So I was reading an interview of Kanye West and he talks about all these new ventures he wants to try, and I realized that I really want him to make a car. It would most likely be batshit-crazy, completely unconventional but awesome and beautiful at the same time. It would most likely be controversial, hate it or love it, just like him and his music are. I want it now.

Well, at least there's almost no way for it to be as terrible as IAMAUTO. Or is there?

I dunno. How can this car not put a smile on your face?

Kinja'd!!!

It would end up being a chopped up 78 Cadillac or something silly.

You've just described the original Porsche 911.

No. For the following reasons.

Kinja'd!!!

He can't make a car by himself. No one can. Even the most boring and unengaging cars take resources and global infrastructure that a even multimillionaire wouldn't have to create. So he wouldn't 'make his own car'. He take some other already made car and shit all over it.

I say 'shit all over it' because he knows nothing about designing a good looking car, because he's never done it before. His first attempt is guaranteed to be garbage. Sometimes, even the folks who do it for a living produce garbage. Thats just the way it is. Car design is hard.

Oh yes, I'm sure Mr. "I'm gonna build the new Sistine Chapel" Would design a batshit, crazy, out of this world car. But none of those are good precepts for designing things, nor are they sorely lacking in the automotive landscape. A square wheeled, one door, nine seat, V9 and a 1/2 (yep, one cylinder is actually cut in half ) 9 wheeled car would be batshit, and crazy, and out of this world, and also mind numbingly dumb, and also have no actual reason to exist. Beautiful, timeless car design is much harder. We aren't going to get that from a Kanye West car. We'd get an ugly body kit at best, and I could just go to ebay if that's all I wanted.

He would do much better than Will.I.Am

Obviously I don't mean he would design the whole thing by himself. I also don't think if he did it would be just an ugly body kit like that delorean above. It probably wouldn't be beautiful or timeless, but it certainly wouldnt be boring and I think it would probably end up being pretty cool.

I absolutely love that car, but if he made a car it definitely would be more original and cool than a chopped up caddy. He's not your typical gangsta rapper

He is in a totally different ballpark from will i am. If you actually listen to his music its extremely artistic and innovative and original, not like the commercial bs that the black eyed peas would make. Will i am is nothing like kanye

Knowing how much of a douche he usually is, it'd absolutely suck. It'd probably cry and whine if you didn't baby it.

Anyone with sense would have put out a cease and desist if someone made a coinye thing about. Its capitalizing on his brand while attacking him and portraying him as an idiot. And that second article is about a situation of someone verbally attacking his family with racial slurs and about him wishing he could be somewhere without racism, but then the author takes his legitimate and serious statements and tries to marginalize them by bringing up some stupid comments about his dancing on stage. Neither of those articles show him being a douche, and frankly he admits that he is immature sometimes and can be egotistical, which not many people do. He is very honest about his immaturity and flaws, unlike most celebrities and many people who just put on acts

Absolutely not. Anyone of any fame whatsoever is going to get some flack. How many other famous people have had caricatures of them without suing? Ok, sure. Muslim terrorists threatened to kill someone for caricatures of Mohammed. But I don't remember any of the presidents or congresscritters suing for the numerous caricatures in political cartoons. What about Bush or Obama bobble-heads with big ears, etc? I don't see the makers getting sued.

The other article, I understand, to an extent. The person saying racist remarks definitely was out of place... but that was very mature for West to punch said kid in the face, then, of course, to go on with his thing about having his own island. I was with him, until he opened his mouth.

This is the same person that calls himself Yeesus, says "rap is the new rock'n'roll and I'm the biggest of them all" (excuse me, Coinye, er, Kanye, I think Dr. Dre would like to have a word with you), and, worst of all, tries to say that being a rapper is like being a soldier or policeman. Really? I don't know where that's honest about his flaws.

I'm just waiting for him to fade away or burn out, which is inevitable for people of that nature. Eventually people will grow tired of his antics (those that haven't already). I just wish he'd keep his mouth shut, the whole "Let a fool hold his tongueand he will pass for a sage" thing.

Theres a big difference between a political cartoon or caricature and making money off of someone by using it as the logo and name of your business. It obviously wasn't mature for him to punch the kid in the face, but I'd like to know how old this kid was, and also the kid continued to make the remarks obviously in an attempt to goad action. It still wasn't right however. But him having a dream of an island of his own without racism or hate isn't selfish, its just an idyllic dream. Also every prominent rapper likes to think they are the greatest (see: eminem - rap god and countless others), and frankly considering kanye has countless great albums and more grammys than anyone ever so young I think its fair for him to make that argument. And the parralel of rap/hip hop to rock and roll is fair. Rock and roll was the rebellious, popular music of the last generation and now that is the similar roll that rap plays today. And if you listen to him talk about why he named the album yeezus you will see its actually very thought through, and not narcissistic. People base opinions of him off of the crazy stories they hear, but they don't listen to what he actually says or the music he makes. Listen to my beautiful dark twisted fantasy with an open mind and im willing to bet youll love it. Also, why does everyone talk about how egotistic yeezus is, but eminems rap god is just fine. Kanye is one of the few mainstream musicians today who trys to make real beautiful art and not just try to sell cds and get radio plays
