Kanye West

September 1st, 2005

When a girl at UNT turned me on to Kanye. I didn’t like it at first cause I was like that’s that fool who is playin’ oldies at 150rpms or something. But my brother bought it and I burned it. Man, I conneted with it. An underdog story like no other. A black man not excepted for being himself in rap and not taken seriously on the mic.

I feel that way about my comedy and life in general. Also I was just finish school and had no job lined up. I felt like school was a waste. College Dropout got me through it.

The wizardry with word and his realness with his physical, mental, spiritual inconsistancy. He is my favorite artist at the moment.
