I love how Kanye doesn't mind being different. Not 2get off the subject, but I'm trying to do something more positive in the hip hop game and need 2get some feedback from variouis types of audiences. Anyone who gets a chance check out my youtube page and let me know what you think. Thanks in advance. Stay cool and stay positive.
