While Kanye West took to the Kris Jenner show, he not only exposed baby North West’s first photo but he also took the time to respond to comments that were made of him by President Obama, Hit the jump to see Ye’s message to the president!
As Kanye hit Kris Jenner’s show earlier today he exposed more of himself than usual. But his response to the president’s comments about him and Kim was classic Yeezy. He stated after Kris Jenner, swiftly took out her notecard with the President’s comments in which he said that:
“”a window into the lifestyles of the rich and famous” was partly to blame for shifting American values. “Kids weren’t monitoring every day what Kim Kardashian was wearing, or where Kanye West was going on vacation, and thinking that somehow that was the mark of success,” he added in an interview earlier this month.
Ye’ replied to the President by stating how flattered he was that the President speaks of him “so often”:
“So Obama basically said we’re the new American dream. I think he was posing it like I was supposed to take it in a negative way, but I’m just so happy that the president mentions me so often. Thank you very much, Obama! I do think people should want to go on vacation or travel, because that’s what opens people’s minds. When I was in 5th grade, we went to China and I lived there for a year and I could speak Chinese… Also because my dad lived in an area that was mostly white and my mom stayed in Chicago in an area that’s mostly black and has gang activity, I had to navigate all these worlds. That scope is what I brought into my creations, to the music I make, to the clothing I make. When I design a shoe with Nike, that’s mentality is what I brought. So as Obama is talking about that, yes, they’re looking at what she’s wearing and where we’re going for vacation because this is the way we relate to this new information age. There will be new people getting passports and wanting to travel. They’ll hear songs like “N—-s in Paris” and they’ll be like, “I want to be a n—a in Paris!” Oh — do you have to beep the Paris word?”
