KAYNE ... WHAT THE?!? PT. 2

In a following up to the previous posting of Kayne ... What the?!? from last week, Daddy West has some interesting words for his son ...

Kanye West's Dad Critiques Son

Kanye West is under fire because of February's Rolling Stone cover.

Wearing a crown of thorns with blood running down his face, the rapper posed as Jesus Christ for the cover shot.

Inside the publication, Ray West, a sociology professor and former Black Panther, takes his son to task.

Evidently Kanye's father disapproves of the degrading lyrics in his son's songs. "I've stated to him very clearly that he needs to move beyond the negative language and the 'n****r' statements," Papa West explained to Rolling Stone.

Sounding similar to Bill Cosby, Kanye's father continued, "It's alright to say 'b***h' and 'm***er f***er' on the corner, but when you start operating on a different level you can't talk like that. Fine, you're trying to get some street acceptance. Now that you got that, get back to your roots."

Sounding a familiar parental refrain, he finished up with the statement, "You know that's not where you came from. You know that's not how you were raised."

Special Thanks to Tracy Decker for the information!
