Kudos Kanye West

the whole world's ranting about Kanye West's latest outburst at this year's Video music awards. fans cursed him under their skins and critics bared their fangs, ready to draw every ooze of blood from him.

i even heard a bunch of old men under the void deck discussing about the incident. the rap-like hokkien vulgarities used in their conversation would have been worthy of an MTV award.

but wait... while the whole world is united against West, i have to raise my thumbs and give kudos to the man himself.

West, a man who has been through s%#t to rise to fame, knows his stuff.

a young 19 year old girl had just made her mark. a top-selling singer who has electrified country pop. she was on her way up. but for how long will she be at the top? will people remember her few years down the road? will she join the ranks of those one-hit wonders?

Top dog West had foreseen all these problems. he was determined to let her stay in the books. ditto his publicity stunt at the awards. who could have pulled off such amazing marketing tricks? There's only one man. West.

The only swift the old men used to know runs on four wheels. The only west that relates to them is somewhere in jurong. Now the names of Kanye and Taylor remain in their mind. the man who has a penchant to do the wrong things at the right time strikes again.

as any true blue singaporeans would have said...... you boomz kanye west...
