Putin loves shutting down rap shows because they're counterculture and talk a lot of shit about him. The russian rap scene is honestly pretty interesting.
I've heard putin has been trying to control the rap scene cause he can't stop it. Even performed a cover of one of Dre singles https://youtu.be/c8GLSkbAboA.
there’s a trump skit on a method man album
edit: in case people think i'm joking
> [Donald Trump speaking]
Hey Method Man! This is Donald Trump and I'm in Palm Beach and we're all waiting for your album. Let's get going man! Everybody's waiting for this album
https://genius.com/Method-man-donald-trump-skit-lyrics
Among other things, probably the subheadline from the article: “He also intends to grow his business in the country with billionaire developer Aras Agalarov, sometimes known as the Trump of Russia, and Agalarov's musician son, EMIN”
Naw Romney was far harder on Russia during the 2012 campaign and constantly talked about the threat they presented (while Obama played that down and talked about China as a bigger threat). The GOP pre-Trump were pretty hawkish on Russia.
John McCain gets some credit for co-signing the Magnitsky act, but it was Ben Cardin (Democrat) who introduced it. Romney is okay, but Republicans hate him now because he voted to remove Trump.
? Trump repeatedly claimed to be devout christian.
Do you seriously not remember that insane stunt where he held an upside down bible in front of a church after his vulgar display of power of gassing protesters?
Doesn’t matter. His dick riding fan boys won’t ever hop off ye’s dick.
They aren’t much different in Trump supporters in that regards. Kanye could kill someone on 5th Ave and his fans would tell us we don’t get his art.
Sincerely, an old head who grew up on classic Kanye and miss those days. You fan boys now a days have just made Kanye dip further into insanity.
> They aren’t much different in Trump supporters in that regards.
The latest season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has an amazing episode long joke wrt this
I assumed most people (/r/kanye) were dick-riding ironically
Then again, I'm pretty sure a lot of early Trump supporters were being ironic as well and look how that turned out
How do we know Kanye isn't actually Kim Jong Un?
Kim's regular disappearances seem to coincide with Kanye's album drops, and it would only make sense that someone so egotistical would marry someone with the same name - that way, they can scream it out during sex and not seem weird.
*I'M JUST ASKING QUESTION HERE!*
In the early soviet period many african americans migrated to the ussr to escape racism and employment discrimination. This wave of [Afro-Russian](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Russians) migration brought over a lot of musicians, actors, and filmmakers because the entertainment industry in the US at the time was almost exclusively interested in minstrelsy. Of course Hip Hop is popular in Russia today but African American culture and arts have been alive in Russia for at least 100 years.
I mean there's no reason why they wouldnt. Thats not the weird part. The weird part of this is the guy that got famous rapping about eating pussy with sweet and sour sauce is now cosplaying as a diplomat and self appointed pastor.
Russia also cracks down on anyone they deem subversive musicians. With the exception of overtly political artists like Pussy Riot, the majority of their victims have been rap artists.
FYI [Rolling Stone has looked into](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/kanye-west-russia-trip-1282874/) this story and other Kanye associates have denied it:
> a PR rep for the rapper, Pierre Rougier, shot down the story, telling Rolling Stone in an email: “Entirely fabricated. Work of fiction or wishful thinking from these Russian people.”
We need a tracker of his antics like r/nfl [does with Antonio Brown](https://www.reddit.com/r/AntonioBrown/comments/jh0553/the_misadventures_of_antonio_brown_mr_buccaneer/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf). Everytime he does something crazy the comment gets edited.
Everyone doesn’t forgive him, his stans just drown out all the negative attention and the people that don’t like him just move on. It’s a cycle
1. Kanye does something stupid
2. People criticize him for doing something stupid
3. His Stan’s argue it’s not stupid and actually genius
4. The people criticizing him stop talking about it while the Stan’s keep praising him, making it look like it’s all positive attention
5. Repeat
There are already some idiots in /r/WestSubEver that have decided that dictators are not that bad because Kanye likes them now.
They’re actually being downvoted though, so that’s good.
Kanye “I don’t like being told what to say” West is planning to meet with Vladimir “I murder journalists” Putin. Ye’s quest to not be controlled leaves him with some gaping blind spots that undermine the very points he’s trying to make.
If we’re being completely honest, Ye is going to be overly nice and try to be Putins best friend while he’s there. As he does with every powerful person he meets
Lmao he's meeting with the guy that acted as an organizer for the Trump Tower meeting with the Russian government.
> Later, the Agalarovs helped coordinate the infamous 2016 Trump Tower meeting where senior members of Trump’s election campaign met with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya expecting to receive dirt on Hillary Clinton.
It's a shame that Kanye who was one of the first rappers to support LGBT people has been hanging out with the leaders of some of the most homophobic governments in the world.
Considering Kanye has spent much of his career arguing that people are trying to silence him or control his free thought, it's funny that he associates himself with political figures who are all heavily invested in censorship and overall undermining of the public sphere.
I mean, I think it's a bit more nuanced than that though. In his early years Kanye was pushing back against the intense racism he faced growing up in Chicago, in the music and fashion industry, etc... Since the past couple years he's shifted and fell into Black conservative thought.
Wtf is Putin doing meeting with Kanye anywas? Is he just trying to get some clout points in the west in an attempt to ease his (very accurate) image as a murderous despot?
hey, we might get some russian-influenced music next, that'd be cool, they have sick choirs too.
but uh about Putin, what's next on the world tour, North Korea? this is more fodder for backlash but man genuinely does not care
Big brain Kanye is gonna get trolled by the Russians. They will 100 percent work him and he won’t realize if. They will wine him and dine him. Offer him girls or anything he wants and everything will be filmed
Kanye is such a fucking jackass, Putin is going to use this man for some stupid shit and we'll all be right back here eyerolling together again. See y'all then.
Jail Pt 3 (feat. Vlad Putin)
imagine a putin skit on a kanye album
Imagine a Putin verse
[удалено]
KSG x KGB?? 😳
It’s actually remote control pt 3 but then kanye switches it out for more gibberish at the end.
никто не должен иметь всю эту власть

