Kanye Just Being Kanye

Between the infamous ‘Imma let you finish…’ moment of 2009 and marrying into the Kardashian Klan in 2014, Kanye West has become the butt of innumerable pop culture jokes. All of which serve to negate his true contributions to culture and music - his talent and his self-proclaimed genius. Or at least that’s what Osman Faruqi argues in his article, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Defence of Kanye. Othniel Ting joins Lee Chwi Lynn in urging the public to just let Kanye be Kanye.
