Dec. 17th: "Carine is awesome"

What? Who? Kanye West has been getting more and more cryptic in his tweeting lately. His interventions are more and more sparse, and more and more vague. Of course, we're all still following, but it is getting harder to understand exactly what is going on. Kanye used to tweet like it's going out of style and now he only posts something every few days. And most of the time, it is something weird, mysterious. No explanations. That is why we are here!
So who the hell is Carine? Why is she awesome? According to some sources on the internet, we are speaking of Carine Roitfeld. Really? Is that really what he meant? There have been recent reports that Kanye is looking to get some hands-on experience in the fashion industry. Maybe he's just trying to suck up? For the un-initiated, Carine Roitfeld is the Vogue Paris editor-in-chief and is in her 50's. They have been pictured together before.
Don't mind me saying she's still hot... but by no means a supermodel!!!
A quick Google search for famous Carines reveals no names of interest... so this very well may be the right one. Is Kanye looking for a partner in a new fashion venture?

Shy Kanye? Reserved Kanye?

Kanye hasn't been tweeting lots lately... and it got me to thinking.
Every time I've seen Kanye in public appearances lately, he's seemed so shy and reserved. Could it be that Kanye has changed his public ways in fear of media blowups and scandals like that of the MTV VMA's?

He's definitely one of the quieter, more reserved artists in the rap world. Don't get me wrong, I like him for his creations, not for his public comments. Although it'd be nice to get some news once in a while...

Dec. 1st video

So Kanye suggested a video link this week on Twitter, on december 1st. Here is the link:

Let's check it out.
You're probably who is REJ3CTZ? And why are they doing a song collaboration with Chris Brown?
twitter.com/REJ3CTZ should give you some info.
Secondly, I detect a new hotness dance as illustrated in this clip. LEARN IT!!!
Props to Kanye for always directing us to the new hotness... he has an eye for talent.
What do you think of the song?

Positive energy!

As I mentioned in a previous post, Kanye was on fire (not in a good way) after his appearance on the Today show with Matt Lauer.
Kanye tweeted on friday: "All positive energy ... all smiles. Much love to Matt and the whole Today Show. I accept ya'll future apology in advance LOL!"

Glad to see all is better now. Being the explosive and flamboyant... and especially honest personality that he is, it is to be expected that the media is constantly gonna take the sensationalist angle and try to make him blow his top.
Kanye's gotta be a bigger man. Which he is.

Why's Bieber his only friend?

Hey all,

I've been thinking about something all day... Why is Justin Bieber the only person Kanye West is following on Twitter? That makes no sense to me. The Biebs!!!
Are you a Bieber fan? I'll share this offer with you; you could get a gift card for free Bieber tickets! I found it while surfing around.
Personally not my cup of tea.

Marc Newson designed a boat?

Ok; another introduction to the luxury items Kanye dreams of; a boat by Marc Newson.
Marc Newson is a famous designer... (link to his website) pretty cool,  modern style. Nice and clean.
How much is this boat worth if Kanye says he needs to work hard for it?
I gotta admit, this is a cool boat. Nice color scheme, really fresh.

Missoni chucks

So Kanye was given a pair of Missoni chucks as a gift!
Damn cool shoes... in case you don't know what they are, here are some pics: http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2010/08/26/converse-x-missoni-chuck-taylor-all-star-hi-fall-2010/
Now this begs a question... who would give him such a gift?

Good day today...

Great day today for Kanye's twitter account @kanyewest .
Started off with a hot new release! Except it's a Bieber song... http://www.kanyeuniversecity.com/blog/2010/08/runaway-love-remix/ To be expected; he's the only one Kanye's following! Still kinda hot with Raekwon on there.
Then he said: "I told her.... I need you to be my new problem" I love this one; perfect tweet, typical Kanye line. Simple but effective!
After that, a little more of the same; "She asked when is fashion week.... uuuum...I thought it was every week??!!" Fantastic; Kanye West really is good at this Twitter thing.
Finish it off with a good deed for his buddy Lupe:
"From my friend @lupefiasco Help in @Pakistan_NOW: Text CERF to 90999 to donate $5 to @unfoundation"
It was a good day for @kanyewest today and there's still 4 hours to go. This is the single most interesting Twitter account to follow!

Slow day in Kanye land?

Here are a few statistics on Kanye West's Twitter activity to hold you off.

Kanye joined Twitter on July 28th 2010. His first tweet was at 12:17 pm.
As of August 30th 2010, 9:16 pm, he has 879,741 followers.
So; Kanye has been tweeting for 33 days, 8 hours, 59 minutes and 0 seconds... In minutes, that's 59+(33*24+8)*60 = 48,059.


Followers per minute: 879,741 / 48,059 = 18.3 !!!


Every minute, Kanye's Twitter gets 18.3 new followers!
Are you one of them?

3 sides to the coin?

"There's 3 sides to every story ... your side, my side and the truth"

Interesting... So Kanye West doesn't speak the truth? And neither do I? Tell me more about your fedoras!
