Dude are you nuts! I love John Legend and Andre 3000 songs. But nobody is going paid $68.00 for a cd that just came out last year dude. Now I don’t know its this your April fool jokes or what. But what a dumb deal.

Kanye West is one of the worst rappers out there, he's just as bad or worse than P. Diddy. You're better off listening to the following instead:

50 Cent
Lloyd Banks
Young Buck
Ludacris
Twista
Chingy
Lil' Flip
G-Unit
Snoop Dogg

And anyone that thinks any of the rappers I just mentioned suck are probably just jealous, because these rappers are so good that they can't believe it. Rating: 1 / 5

OVER HYPED! Kanye West is being heavily promoted only because MTV is trying to push in a more ’serious’ rapper with a pretentious name (I am sure his real name is either Tyrone or Jamal) like Kanye West. If you want rap, real rap, listen to Eminem, Vanilla Ice, Marky Mark, Beastie Boys, Kid Rock or Limp Bizkit. Those are real rap bands not LOSERS like Kanye West.

Highlight: MTV uses this loser as a tool to show everyone that they care abou underground “real” rappers. BS.

There was a lot of hype over this Kanye West album and I thought it would be good so I bought it. When I listened to it I was very disappointed. First of all this guy can’t rap and he can barely even rhyme. I don’t know what Jay-Z was thinking when he signed this idiot to rocafella. Kanye Wests style is terrible and he is a hypocrite. I also think he is very racist and his lyrics are offensive. This guy is a joke so don’t waste your money on this stupid crap. If you want a great album I highly recommend Twistas new album Kamikazi and forget about that retard Kanye West.

Comment on Kanye West – Music Videos on DVD by D. Ashe

I’ve got to be honest, as much as I love Kanye West, this DVD is garbage. It’s the kind of bootleg quality you’d find June-Bug and dem’ selling at the barbershop. Do NOT waste you’re money on this product.

Comment on Kanye West Presents Thank You and You’re Welcome by Zmiker

I purchased this book as soon as I could, not knowing what to expect. I found a short book full of interesting ideas and concepts.

Kanye West often says that he does what he does to make people feel something. That could mean that they hate what he does (and from the reviews I've read of this book, they hate this book). I respect the risk taken and the ideas presented.

(As a quick soap-box moment.... If you decide that you dislike someone for any minuscule reason, you will probably try to justify that feeling by being additionally negative about that person and whatever that person attempts to do. Perhaps the negativity, pessimism, and closed-mindedness of some would be best left to themselves.)

How one should read this book:
1. Open to a page.
2. Read what is printed.
3. Don't turn the page....
4. STOP AND THINK!
5. Find a way to apply what you just read to your personal situation.
6. Decide whether or not you want to adjust your situation in the way suggested.
7. Act in the way that is appropriate to your decision.
8. Turn to another page and repeat the previous steps.

Thank you and you're welcome! Rating: 4 / 5

First off I would like to remind people that this book started out as something of a memento to give out after a show on his last tour not a full-fledged book.Secondly, the hate on Kanye West thing is a growing tiring fad. Of all the artists with well published egos he seems to get the most flack. This is not to say its right but it exists and its just something that's been bothering me.

Being a frequent reader of his blog I already knew this wouldn't be a full featured book or open window into his conscience just something to express sayings his says he lives by and it does just that. There are some pages of blank spaces that could/should have been filled but again this is meant of a quick table book.

My favorite quote has to be the "getting use to being used" page. Those who can look past their bias against the author will appreciate the truth behind it and how little it is said. Everyone uses people, to misuse, or overuse is where negative connotations of using someone should come in. That is what this book is about: little things to build upon on your own.

Lastly, Mr. Wests comments about being a proud non reader of books is somewhat disturbing considering he wrote one but that is his personal belief. I,however, do believe in that learning through experience and talking to others gives you a better picture of a culture or topic than a book can. I would recommend this book as a super quick read for people who appreciate random quotes and being able to take away their own message from it. Those who cant stand Mr. West can skip it as you probably wouldn't care if he had a cure for cancer much less wrote a book with something to take from because you are stuck on his ego and are on the overflowing bandwagon of blind detractors whose only knowledge of his character are the negatives we all possess.

Another idiotic byproduct of the hip-hop movement…written by an author that finds “words” and “reading” to be more detestable than cholera. Kanye should come to Kansas City, Missouri where we are blessed with one of the worst inner-city school districts in the country. There, he would be welcomed with open arms by our multicultural, liberal, Democratic, politically-correct intelligentsia. He could become a guest lecturer, and read from this wonderful tome to the future criminals, convicts, and dropouts that our illustrious school district produces. I have no doubt that this book would be an improvement in the curriculum of the Kansas City school district!
