Take that Kanye!
Gar Anthony Haywood sent me his answer to Kanye West's book of bullet points, and gave me permission to post it here. Gave me a chuckle. Only hating on Kanye because he's a "proud non-reader." Otherwise, I'm a fan.
I didn't Kanye was a non-reader. And proud too. That's lame. He just did a show here in Chicago for high school students for free. I'll have to verify. LOL.

I'm a fan too, but please.
ReplyDeleteLove the artist. The author, not so much. Great publicity though, probably more than if he'd gone the Paris Hilton route and hired a ghost writer.
ReplyDeleteActually, Jamie. It's bullet points...written with a co-author!
