Music: Hype kills: Kanye West and Lady Gaga’s “Fame Kills” tour axed

  • We blame 50 Cent, because why not? On November 10, the two most overstyled, vapid names in pop music were supposed to launch a co-headlining tour designed to make everyone forget how Kanye treated Taylor Swift (or that Lady Gaga is a possible hermaphrodite). But not long after 50 Cent called it the “Gay Tour,” it got cancelled. Coincidence? We think not. source

Music: Kanye West didn’t learn anything from that “South Park” episode

  • We have no clue where the heck Kanye West came from, but there he is, completely ruining Taylor Swift’s shining moment. We hope the next time Kanye wins an award, Taylor Swift steals the mic from him and reps Hannah Montana.

Music: Rapper homophobia evolves into “no homo” boasts on records

  • This is still a concession to homophobia, but one that enables a less rigid definition of the hip-hop self than we’ve seen before. It’s far from a coup, but, in a way, it’s progress.
  • Slate columnist Jonah Weiner • Who’s obviously thought way too hard about the role of homophobia in hip-hop. While it’s always been there, the latest mutation, the use of the phrase “no homo,” seems to at least offer a degree of wiggle room. “No homo tweaks this dynamic because it allows, implicitly,” he says, “that rap is a place where gayness can in fact be expressed by the guy on the mic, not just scorned in others.” Cam’ron, Lil’ Wayne and Kanye West (who has made statements denouncing homophobia) have all spouted the phrase on record. Is it really a turning point? • source

Culture, Music: Best part of the South Park Kanye riff: It got through!

  • SOUTH PARK MURDERED ME LAST NIGHT AND IT’S PRETTY FUNNY. IT HURTS MY FEELINGS BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM SOUTH PARK!
  • Kanye West • Who writes in all caps all the time, by the way. He agrees with the show’s sentiment, and although his feelings were hurt, dude agrees he needs to “get past” himself. Good for you, you crazy bastard. • source