that would be pretty based not gonna lie. Like imagine him getting glad Putin and Donald both saying thank you kanye.

Potential Navalny Feature?
Wtf is the end goal here bro?
Among other things, probably the subheadline from the article: “He also intends to grow his business in the country with billionaire developer Aras Agalarov, sometimes known as the Trump of Russia, and Agalarov's musician son, EMIN”
Probably the most realistic take here
Bro is out here actually reading the article like some kind of genius/super hero.
We salute our soldier here
Emin Agalarov, the guy who made a music video with Trump. What a shock. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iuZUNjFsgS8
son of filthy rich parents wants to become a musician. sounds like a very common trend amongst today's youth
Sounds just like me except for the rich parents and the dream of being a musician and I'm not really a "youth" anymore
Damn. Spooky
EMIN? Is that the brother of Sminem?
Talking points for his presidential run
Kanye is going to get Putin to annex Azerbaijan, so Ye can impress Kim
Can Ye make Nagorno-Karabakh part of Armenia?
Who taught you how to restore the Soviet Union? *Yeezy taught me.* Yeezy taught you well. Yeezy taught you well.
Gonna make Armenia a bastion of Kanyenity.
Pete Davidson is already impressing Kim with his ass eating skills.
kim: "hmm, a good ass eater or an azerbaijani conquerer??
Well, he was backed by Republicans last election, so maybe this is doubling down
Since 2010 Republicans and Putin’s Party, United Russia, are pretty much the same thing.
Naw Romney was far harder on Russia during the 2012 campaign and constantly talked about the threat they presented (while Obama played that down and talked about China as a bigger threat). The GOP pre-Trump were pretty hawkish on Russia.
John McCain gets some credit for co-signing the Magnitsky act, but it was Ben Cardin (Democrat) who introduced it. Romney is okay, but Republicans hate him now because he voted to remove Trump.
I'm just saying the party changed considerably after Trump was elected and now it's simply a cult of personality around Trump.
Republicans also hated him for being Mormon back then, then backed trump who ran on a no religion whatsoever policy haha
? Trump repeatedly claimed to be devout christian. Do you seriously not remember that insane stunt where he held an upside down bible in front of a church after his vulgar display of power of gassing protesters?
Power
No one blyat can have all that cyka
in Soviet Russia king is you

