Live 8 Post 16

Kanye West is on stage and talking garbage about "man made diseases put in the African-American communities". What? I believe I heard that correctly. That is the ultimate conspiracy theory in the black community--that and Ronald Reagan introducing crack to decimate African-Americans-- and this guy is pushing it. He also waxed non-poetically about class warfare and is now singing some bad song ripping Bush.

What's up with the women in his backing band being masked?

I'll keep an eye on a transcript that shows the exact words.

Update: This guy is a horrible entertainer.
