Kanye's gives a thumbs-up to illiteracy

This may explain why he's starting to sound more and more like Buckwheat when he raps. He's stoopit!

This is why I always say....stop listening to artists talk. Let their work speak for them. Your favorite artist has opinions and thoughts just as dumb as Kanye's, believe me.

No, I don't think I've ever seen a popular artist be quite this aggressively stupid.

Hm...I'm pretty sure if you named a favorite artist, I can find a retarded quote to go along with him/her.

I dismiss most of what I hear from West. Dude is just a publicity whore.

There's levels, Rick. I'm sure you could find some retarded quote from just about anybody, but this guy goes beyond the pale on an almost weekly basis. If it's just an act, then good for him for making people believe he's a moron.

If he hadn't gone completely down the shitter as an artist, maybe I'd be less critical of what he says.

Kanye West was a better rapper when his jaw was wired shut and Rhymefest was writing his lyrics for him. And even then he wasn't great. He was, however, one of the few rappers with more to discuss than cars, clothes, drugs and women....

Then some idiot gave the fool a grammy and it's been all downhill from there.

Medical experts should really be consulted, as that swelling of the head might actually be long term after affects of the car crash that started his career as a frontman in the first place.

To his credit, he's one hell of a video director...