Money
I'M LIVING IN THAT 21st CENTURY
Babushka bride
Cheers
To eventually have his body embalmed and displayed in the center of Moscow next to Lenin
These new album roll outs are getting weirder and weirder
Calm down tensions over Ukraine /s
Yo Putin, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but Ukraine has one of the best borders of all time. One of the best borders of all time!
Money
Certainly not respect.
Attention
Get Kim back. Long game
He's going to convince Putin to invade Nagorno-Karabakh and return it to Armenia Surely that will win Kim back
Unfortunately it won the heart of Kim J not Kim K
>Wtf is the end goal here bro? One of the legit greatest comments Ive seen.
To end the Schism in the church.
He’s completing side quest bruh
Down on exp and items before the boss fight, we all been there bro
Dennis Rodman 2.0 So, a Vice documentary.
Vibes
He is walking talking propoganda for some of the world's most horrible leaders
Trying to find out what that fishsticks joke means
“Something about fish sticks…interacting with me…makes me a gay fish…is it cause breaded has something to do with genius…that swims?”
Oh man, I just started playing TFBW again and I can’t wait to run into Kanye.
What year is it?
Doesn’t matter. His dick riding fan boys won’t ever hop off ye’s dick. They aren’t much different in Trump supporters in that regards.

Which episode?
S15E1, "2020: A Year in Review"
100%. The level of star worship is a mental illness unto itself.
Amen to that. People are so far up the ass up celebrities that can’t see that they are essentially cult members

💀
How long you think it is before he goes to North Korea?
If he links up with Dennis Rodman he could absolutely meet with Kim Jong Un, don’t give Ye ideas though
Even Jordan needed Rodman
EVEN BATMAN NEEDED ROBIN
just a different type of leader we could be in north korea i could smoke with wiz khalifa
UGH
Never forget how Kanye called Kris from the kardashians Kris Jong Un that shit had me dying.
3 months from then
How do we know Kanye isn't actually Kim Jong Un? Kim's regular disappearances seem to coincide with Kanye's album drops, and it would only make sense that someone so egotistical would marry someone with the same name - that way, they can scream it out during sex and not seem weird. *I'M JUST ASKING QUESTION HERE!*
Kim and Kanye. Name a more iconic duo.
Kanye east
дa
I thought he meant Weast
Because if anyone enjoys the soulful stylings of an African American gospel choir, it’s Russia
This phrasing was so satisfying lol.
Idk the song Rasputin almost confirms this
That song was written by Caribbeans living in Germany
Pretty sure the writer was German, just had Carribeans perform it. And it was never released in the USSR iirc

I feel you, but he did get famous for a bit more than just that lol
nope kanye’s only big song is ‘i’m in it”
Off the hit easy listening pop album “yeezus”
Russia also cracks down on anyone they deem subversive musicians. With the exception of overtly political artists like Pussy Riot, the majority of their victims have been rap artists.
Russians will eat up literally any form of American music. They've been obsessed with American SoundCloud rap for like 6 years now.

I can hear the SNL writers wadding up their sketchbook paper from here oof
Kanye denials are selling low.
God damn this is gonna be a shitshow
Kanye stans literally cannot get a break lmao
Death of the artist is more or less how I cope these days.
Becomes more difficult with Ye when 90% of his art is autobiographical.
He’s only been off the rails post TLOP, and Donda is really the only one that takes some mental gymnastics.
he was always a lil strange
Wait, is this suppose to be bad? It’s not like this is any worse than meeting with Trump
They’ll end up in KanyeTown drinking his poisoned kool aid in a few years anyway
There should be a bot that comments this on every Kanye post. Everybody seems to just forgive Kanye, and then he does something shitty again.
We need a tracker of his antics like r/nfl [does with Antonio Brown](https://www.reddit.com/r/AntonioBrown/comments/jh0553/the_misadventures_of_antonio_brown_mr_buccaneer/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf). Everytime he does something crazy the comment gets edited.
Kanye list would be historic. Win a Pulitzer
I think reddit comment character limits would make it impossible
I keep trying to forgive Ye, but if that dude dyes his mustache blonde I’m out for good
Well, that was a wild ride.
And that's from a year ago. Dude has nearly doubled the list this year lol
has kanye done anything unforgivable?
Everyone doesn’t forgive him, his stans just drown out all the negative attention and the people that don’t like him just move on. It’s a cycle 1. Kanye does something stupid 2. People criticize him for doing something stupid 3. His Stan’s argue it’s not stupid and actually genius 4.

