Is it true that Chris brown is on this album? Marilyn Manson, da baby and Chris brown??? And yet the outrage for Dua was so bad she had to remove da baby from her track?(not saying she shouldn’t have I’m glad she did). Like what is it about Kanye that people are just willing to look the other way? Not just fans but celebs too! Kid rocks a trump supporting clown who probably couldn’t pay his way into a feature on someone’s album but Kanye is still a creative God to these people. Make it make sense!

I saw the tracklist in a post here and its obvious he was courting controversy bc its like...every prolific abuser you could think of has a feature for some reason

[dropdeadpirate]

ugghhhh, of course he did

There is nothing else to say about Kanye at this point that hasn't already been said. He's a stunt queen and his music hasn't been good for awhile. The people streaming/buying his music are hate streaming or stans. There are no other reasons.

Yup. And screenshot gps of drakes place just to start a media frenzy. He’s such an asshole

Kanye is first and foremost a man, so that's probably reasons number 1 through 149. The other reasons are the same with lots of shitty men in the industry - they produce compelling and interesting work in the dawn of their careers and then are able to coast and soar higher because they're being propped up by a network of people who don't want to challenge their "genius" and "artistry" until the general public has officially soured on them. and even then, they'll be afforded the option to come back.

in this essay i will--

He seems like the type to think they've all been unfairly targeted like he has been.

Unless he added Chris afterwards he was not. But Chris did a feature and it wasn’t on the album so Chris posted “Kanye is a whole hoe” the day he released the album. Even Da Baby wasn’t on the album at first but more controversy happened the day he released and Kanye added him back. The first day controversy really helped the sales because there were so many artists/people coming for Kanye for either removing people who were supposed to be on it or him taking from folks but not crediting them.

No. Chris Brown had a feature on the album but Kanye West axed it. Chris Brown was big mad about it and beef with Kanye. CB called KW a “whole hoe” on Instagram and leak his verse on YouTube.
