So the rap elite, Kanye West and Russell Simons (where is Jay-Z?) showed up at Occupy Wall Street a few days ago.
This video is so weird, Simons is doing all the talking, he talks for Kanye West at the third person, when West is just right there!
I am not sure why this is the case, probably West is afraid to open his mouth in front of a camera these days, but he should not have come with that gold heavy chain around the neck, shouldn’t he?
They are the perfect people to show up, because rappers are so in touch with needs of the poor, after having sold for years their materialistic views, all wrapped up by bling and other superficial possessions. Even if they have modest origins, they don’t live in the same world anymore, they are just poseurs in front of the crowd of the moment,… they are wall street,… some people said they were even booed, I don’t know if it’s true, but Kayne, ‘You can't blame 'em, they ain't never seen Versace sofas’