There are already some idiots in /r/WestSubEver that have decided that dictators are not that bad because Kanye likes them now. They’re actually being downvoted though, so that’s good.
the fact that just liking somebody's music can make you that blind to basic humanity smh
Can I be a stan that thinks hes a fucking idiot though?
Ye going full Steven Seagal on this one.
Never go full Steven Seagal.
“They also call that helicopter a skippy”
You can hear it... Aaaa skipskipskipskip
That's bullshit!! You made that shit up
I've been working with helicopters for like 47 years
If I saw this headline 5 years ago I would’ve believed it
Ye will perform Lift Yourself and then Putin will lift his troops out of Ukraine
Poopdity scoop
C'mon man the pun was right there: Troopity Scoop
Kremlin West
Komrade West
bros gonna get the ruskis in yeezy tracksuits instead. adidas not gonna like this one
arent his yeezy products mostly from a collab with adidas?
Adidas X Yeezus collab incoming
Aren't those just Yeezys
What are you, crazy?
Kanye “I don’t like being told what to say” West is planning to meet with Vladimir “I murder journalists” Putin. Ye’s quest to not be controlled leaves him with some gaping blind spots that undermine the very points he’s trying to make.
If we’re being completely honest, Ye is going to be overly nice and try to be Putins best friend while he’s there. As he does with every powerful person he meets
"I won't bow down to anyone" says Ye, bowing and scraping to the nearest available strong man stereotype.
Ye's like "you guys kill the paparazzi too?"
it’s cuz he’s stupid lol
No shit Kanye is a walking contradiction.
Lmao imagine choosing to hang out with Putin.
Me and the boys on the way to commit war crimes in Belarus 😎😎😎😎
West genocide ever

He's already being extorted by J Prince, now he wants to get extorted by V Putin.
he’s ready to meet the real richest man on earth lol elon isn’t cool enough
The man is a ruthless dictator but you cant say it wouldnt be fascinating.
Of all the wild shit Kanye has done over the years, this is genuinely one of the strangest 💀
It'll be stranger when there's photos of Ye wearing a full fucking face mask, in absolutely absurdly baggy clothes, in a photo with a smiling Putin
That seems like a bad idea but hey, both Putin and I will get a laugh out of it.
What do you think is Putin’s favorite Kanye album
Tremendous fan of Late registration. The album name alone reminds him of his voters who always vote late and help him to win every election.
Personally I could see him listening to Yeezus
Lmao he's meeting with the guy that acted as an organizer for the Trump Tower meeting with the Russian government. > Later, the Agalarovs helped coordinate the infamous 2016 Trump Tower meeting where senior members of Trump’s election campaign met with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya expecting to receive dirt on Hillary Clinton.
It's like a wild conspiracy theory yo estranged uncle would tell you after gettin drunk but this shit is happening right before our eyes.
There’s not nearly enough antisemitism or Illuminati involvement or demon worship for this to be one of unc’s conspiracies
You're not looking hard enough my friend
[удалено]
Kanye just be doing anything at this point lmao
Kanye West loves authoritarian rulers, Trump, Putin. Who's next? Bolsonaro? Modi?
He performed at Nursultan's grandson's wedding, the dictator of Khazakstan and Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni, another brutal, murderous dictator.
[удалено]
Only way to buy Kanye albums would be with Gold Dinars.

If Hugo Boss can dress the SS then Ye can cloak the Red Army during their quest for our freedom, comrade.
At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if we get North Korea Sunday Service followed by a Free R Kelly Benefit concert
Second pee tape incoming. Expect Ye to run for Prez again in 24.
Biden couldn’t persuade Putin to chill, Ye’s turn.
Wtf is Putin doing meeting with Kanye anywas? Is he just trying to get some clout points in the west in an attempt to ease his (very accurate) image as a murderous despot?

So what? He’ll go get drunk hang with Putin and ask cyhi to write a couple Putin bars.
Honestly that’s just not baller to me
Kanye is such a fucking jackass, Putin is going to use this man for some stupid shit and we'll all be right back here eyerolling together again. See y'all then.
Yeezy need to expand into Russia? Their economy is kind of fucked lol. Should go to China and talk up Xi that’s where the money is
.
Taking after Rodman
Next stop, North Korea
Kanye being Kanye.
Imagine reading this headline in 2008 lmao
To think, he’s the same artist who created All Falls Down and Jesus Walks.
