Kanye West, in his desperate valiant effort to comeback from his loose-lipped, Taylor Swift mishap last year at the MTV Video Music Awards went right to the heart of the Social Media Climbers Paradise…the offices of Facebook. Look, the guys is smart. He’s not gonna just work from the periphery, rather, he used his celebrity status to infiltrate the nucleus of the social media machine. Let’s call it Journey To The Center of the Earth meets Back to the Future.

Listen to the cooing and chortling of the Facebookers, like 2nd graders when the Fireman and Policeman come to give their annual presentations. I know, he’s a celebrity. All is forgiven. And frankly all is forgiven in the case of Kanye West. It is not like he whooped her or anything. So, Kanye made an inappropriate remark. Who doesn’t? What I might be entirely over is rap.
Kill the hypocrisy,
This is an aristocracy.
I’m Socrates
But my skin more chocolatey.
Yikes. Let’s see what Wikipedia says about Socrates and compare notes…shall we?
Socrates (Greek: Σωκράτης, soˈkraːtɛːs, Sōkrátēs; c. 469 BCE–399 BCE[1], in English pronounced /ˈsɒkrətiːz/) was a Classical Greek philosopher. Credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy, Socrates is an enigmatic figure known chiefly through the accounts of later classical writers, especially the writings of his students Plato and Xenophon, and the plays of his contemporary Aristophanes. Yeah…let’s just say that Kanye plays Soccer-ates.
