The past few weeks have seen Kanye West cross the line from fame into infamy, clearing up any confusion anybody might’ve had about the two terms before. As we’ve noted, if good taste and common sense were a windmill, Kanye West is Don Quixote on steroids.
First there was changing the name of his new album several times at the last minute, then delaying its TIDAL-exclusive release, then claiming he made Taylor Swift famous, and let’s not forget how he tweeted that Bill Cosby is “innocent”.
But for a real breakdown on the whirlwind of crazy that is Kanye West, we turn to the man who’s an expert at this kind of thing – Stephen Colbert. During a recent episode of his late night show, Colbert took on West, starting with his Grammys boycott and ending with his new “corporation”.
Yes, if you haven’t heard, West is looking for Silicon Valley billionaires willing to invest in his new company, Donda, which is named after his late mother and will innovate in the fields of hovercraft technology, “luxury search engines”, and “emoticon auto-correct”.
Yeah, we don’t know what those last two even are. Colbert help us all.
