Kanye West & Richard Edwards

Apologies if already posted somewhere but can't see it if so.

Thought the forum might be impressed that Richey's story has made the New York Post, thanks to Kanye West and resident Brit journalist Hardeep Phull. Who'd have thought it?

I think the band and the Richey legend are summed up quite nicely for US readers.

It would have rapped better if the title was "Kanye West & Richard Ed."!
But yeah, this wasn't something I'd expect to see this year.
Happy Christmas Kanye!
And that New York Post put to shame what I've read in some UK or even UK newspapers.

If a load of Rappers made an album based on musical samples of THB, I know I'd get that on the first day of release.

Hmm! A little more attention like this and we might get a North American release for No Manifesto after all!

Maybe Nicky will realise his ambition of winning an Oscar for best soundtrack

As I said in the other thread, it's not up to us, but to the individual theatres to decide whether to book the film, so please let your local theatre know there's an audience for it. Ask them to contact our distributor through one of these links.

This gives me newly-found respect for Kanye's stylist.

I want that jacket. <3

May make my own, although if I become a style icon in the near future, Kanye West may just sue me.

Hate the man, but you have to admit he is pretty much funky-fresh.

Cringe.
