first... maybe. Who cares.
beZet | November 23, 2008
I don't like the state of today's rap (in general). There still are some true artists on the scene, but we have many, many crap ignorant rappers who rap about the same, all the time. I don't give a fuck that rapper X has money, money, money and lot's of bitches, like rapper Y, Z. Who gives a shit.
arionie | November 23, 2008
lol second....ne way bossip as usual exagerates everything but i get wat u saying tho hell i dont listen to rap either if ne thing listen to only hip-hop and there is a diff btween rap and hip hop
SNEAKGEEK | November 23, 2008

I love the last quote though
WHAT AN IDIOIT!!!!!
powell_simon | November 23, 2008
second
beZet | November 23, 2008
And if you listen just to rap, you're boring. The beauty about music is the variety of genres. Let's also remember where hip-hop comes from. Peace.
jus_chillin | November 23, 2008
bwahahaha, this shit is CRAAAZY! how do u attract so much controversy man???
JMelody | November 23, 2008
WOW..x..
YEsoFLY | November 23, 2008
lol kanye..
& WOW loook at the haters
u r to rap wat key b 2 lock!
Aroc | November 23, 2008
People need to chill. whats wrong with listening to other types of music, isnt that what music is for, being able to be diverse. Are they gonna hate on Jay for hanging out with Chris Martin or he listen to coldplay, Peeps need to chill for real.
robicole | November 23, 2008
That makes complete sense that you don't wanna listen to rap in your house. It's the reason why people make playlist for different moods. When you're at your house you wanna chill and relax, you're not in a grimy type mood. People harp on words and flip them but the true fans really know what's up.
MattyD | November 23, 2008
i dont get why people are pissed. each to there own. variation keeps shit fresh.
Amar | November 23, 2008
"BUG TIME" lmao.
Btw I really like Feist
You should check out Gregory and the Hawk.
Don't worry about these idiots btw.
JMelody | November 23, 2008
LMAO..x..
I Completly AGREE With you Kanye..x..

About everything You say ABOVE.

Its True The Last thing you wanna do is Listen to Rap/Or Drink COFFEEE..x..

LOL.x.

Kanye Your AWSOME.x.
vicjamm | November 23, 2008
This is funny. People are now so caught up with who's listening to what. So what if listen to softer music or something that is not hip-hop. Jay-Z listens to Coldplay, so what? It's still music! Get a life. People do have choices, let them choose and don't bother. Period.
Kim_Luvs808s | November 23, 2008
LOL about the caps. Kanye, you make me smile every day, you know that? Whether you blog or not. Listen, you have a right to listen to whatever YOU want. Don't let anyone say otherwise. You are a person first with your own tastes, likes and dislikes. And I enjoy hearing about those likes and dislikes. It's no one else's business to say you can or can't listen to something else.
Kanye, keep your caps lock down. :)
I can't wait til tonight. I'll be watching!
Kim
PS: I'm glad you're open to different types of music.
Collegin4theGoodLife | November 23, 2008
Hey Ye! have you ever listened to one of your own albums just for listening to awesome music...i know you probably won't answer this cause it would be taken the wrong way by media and put all over the news and web.
i might say something similar next time i haven't done homework like "i do the same work here so why would i do it at home...i watch porn at home"
CGzy | November 23, 2008
Listened to the interview last night. Ye had me cracking up with some of his comments on this topic...but mostly because I understand where he was coming from. So what if he doesn't listen to rap in his apartment? Really, what does it matter? Anyone?
yousfull_nothing | November 23, 2008
yo the last post on bossip by NEW YORK sounds dumb as shit!!! I can't stand when people say they heard something about celebrities!!! BITCH you don't run in Jay's circle so don't talk about what you heard!!!!
fashhh | November 23, 2008

athykay | November 23, 2008

Collegin4theGoodLife | November 23, 2008

Ben_Stone | November 23, 2008
Kanye you should be a comedian. I was fucking rolling reading that shit. Wheres the Good Morning America concert gonna be? I wanna see you preform "Paranoid" live. I fucking LOVE that song more than I love my parents. Funny ass post Mr. West.

listening to the entire interview right now...what's with all of the porn references? DJ Semtex, Ellen you need me to take care of you Yeh! no there's nothing wrong with porn! completely natural for men & women in my opinion. i think everyone should watch every once in a while...the world would be a much nicer place if every1 wasn't so uptight! btw funny comment you made about Ice T!! i always thought that too!!!
sayyeah | November 23, 2008
Seriously, it's your house.. what's it matter what you listen to? and I agree with the Starbucks reference.

SchmirkSchmigler | November 23, 2008
ALL CAPS IS THE COOLEST. ARE YOU A LEFTY? THATS ANOTHER GOOD EXCUSE. PERSONALLY I'M SICK OF BEING IN A RIGHT MANS WORLD, BUT I DIGRESS- I HEARD AN OLD LAMB SONG IN THE NEW TOMB RAIDER GAME COMMERICAL AND I WAS LIKE THATS MY SHIT. I DJ AND KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. AT HOME I USUALLY LISTEN TO TRIP HOP, OR GENERALLY ANYTHING FROM THE U.K. I'M ALSO INTO THIS HEAVY METAL BAND CALLED PELICAN. I LIKE THEIR VIDEOS TOO.
neverletudown | November 23, 2008
Kanye, Im glad you mentioned Marvin Gaye. He's a musical genius. Sexual Healing, Whats going on, Heard it through the grapevine, I want you, Mercy Mercy Me are classics.
athykay | November 23, 2008
Why is 808s & Heartbreak being advertised at Wetseal? Lol.
ClaudiaTheRoc | November 23, 2008
That's good Kanye, you would be crazy if you would listen to rap!
