rapvirus — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 00:09:45 -0700

Rapper Kanye West is on the warpath (again). Actually, he's blogging mad. Spitting tacks, even. So what's he got his Calvin Klein's in a twist over this time? The idea that he needs to deflate his swelling ego, ditch the grump, and do a Naomi Campbell. Anger management Rumours began swirling late last week that West had so antagonised those around him with his temper tantrums (namely his management), that the idea of him attending anger-management classes was mooted. Let's be honest, West is no-doubt a talented tyke, but he needs to chill the hell out and not be so testy. Anger-busting classes sounds like a great idea. Look what they did for Campbell. Oh, actually...
