"You know people be looking at me like umm..like I got a problem with something. Like I'm so uncontrollable or something, like I don't do what I'm supposed to do or something; you know. Its like they wanna uhh, they wanna have everybody so brainwashed. They wanna control everybody but, you know rumors, lies, media, marketing. Its like they wanna steal you from you and sell you back to you after they stole it. They wanna make you feel like you less than who you really are."
Watch the rest of the rant below.
Kanye also mentions how they crush your dreams. A recent example of this is the white girl who guest blogged for www.curlynikki.com. Black women were so angered by a white woman calling her hair natural that they were ready to get the site shut down. Quite a few dedicated writers, editors, and readers have been insulted in this process. Ebony even got thrown in the mix when a guest blogger wrote an opinionated piece on the discussion. We all have our struggles and no one should be insulted for their struggle because others don't think they fit the description.
The biggest message in this rant was about believing in yourself. Kanye mentioned how all he's ever done was believe in himself and this is true. For many of us, all we have is the strength to believe in ourselves but someone will always try to kill our vision.
For the first time I am convinced that I need to go to be at once of his concerts. What did you think of this latest rant?
