Video : Kanye West & Spike Jonze Short Film ‘We Were Once A Fairytale’

In Art, fame, fashion, Film, Hip Hop, Internet, Music, R&B on 18 October 2009 tagged 808s & heartbreak, 808s and heartbreak, bowie knife, Fonzworth Bentley, hari kari, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Los Angeles Film Festival, N.A.S.A., Nah Right, Sam Spiegel, See You in My Nightmares, Spike Jonze, Splinter, Squeak E. Clean, Tell Everybody That You Know with no comments

The short, written and directed by Spike Jonze, walks the fine line between self aggrandizement and self mockery that runs through all of Kanye’s endeavors. But the filmmaking is on point, with cinematography and sound design that authentically renders that feeling of being really disoriented in a nightclub. One doesn’t need to love Kanye to [...]

Jay-Z continues his recent string of doing big things for Hip Hop. Having Oprah talk about the music, the struggles, and culture of the Hip Hop artists to people of her audience’s demographic could possibly change a lot of perceptions and break barriers. Especially because Oprah has never been considered a fan of Hip Hop [...]

I don’t think Kanye was justified in his action, then again, neither does he, but isn’t this the kind of thing we have come to expect from a character like Kanye West? Good or bad, you can’t say that this was entirely unexpected. It still doesn’t make it right, but it definitely was not unexpected. [...]

Leno is correct in asserting that it would have been easy for Kanye to have backed out of this appearance and left his friends Rihanna and Jay-Z hanging, but instead Roc Nation stuck by each other… “It was rude period.” “My dream of what award shows are supposed to be” “I don‘t try to justify [...]
