In my daily visits on the blogosphere, I came across this post from Assistant Entertainment Editor, George Lang. 

Kanye West “not a fan of books. I would never want a book’s autograph.” | StaticBlog.

Now, excuse me for stating the obvious here but,  Kanye, you wrote a book.  You are not a fan of books, yet you are a published author!  Why would anyone who likes to read buy a book from a man who isn’t a “fan” of books.  Go back to making music. It’s obvious from here that it’s the only thing that will get you anywhere in life.

Besides his obvious lack of correct grammar, his new book probably isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.  At only 52 pages, I’m really surprised he was able to put together enough understandable words to form a sentence.  Given his statement that

 ”Sometimes people write novels and they just be so wordy and so self-absorbed.”

I don’t think I could get throught he first chapter without disgustedly tossing it aside.  I am a member of the grammar police and would have to lock this book up in the can…..the trash can.  I do however, want to read his mother’s book Raising Kanye: Life Lessons from the Mother of a Hip-Hop Superstar by Donda West  just to see if the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.  Not to mention, I’d love to know more about the woman who raised this semi-illiterate, grown up child and the values she taught, or rather, didn’t teach her son. I’m probably being too harsh here, but some things really rile me up.  I promise these rants are few and far between.

Til the next chapter,

Deanna
