kanye west as jesus

[squeeze_me_tite]

you can think you're all hip and stuff being anti-christian or quick to make witty comments about the religious right, but i'm pretty sure you'd have to be a huge fucking moron to respect kanye west for portraying himself as jesus (crown of thorns, bleeding face, ragged clothes) on the cover of the new Rolling Stone

are you talking about the one where he's holding the fluorescent crucifix? or is there actually a famous photograph out there of billy with a fluorescent cross bleeding and wearing a crown of thorns?

i think you misunderstood my argument here. i'm not threatened by artists dealing with religion or being public about how it fits in their scope of things. i know some people might like to assume that i AM arguing against this on an ultra-christian level, just because SOME christians WILL fight this solely on ideological terms and it's an easy argument, but that's not it. i'm aware that people do cRaAaAaZy things in regard to religion all the time. duh.

the reason i'm not a fan of this cover, as i've said here, all leads back to the arrogance thing. that's solely it. a guy who is constantly stroking his ego about how he "deserves" to win such-and-such award, or how he is "the best," or how his suffering "is our pleasure" is now on the COVER of ROLLING STONE magazine BLEEDING and wearing a crown of thorns.

so if there is some major magazine cover out there with billy corgan bleeding under a thorny crown, i'd probably have some thinking to do. but even then, i think the fact that he's not the most arrogant fucking celebrity of all time would probably make the difference for me.

Here is my arguement concerning Jesus West

Kelly. News has actually been leaked. Kanye IS truly Jesus Christ.

where is your arguement now.

And also, I can come at you with an idea. I, as you know, listen to much more rap/hip-hop/r & b than you and most people we know, and to be honest, Kanye si really innovative. He DID deserve the awards, he IS better than most acts, and in my opinion, and his, he is one of the best artists in his genre, not because he is catchy, but for actual musical/lyrical value.

And you are a huge dork. But I love you more than Kanye.
