Kanye is the most materialistic joke in recent history. Rapping about high fashion and expensive cars/jets, and how rich he is. What a hypocrite. Now he's warning people about the NWO and corporations? Bitch, please. He's a huge part of the problem propagating these views to his people who can barely get by. Encouraging black culture to worship money and to get it at any cost.

name one way he encourages black people to get money at any cost

Oh wow! 7 hours later and still no response from Quattrocket. It's almost as if he's never listened to more than 2 of Kanye West's songs. Ironically one of them was probably Gold Digger.

How dare he like nice things

Go ahead and like nice things. But why be materialistic, then try to play the other side. That's why he's a hypocrite. That's all I was saying.

He's never "played the other side." Kanye has always been materialistic. Just because he's a conscious rapper doesn't mean he is a hypocrite for owning a maybach.

If you heard Kanyes music though he hasnt rapped about materialistic things he always has tracks about conscious shit and even associated with conscious rappers. Thsts why I really think there is s good side and an evil side. I personally feel a bunch of crlebs politicians etc made their own network so ppl dont have to sell their soul. I know that is crazy but I really think a lot of then have planned shit out to counter the evil

Such as reality TV stars?

Sounds like he got caught up in the anti-NWO fad that celebrities who don't know much like to sometimes do.

They kill real rappers. RIP Tupac

Kanye is part of a system that is part of the problem. But maybe he is waking up. Although for his level of success I would suspect that he had to give in a great deal to the mentality of those in power of his industry. But people change and he just might too. Interesting lyrics.

I don't believe so. He's a corporate rapper

I agree. To me I didn't sense any change in him, especially with the lyrics, "You see there's leaders and there's followers, but I'd rather be a dick than a swallow-er." To me he's calling us the followers aka the "swallow-ers" while he's just going to continue being a dick feeding us BS.

I remember one of his songs saying "Illuminati, High society, why didn't they ask me?" Or something along those lines.

New song called "New Slaves" > having a child with known gold digger

Kim Kardashian is worth $40 million. Ray J is worth $6 million and Kris Humphries is worth $8 million(I feel ashamed that I even googled this shit).

Kanye is the only recent guy shes fucked that is worth more than her. She didn't get anything from Kris Humphries. Infact Kris Humphries was the one asking for shit from Kim.

There's a difference between being a reality television whore and being a gold digger.

Did Kris Humphries even officially divorce her yet?

Yes.

I wasn't sure, knew he held out a long time from signing paperwork

Kanye was/is convinced the government introduced crack and AIDS into the urban black neighborhoods to control, subdue, kill them. New Slaves is actually a lot more mild than previous social/conspiratorial observations in his work.

Hey! Someone who has actually followed Kanye's career/done a simple google search. Amazing.

It seems obvious that the people getting upvoted have never actually listened to much of Kanye West's songs or heard him give interviews. The guy thinks AIDS was developed by the government. Almost all of his songs that reference designer clothes deal with the fact that buying all these clothes is part of a self consciousness brought about by consumer culture and the mass media. The guy went on television for a Hurricane Katrina donation drive and told everyone that the president hates black people and talked about the double standard with the phrases "looting" vs "looking for supplies".

Instead of actually addressing Kanye Wests material we have people who see this post and say "Oh look, it's generic rapper who I've never listened to and now he's talking about the things I talk about! What a materialistic hack."

This is why a large portion of Reddit views this sub as being comprised of retards. You aren't capable of taking 5 minutes and doing a simple google search on some rapper before proclaiming he's a materialistic hack but somehow you're the authority on how the government orchestrated 9/11. Fine work fellas.

What in the living fuck are you talking about? Other than completely assuming what people are saying about and how they're reacting to this video, what makes you think you know why people are upvoting it, or that they didn't read it? Or that if they do know about him that they have to think a certain? You're just a walking fallacy.

Well I'm not "completely assuming what people are saying about" the video. See, they've actually typed out a response to it. I'm not reading peoples minds. They've actually come out and said it. I never claimed to know why people are upvoting these comments. I just outlined what was wrong with them.

I probably shouldn't have even responded to your comment but it made me feel a certain?

I know what all the marketing people are thinking right now too, “Oh, you know what Kanye is doing, he’s going for that anti-government dollar. That’s a good market, he’s very smart.”

pandering to yet another market, what a douchebag

I hadn't heard anything about this yet so thanks for the heads up. I thought the song was pretty sick and I'll be happy when we can actually listen to the track rather than someones cell footage. The projection was kind of lackluster. He's giving voice to a lot of people's frustrations with the current state of affairs. He's not really saying anything incredibly new. Yes, corporations are soulless and exist to take your money. I liked the bit about the folks up in the Hamptons and how Kanye plans on fucking their spouses.

*Edit: I thought OP was asking for out take on the song. It seems obvious that the people getting upvoted have never actually listened to much of Kanye West's songs or heard him give interviews. The guy thinks AIDS was developed by the government. Almost all of his songs that reference designer clothes reference the fact that buying all these clothes is part of a self consciousness brought about by consumer culture.

Kanye is just jumping on a bandwagon. Immortal technique knows what's up and would school this guy on conspiracies and illuminati.

Kanye west is a man who impregnated one of the biggest fame whores on the planet, worships materialism and has even done a pepsi commercial

This "i hate corporations and paparazzi" shit is one of the most hypocritical songs ever made.

6th album projected on to 66 screens, one being the federal reserve, with a name like 'new slave'. Interesting.

You can always tell the false prophets; they are on major record labels...

Remember Eminem's effort a few years ago? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox0Q4YIdnGI

Imagine all of those modern day slaves who make his Gucci cloths and all of the Blood Diamonds he has. Lol, what a joke. But the African American community will eat this shit up.

He's clearly a racist.

All rappers talk about is how much money they make, how cool they are, how many women they get, what kind of brand name clothes they wear, what kind of cars they drive, what kind of planes they fly in, what sports teams they prefer, how they get good drugs etc. some are talking about what's going on in the world but if you don't seek out rap you may have never heard it.

whos kanye kidding?

that nigger is the first one getting lynched come the revolution.

Upvotes for talking about "lynching a nigger". Way to go r/conspiracy!
