Easier than negotiating the Zambezi. Missed this. Dare I say Kanye West in Zambia translates as 'Go and sh*t West'. Maybe someone finally told him that and he lost it...

Kanye isn't harming anyone. Have you noticed how much positive discussion follows one of his 'provocative' statements? He's a true artist dangling on the outer rim and experimenting publically with ideologies and provocations of the life condition. He's not a gentle and predictable pop act. The dissonance he creates is his art form. He makes you check yourself. Did you know that the employment contract was developed to reframe slavery? It's an 'opt-in' agreement, but makes your services exclusive to the employer. They don't care about your living conditions or your health, provided you turn up on time each day and do your best work. If you're an employee, you're quite literally a modern slave. The pop rhetoric surrounding Kanye's comments is as basic as my 8 yerar olds homework. Kanye's the winner, because he exposes everyone.
