“Banned in the USA!!! They don’t want me chilling on the couch with my phoenix!”

In the 70s album covers has actual nudity… it’s so funny that people forget that… Everything has been so commercialized now.

Followed:

After an hour:

In all honesty … I really don’t be thinking about Wal-Mart when i make my music or album covers #Kanyeshrug!

Followed again:

  1. what time does City Hall open? says:

    Why would they ban that! Weird yes…but ban worthy? If artist were always banned for weird we would never have ‘the David’?! Or ‘The Thinker’?! Artist are weird and edgy…hello, their not sellout marketing media they are a-r-t-i-s-t! If he wanted to be mainstream and go out pleasing every lil listener he met he would have never came out with “‘J’ walks”! This is getting out of hand…when they did it to Nas I was like,”well..maybe I understand”..but would they do that to Marilyn Manson, Pantera, or Lady Gaga.! The media has had it out for Hip-Hop for a while but now its getting blatant. If I was Kanye I would sue…I mean fck, its the “American way”! I would pay out the anus for a good sellout lawyer and win that sht too… Then I would exploit my win with another song! “The Good Life”..2! LMAO
