  17. Envy Me (Go-Go is my medicine)

    @harlem chic

    yeah u gotta give it to him on that one he is very talented

  18. Honeydipt

    Why the hell is Kanye wearing a denim jacket throwback like something I wore back in the late 80’s when I was in high school…complete with a red heart and a Michael Jackson button? What the hell???!!! Dude is talented but he is soooo metrosexual and weird to me!

  19. I'm Just Me (GIVE ME A QUARTER AND I'LL TELL YOU YOUR FORTUNE!!)

    LOVE YOU KANYE!! I just love your whole style and everything about you and how you move. This is a wonderful cause to get involved in and you are correct that a lot of Vets slip through the cracks when they come home.

    @ BOSSIP

    WHY WAS THE LIVES***** LINK REQUIRED??

  20. I'm Just Me (GIVE ME A QUARTER AND I'LL TELL YOU YOUR FORTUNE!!)

    @ ENVY AND ERRONE WHO REFUSES TO CLICK ON LIVES*****:

    Rapper Kanye West has team up with MTV to honor Iraq war veterans as part of a new TV special. The “Stronger” hitmaker stars in “Choose or Lose & Kanye West Present: Homecoming,” which shows the rapper surprising young veterans in their homes.

    According to reports, West offers discharged troops help and advice as they try to get back to normal life after fighting in the Middle East. He also listens to their heartbreaking stories and harrowing war experiences.

    West says, “There are hundreds of veterans out there who are falling through the cracks. They make the ultimate sacrifices for us by laying down their lives, but it seems like a lot of them just get forgotten about. I know my music inspires and helps a lot of people, but you can always do more.”

    The one-hour MTV special will air in on July 28.

  29. STEFANY

    I guess that’s a big ups to Lock Jaw, aka pit bull mug.

    @JUST SAYING,

    YOU SOOOOO WRONG!!!! HA! HA!

  30. CUTIE PIE

    he offer’s “help and advice”?! ok…I think that is a great thing but when did kanye become an expert in military business to offer advice? regardless I still love me some kanye.

  31. getyourhandouttamypocket

    SMH @ the flare on Kanye’s jacket. Looks like he has a nice piece of meat under those khakis…hmmmm….


  32. @ STEFANY

    Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    I can’t help myself…

    :-)


  33. Go get them Kanye!!!!!!

  34. DanaDane

    Maybe if Black ppl would stop hatin on each other’s fashion sense and focus on things that matter, our race wouldn’t need a CNN special moderated by some Latina chick to uncover “what’s wrong” with us…who the ***** cares about his jacket?!?! Point is, while you have buffoons like Rick Ross’ lyin ***** makin a fool of himself (and our race) talkin about bein a BOSS when he was workin for the law, and crackheads like DMX gettin new mugshots daily, Kanye West is being an example of the kind of quality Black men that are sadly under and mis-represented in the media… TEAM KANYE, SUPPORT THE TROOPS!!!

  35. Raquel

    I think that ALL rap artists, actors/actresses should STAY OUT OF POLITICS.

    They have NO IDEA what they are talking about. Except for Nas. What do they care about or economy? They are working 9-5, they arent living paycheck to paycheck, they dont have to worry about the stock market, or their 401k, or high gas prices, or high food costs.

    So, to all of them I say SHUT UP…eat your caviar, drink your moet, and spit shine your rims and….KIATE LA BOCA!!!

  36. dapro11

    That’s cool Kanye put in the work brotha. We need more people to step up.

    Regardless how you feel about his fashion sense, he is his own man. He doesn’t follow a trend and you gotta respect that


  37. “Maybe if Black ppl would stop hatin on each other’s fashion sense and focus on things that matter, our race wouldn’t need a CNN special moderated by some Latina chick to uncover “what’s wrong” with us…who the ***** cares about his jacket?!?!

    Amen!!

    Anyone with something negative to say about what Kanye is attempting to do is officially a “crab” trying to pull him back in the bucket.

  38. The Roc

    Looks like Kanye has on the McFlys, Nice kicks.

  39. kenya

    i like his music but i do think he is a bit of a prima donna. the remark about bush not caring about blacks was on the mark, so i’m not surprised that he is willing to take a stand against the devil and his cohorts. go head kanye


  40. i agree we need to focus on more pressing issues besides clothing, however Solidad of CNN is not Latino. She is a mixed sister. Nice wrk Kanye but unfortunatelty its probably just a publicity stunt.


  41. Soledad O’brien that is…typo…her mother is an afro cuban.

  42. Azzedine Alia Fan

    publicity stunt or not, it’s a nice thing to do, you don’t see Jay Z or 50 doing sh** but trying to fatten their pockets!
