we used to call "the arts".

A quote like this one can only originate from someone who has not enjoyed reading. As an English teacher for our deprived kids in the public school system, I am amazed at the level of English of my students.
It serves no useful purpose to have a celebrity like Kanye denigrate the excitement of reading. One of my smarter 6th graders told me, 'Reading is like having your own TV in your head'. Out of the mouths of babes come wisdom. Too bad I cannot say the same thing about Kanye's mouth.

dude, so true. reading is one of the greatest things kids can do. it enlightens the mind and soothes the soul. word up to all english teachers.
