Kanye West: ‘White People’ Don’t Understand What it Means to Be Black

Kanye West is bashing “white” publications for reviewing his album

On a Thursday afternoon in New York City last week, Kanye West finally debuted his album, The Life of Pablo, at Madison Square Garden. Then he announced on Twitter that the album he previewed was not the album.

At the end of the week on Saturday Night Live, Kanye West eventually announced that he had put the real album online. But even then The Life of Pablo was only on Tidal. Although it’s unclear whether the album currently streaming on Tidal is the final version, publications have put out their reviews shortly after the release.

Kanye West, who at one pointed claimed this album would be the best of all time, was not happy with those reviews for not giving him a perfect score. In fact, Pitchfork.com gave him a 9 out of 10 – their best score in six months, but that was not enough for Kanye West.

So Kanye tweeted:

Then, after letting that tweet grouw with thousands of retweets and likes for about half an hour, West decided to go after “white” publications that try to review “black music.”

This news comes after Kanye announced that he’s $53 million in debt, was caught begging Mark Zuckerberg for a billion dollars, and his friend revealed that Kanye needs “counseling help”.
