Kanye West Thinks Blogger Critics Don't Understand 'Modern Day Caste System'

Posted by J.R. Taylor at 12:17 PM



Kanye's fur: a cultural thing?Kanye West and Amber Rose toured Paris' couture fashion week in an array of interesting ensembles, from floor-length fur coats (both), velvet blazers (he), and giant gold Chanel slankets (she). One would think any person willing to step out in such finery would be immune to criticism, but it appears that is not the case: Kanye West wants you to understand that he is being a revolutionary and you just don't get it.

West posted yet another all-caps rant this week that includes the following excerpts:
  • I'M BRIEFLY SADDENED BY NEGATIVE COMMENTS, BUT I HAVE TO REMEMBER THOSE PEOPLE ARE SCARED, INCAPABLE OR JUST PLAIN IDIOTS. WE ARE THE F**KING ROCK STARS BABY.
  • IT'S FUNNY TO ME WHEN FASHION BLOGGERS DOWN OUR OUFITS AND THEN SUPER JOCK OUTLANDISH S**T ON THE RUNWAY BUT THEN THEY DRESS MAD PRUDE AND DON'T LIVE FASHION. WE LIVE IT MAN.
  • I CAN HEAR YOU SCREAMING 'COLOR INSIDE THE LINES!!!' WELL F**K YOUR COLORING BOOK, COLOR BY NUMBERS APPROACH TO LIFE.
  • SINCE BARACK IS PRESIDENT BLACKS DON'T LIKE FUR COATS, RED LEATHER, AND FRIED CHICKEN ANY MORE?! WHEN YOU TRULY UNDERSTAND CULTURAL SETTINGS, BOUNDARIES, AND OUR MODERN DAY CASTE SYSTEMS, THEN YOU CAN FEEL THE GLORY AND PAIN FROM THE DAYS OF KINGS IN AFRICA TO THE NEW KINGS OF THE MEDIA.
I may be mis-reading that last bit, but it seems that West is suggesting that his critics don't fully understand his decision to wear fur because of cultural boundaries. Uh, sure?
