really doesn't need to be a conspiracy theory explaining this. there needs to be a conspiracy theory to explain any moment kanye west is on live tv and doesn't do something like this.

I love the parallel this whole thing has to pro-wresting, right down to Kanye's outburst working in conjunction with Kanye needing a reason to be out of the spotlight or vacation.

That thread sounds like dude is totally 100% full of shit. I'd be shocked if it turned out to be true.

that whole story sounds ripped from achewood.
so Jay had been irradiating MCA's mint leaves that he pulls from his own private garden to make mojitos for like three months. So when he gets cancer and the Beastie Boys cancel, who's gonna step in to APW just as he needs the publicity to support the new album? Like that was an "accident"?
how many grey hagar slacks does jay own? i know the answer, do you?
seven, 38/35

Dangermouse had never even HEARD of the Beatles until a teenaged Sean Carter, with the foresight that betrayed him as a future mover and shaker, started sending him reel to reels of Abbey Road and Help! So flash forward to 2003 and Jay's selling well with the Black Album but long-term issue: no real internet presence. Dangermouse makes the Grey Album. BANG. Instant internet sensation.
Dangermouse was totally on board with all this of course

so Jay calls Brett and is like 'Look, I came back a few times myself. Do what you do big man' and Brett is like YEAH MORE FUN. Meanwhile Jay's already got Peterson on lock for a four album deal but only once his football career is over. So Favre implodes the team, Peterson retires early in 2011, drops his first album "28 and First" on Jay's new label and becomes the biggest star in country music.
We're leaking it to Perez Hilton shortly for more publicity; just waiting for Roger Goodell to sign off.

how does lil mama play into jay-z's web of lies
― da croupier, Tuesday, 15 September 2009 14:27 (fourteen years ago) link
2007: Megan Fox is just about to sign up for her first porno but Jay Z flies in and stops her; tells her she's got "bigger things" to attend to.
Less than three years later, Jay's mint-in-box Transformers collection has quadrupled in value.

lil mama is the shrink ray afflicted, transgendered Jay Z of the future, come back to warn Jay about the alien invasion. He jumped on stage to pass a data disc into his own pocket with vital information about how to destroy their hive lair.
you'd have to be blind to miss it.

I read that as "Jay calls Whitney" -- another important piece of the puzzle.

Jay called Obama to tell him to call Kanye that, hoping to score the Washington DC demo.

incidentally, is there a way as a mod to turn the images on?

oh, I get it. are some taylor swift fans talking about his uppitiness or something? i thought you meant kanye was the one being racialist on twitter.

kanye abstains from twitter, he prefers to have unlimited characters for his all-caps rants
