eeew! … but why?
”I’d definitely feel like, in the next however many years, if I work out for two months, that I’ll pose naked. I break every rule and mentality of hip-hop, of black culture, of American culture.”

Yeezy, please. Don’t do anyone, any favors.
Have you ever found yourself thinking, “Wow, I’d really love to see KANYE WEST naked?” If your answer is no, you’ll be sad to hear you might be subjected to a nude West sometime in the future.
In the February issue of Vibe magazine the rapper says posing naked is something he’d love to do in the next few years:
”I’d definitely feel like, in the next however many years, if I work out for two months, that I’ll pose naked. I break every rule and mentality of hip-hop, of black culture, of American culture.”
Obviously, modesty is not West’s best trait. And since when is posing nude breaking any rule in black or American culture? It’s been done, many times.
The rapper also made it clear that pleasing his fans is the last thing on his mind:
”I want the freedom of having less fans. It’s like the freedom of having less money. If you have less money, you have less responsibility. It’s like Bjork. If she wanted to pose naked, you’d be like: ‘Oh,that’s Bjork.’ But if I wanted to pose naked, people would draw all types of things into it.”
No, Kanye, I think we’d just wonder why you’re posing naked. Just like how at this very moment I’m wondering why you just compared yourself to an Icelandic woman with an odd sense of style. Damn, maybe 50 Cent is right. Kanye might be a little more in touch with his feminine side than we think.
