Kanye West Pepsi CommercialKanye West is making the news yet again. Kanye will be appear in a new Pepsi commercial, which will debut during the broadcast of MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 28th.

The commercial, titled "Timeline," follows Kanye as he walks by backdrops of various cities, including Paris, Cairo, Tokyo, and Chicago, via state-of-the-art computer graphics and special effects. The commerical will feature the song"Heard 'Em Say" from his new album "Late Registration," which features Adam Levine of Maroon 5.

Kanye and his "aura" (fueled by Pepsi) have a major influence on every city he visits. The 30-second spot was directed by Spike Lee and his production studio Spike DDB.

"From concept, to execution, to post-production and effects, to revisions-- a lot of work went into this creative process," said Kanye West, who is managed by Gee Roberson of Hip Hop Since 1978 Management and is signed to Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Rec record label. "I want to thank Pepsi for working overtime to see this through."

Kanye west a hero?!?! f**k kanye west!!! i am so angry this morning on my way to work i couldnt think of anything else. On my way to work this morning i was jumping through the radio stations to find some good talk or music. Well, there was a song on wired 96.5 that i was listening too and then rocco came on, and i was about to turn it when he started talking about racism. And i was like, "leave it alone already!?!?!" but then something kept me listening... Apparently after all this "george bush doesnt like black people talk" and "the media protrays a black family as looting and a white family as looking for food". Honestly, no they really dont. The media portrays everyone down there as looting and i've come to my own realization that the people down there looting should be punished if they are stealing goods such as tv's, guns, and expensive items, but they actually are looking for food when they are taking food. And if they are hungry and the food is just sitting there going bad, then yes, take it. Feed your families!! by all means. Please. That really cant be misconstued in any way. Get over your F*ck*ng self. And then he had the audacity to call faith hill a racist, a mississippi born native because in one of her sad, love songs she talks about "time will come when the darkness will wash away and the strong will be stong again" he said that faith hill was trying to erase black people?!?!? omfg! time magizine just rated kanye west in the top 100 most influention people of the world. Not just

Not just the united states, but the F*ck*ng world. -that's nice. And what really got me going...i will quote as best as i possibly can, "i dont thinkwhite people should be allowed to use slang. Its okay for them to say bling, and homey, but they shouldnt be allowed to use slang until its at least a year old." are you F*ck*ng kidding me!? seriously. Telling a certain race that they arent allowed to do or say something because of the color of their skin is racism my friend. Racism. So when you are one of the most influential people in this world, something like that reaches a lot of people. Its going to cause a lot of hate and stir up more racism. Is he trying to turn ignorance into hate? because im not too happy right now... The urban dictionary defines racism as the following: noun. 1) strict definition: an irrational bias towards members of a racial background. The bias can be positive (e.g. One race can prefer the company of its own race or even another) or it can be negative (e.g. One race can hate another). To qualify as racism, the bias must be ir

Because im not too happy right now... The urban dictionary defines racism as the following: noun. 1) strict definition: an irrational bias towards members of a racial background. The bias can be positive (e.g. One race can prefer the company of its own race or even another) or it can be negative (e.g. One race can hate another). To qualify as racism, the bias must be irrational. That is, it cannot have a factual basis for preference. 2) commonly intended definition(in america): a bias that white people have against blacks. 3) politically motivated definition: a justifiable reason to redistribute resources or opportunities between groups on the basis of race alone. **************uhmmm, an irrational bias towards memers of a racial background. That would qualify kanye west as a racist. And anyone who dares to argue me, is a F*ck*ng nut and i really have no interest in having you as a friend because your pure ignorance is horrific enough to the human race.
