Jay Smooth of Illdoctrine has been really on the ball as of late; his latest vid is a public service annoucement to all those who think this election is already won. Don’t sleep boys and girls; early vote today.
Kanye West posted this interview of Kaws done by co-author of Kanye's first book, Thank You and You're Welcome, J. SaKiya Sandifer and I must say; this is the worst interview I have ever seen. Maybe it's the journalism snob in me but everything from the shoty camera work [use a freaking tripod man! and since it looks like you just used a handicam anyway, would it kill you to bring more than one??] to the closed-ended generic questions, to the ill-structured interview format. Based on journalistic record, this guy couldn't get a five second interview with ME much less Kaws. If Ye didn’t get this guy into Kaws' studio, I have no idea how he got there. From what I can tell, SaKiya's corporate brand identities, print ads, speech writing and even mass publishings are all above par; maybe he was just having an off day...
All I know is that this interview hurts a little to watch.
