Where is Kendrick in all this? He’s got the most clout on his name of anyone not named Jay to react to this . I’m bummed he’s being silent. Can you imagine Tupac reacting now I’d he was still with us ( obligatory maybe he still is...)?

Oh boy

The White House is exploring plans to host multiple summits on race between prominent athletes and artists and President Donald Trump, according to the outside adviser spearheading the effort.

Cleveland pastor Darrell Scott, one of the president’s most prominent black allies, says the idea of bringing in artists and athletes to hash out their differences with Trump has gotten a boost from last week’s lovefest between the president and Kanye West. Scott is set to meet Thursday with Trump at the White House about the summit proposal.

The plans remain preliminary and no dates have been set, though Scott expressed confidence the summits would go forward and that Trump would attend.

“It’s going to be unscripted, unfiltered, blunt,” Scott said. “No topic is off the table.”

I mean, Kendrick promoted XXXTacion while that boy was deep in the shit about sexual abuse. I don't think K wants to be part of the conversation like this.

Since when did Kanye West change the way he talks? Maybe I missed it but he sounds a lot more...polished now.

The souljah and son of a black panther would obliterate his wack ass.

Theres nothing to disagree with. He’s changed the landscape of hip hop music twice in a decade with College Dropout and 808s and Heartbreak. You can’t do that without being a master at your craft. Ignore the shenanigans and Kanyes a genius hip hop musician. Every rapper out right now could not succeed without Kanyes work paving the way for them, this is fact.

Shame he’s a bellend though
I disagree.

You can be a registered independent?
I technically am although I mostly just vote democrat. I wrote it in when I registered. I assume other states actually have spots for it. I figured they would just throw me in a party but it actually has a "I" by my name. Adde bonus, I get less junk mail and calls from local candidate which seems backwards.

So when you register to vote in America you put your party affiliation? That’s weird.

Hard enough not getting dragged into the vortex, why would you willingly step into it.

It's about voting in primary elections to choose the candidate for the general election. Registered Democrats can't vote for Republican candidates in the primary election and vice versa. They can vote for whoever they want in the general election.

It just seems that being tied to voter registration is ripe for setting up gerrymandering lines.
It totally is.

Oh, I'm not exactly crazy about it. A lot of the argument for it is to prevent someone say registering Republican/Democrat to vote for the worst candidate to give their partie's candidate an advantage. I have to stress that this is a state by step thing. Some states let you vote in any primary but I think this is how it is in most states.

Riiight... Hear that ever rapper out now. You owe everything to Kanye. He's so fucking good at rap that he gets all the credit for any of your work before you even do it

The absolute fucking gall of him to stand there wearing thousands of dollars of clothes and grilles and chat such shit. Words that have real world consequences but it doesn't matter to him because he's so far disconnected from what that means.

Fire this cunt into the sun where he belongs. Bravo to the guy from TMZ standing up to that in a really eloquent way. Could see that the response melted Kanye's tiny little mind.

2Pac is long dead, and Kendrick probably wouldn't touch this shitshow with a 20 foot pole.

When T.I. was talking on TBC about taking the hat off and Kanye saying 'they want me to take the hat off', T.I. should have said 'no they don't'. Because that's the whole point of this- conservatives do not want Kanye to take the hat off. They love it. That's the whole point.

It doesn’t really matter. You can just gerrymander based on precinct results in the last election. You dont need to know the registrations of individual voters.

Why should he say anything, it's not his job. He unfollowed him on twitter apparently, not that it matters.

Jay hasn't said anything either. Let Kanye dig his own grave.
