Kanye Rants On Twitter About The Word "*****" In Music..

[duncanthetall]

I've never referred to any woman as a bytch.

I remember back in the early 90s when NWA/DeathRow was getting popular and the government and Congresswomen etc used to actually hold hearings about rappers referring to women as bytches and ho's. It was a BIG deal back then.

This new generaton of youngsters have grown up in a culture/rap culture where it's not even bat of an eye worthy to call a woman a bytch. Like it's just nothing now.

Yeah. Past couple of years I've even slipped up and it kinda just...rolls off the tongue sometimes now.

Like, I always feared retaliation, but the first time I called this bytch a bytch, and it just...worked...man...I was like

[Gifted one]

[White Ant]

Yeah. Past couple of years I've even slipped up and it kinda just...rolls off the tongue sometimes now.

I'm not tweeting to say what we need and what we don't... I just wanted to think out loud with you guys today...


44m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

I will admit that I sometimes go back an omit cursing from my records. I like to use profanity as a tool and not a crutch.


46m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

Stevie Wonder never had to use the word bytch to get his point across


47m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

I was recently questioned about the use of the word bytch in my music and initially was offended by anyone questioning anything in my music


48m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

please excuse any and all of my grammatical errors


49m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

What if there was no profanity... What if we decided to legalise profanity in a sense? In France they play songs with cursing on the radio

Perhaps the words bytch and nikka are now neither positive or negative. They are just potent and it depends on how the are used and by whom?


56m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

Is it ok to use bytch as long as we put BAD in front of it? Like you a BAD bytch


58m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

If nikka is such a positive word, why do we feel so uncomfortable for white people to say it, even with a hall pass?

59m Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

correction, Here's the age old question, would we refer to our mothers as bytches? Would' we call our fathers ******s or better yet nikkaS?


1h Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

Has hip hop conditioned us to accept this word? Do we love this word as much as we love the word nikka in an endearing way?


1h Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

Even typing it in question form it's still feels harsh?


1h Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

To be more specific, is it acceptable for a man to call a woman a bytch even if it's endearing?


1h Kanye West Kanye West ‏@kanyewest

I usually never tweet questions but I struggle with this so here goes... Is the word bytch acceptable?

 

[Black Ball]

I've never referred to a woman as a bytch in real life unless I was about to get into an actual fist fight with her on some hate shyt. I don't even do it on the boards, just the way I was raised. I may say nikka alot on the boards but don't really use it much in real life anymore.

 

[Cool Dr. Money]

he's an attention whore move along nothing to see here

 

[Rain]

he's asking a question. presenting a topic for conversation. not making a declaration.

what's the big deal?

This

Why are some of ya'll talking like he doesn't acknowledge he has a role in this? That's a major point in his tweets

 

[Dump Gawd]

only thing that matters is the bytch bad cosign lupe the young gawd

 

[aRoMaN21]

oh please... there are too many stank bytches out there.
call them like you see them. its freedom of speech and common sense.
wtf

and profanity?? LOL, when people need to be told to SHUT THE FUKK UP.
and if you were kanye, youd tell them to "get the thera flu" after you said it

 

[Harry B]
