Kanye West's Crazy Sex Addiction is Neither Crazy or an Addiction

Posted by Emily Farris

 

Kanye West is on the cover of the March issue of Details and in typical Kanye West fashion he said lots of really flattering stuff about himself, including but not limited to:

"Put this in the magazine: There's nothing more to be said about music. I'm the f--king end-all, be-all of music.”

"Oh my God, I'm one of the greatest rappers in the world. I'll get on a track and completely ee-nihilate that track, I'll eat it and rip it in half. I wouldn't have to think of it.”

"I have, like, nuclear power, like a superhero, like Cyclops when he puts his glasses on."

But what's the secret behind all of this, uh, success? Why, his sex addiction, of course.

"People ask me a lot about my drive," he says. "I think it comes from, like, having a sexual addiction at a really young age. Look at the drive that people have to get sex—to dress like this and get a haircut and be in the club in the freezing cold at 3 a.m., the places they go to pick up a girl. If you can focus the energy into something valuable, put that into work ethic..."

Ummmmm. Hi, my name is Scanner Emily and I'm a sex addict? (Except without the clubbing.)

What a prick. I realize that this is all part of his gimmick or whatever but damn it's getting old.

Does anyone actually like this guy?  By the way, Cyclops has to put on the glasses in order to contain the optic blast or whatever that he shoots out of his eyes.  The glasses don't make him shoot them.  Get your nerd facts straight before you start bragging, Kanye.

I can't say I'm a huge fan of his music, but frankly, I like his ridiculously over-the-top ego. Ever since that great pagan bacchanalia known as 'Rock & Roll' died of old age and video game dilution (and yes, I worship at the altar of Camille Paglia), music stars have pretty much been boring as hell. Sure, Kanye's schtick won't last any longer than Marilyn Manson's, but what's the alternative? Some talentless douche from American Idol?
