Kanye West Thinks Gay People Who Dress Well Should Be Respected
This video was posted on 50cent.livejournal.com yesterday with the title "Kanye West Gets His Style From Gays" and a flashing EXCLUSIVE GIF. Well played, 50 Cent. Total burn. You got the magic zing. Take me to the candy zing. What?
The video itself has to be pretty old, not only because Kanye looks young, but also because what is that closet? I don't know how many beats he had to make for three summers to get an apartment with closets like that, but I'm guessing negative seven beats.
But what's insane is that while 50 Cent wanted to score some major burnage with his EXCLUSIVE GIF about Kanye taking fashion cues from the gay community, the actual genuinely kind of distressing part of the video is when Kanye suggests that SOME gays should not be discriminated against because they have really good style that you can bite off of. There we go. He's like the black Milk. Shut up, Kanye. But also, obviously, shut up, 50 Cent. For one thing, anyone who doesn't dress like THIS is getting their style from the gays. Second of all, anyone who BUYS THE RIGHTS to his EX-LOVER'S LIFE STORY to keep her from writing a TELL-ALL ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP is hiding some serious backdoor DL business. The gay pot shouldn't throw stones at the gay kettle's glass piano bar or whatever.

that's a different world, like 3 summers.
Score = 0
50 Cent is the douchiest cunt. Puke.
And Kanye is clearly very uncomfortable talking about the gays he loves, but I think he made that slightly discriminatory comment because of the homophobia in the hip-hop community. I mean, as sad as it is to say, THAT's a start.
In a recent show, he actually talked about how discrimination against gays has to end, etc.
But really, his uncomfortable expression during that video reminded me of when I was a young very-closeted gay, who couldn't talk about my respect for gay people without using discriminatory explanations as to why I had that respect. There's long been talk of Kanye's possible homosexuality, but at least he's trying to do something (recently) to convince the rap kids to not hate us.
Score = 6
I really agree with this.

Yes, Kanye and 50 cent should in fact shut up. Whats sad is that people somewhere are going Ohhhh, Kanye dresses like a gay!!!! SLAM!!!! obviously one of these people is 50 cent. idiot.
Score = 1
if 50 cent doesn't like Kanye's style, then how come he was all preppy dressed on Letterman the other night? Methinks he's jealous that Kanye has reshaped hip hop away from being shot at and slapping hos and now he has to get a "new image" to be relevant.
Score = 3
To me that came off less "uncomfortable" and more "blithering idiot." That's not even a commentary on the absurd view-point of gay people. For someone who can present words fluidly to music (arguable, yes) he talks like a big dummy. This has made me sad.
Score = -1
