Where Are You Yeezy?!

I come to my Global Grind readers a sad woman. For a couple of days now, I have really been missing one of my favorite people in the WHOLE WORLD, Mr. Kanye West. We all know that he said he was going to be out of the spotlight for a while because of the whole "Taylor Swift" incident, but its not like she was winning the Nobel Peace Prize. It was a MTV Moon-man, for christ sakes!


We all remember that night. September 13, 2009...


Taylor Swift was up against Beyonce' for "Best Female Video" at the VMA's...although many thought Bey had it in the bag, young Taylor took home the award. Bey's Big brother Kanye wasn't feeling that- AT ALL. The combination of anger and Hennessy is what fueled my main man to hop on stage, take the mic from Taylor and say "Taylor, I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce' had the best video of ALL TIME", shrug and give her the mic back. That night, Twitter went crazy, people just 'couldn't believe' that happened and everyone was just so mad at Ye.






After the incident, Kanye publicly apologized to Taylor more than once, even appearing on Jay Leno's show:










And then decided to back out of the spotlight.


Fast forward to now. There have been a couple of Kanye sightings:


September 26th, 2009 at Common's concert:













In Paris...



...and in Rome with Amber in November



Although he has went into hiding, he is still the butt of many jokes. The most recent was on Jimmy Kimmel:









My question is: If Taylor is over it, why isnt everyone else? The quicker people move on, the quicker I can get my Yeezy back. 


While writing this, I was listening to Kanye on my ipod and came up with some reasons Kanye needs to come back:


Reason #1- Because his TRUE fans miss him. He just up and left us to deal with artists and producers that we never noticed before!


Reason #2- Im praying he's working on some DOPE music while he's gone, so I say he needs to come back because the music industry is missing the magic that he makes.


Reason #3- Although he doesn't need the help, Ye's big brother Hov is getting attacked by someone Ye AND Hov once considered family, Beanie Siegel and I feel like Kanye should definitely be mediating that nonsense. 


Reason #4- Who is out promoting the Air Yeezy's and the Louis Vuitton sneakers he has? I cant do all the work by myself! Lol..


Reason #5- Kid Cudi did 100,000+ his first week, and there was no celebration party with Ye gone. Lupe dropped a mixtape on Turkey day and nobody is going hard for it like I know Kanye would.


Reason #6- Its just not the same without him around! Point blank, period. 


So Kanye, take this as a plea from a LOYAL fan, someone who believes you are a GENIUS, and come back into the spotlight!

Ryan Leslie's "Transition"


I am the first person to admit when I have misjudged someone. Ryan Leslie is one of the people I misjudged. I knew dude was ill, but it wasnt until I went to his listening session and he explained his upcoming album, "Transition" to us and I saw clearer. I fell in love with his genius and I want to share it with you.


Transition

Im BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

Did anybody miss me? I know I been playing myself, abandoning Kandyyams for Global Grind. I'm not gonna do it anymore. I PROMISE.

On a serious note- Can I tell yall what I've learned in the past 3 months?

First, I learned that this guy I was feeling REALLY WASNT INTO ME. He was actually the inspiration for a previous post I had done on that subject (this one). I just didnt understand how someone approached me and when I wanted to make plans it never went anywhere. Like wtf u shouldnt have brought it HERE, if you was gonna do that. Im too old to be playing around. Shit was crazy, I had to get outta that situation before it got out of hand and I started feeling more stupid. No hard feelings.

I also learned that blogging is not what I thought it was. When I made this blog, I had no idea where I was going with it. It started as an online journal and then I started putting up clips and pics, taking on the persona of a blogger. Sites like Necole Bitchie and Bossip make it look easy, but once you're on the inside and you see how stuff gets conjured up and passed around, you'd be like "whaaaaa"? Its a risky business, this blogging thing! You have to be careful not to build/break the wrong relationships or else it OVER.

Im learning more about myself, too. I learned that im progressing and that I rather stay in the house than to surround myself with people I feel aren't. Its like, how long can you be doing the same thing? I call it "going nowhere fast". I've been correcting my wrongs and working on myself and I amaze myself everyday. My thing is, how come you don't want to progress like Im doing? Life is crazy, I swear.

No way am I content in where I am in life BUT, im happier than I was 3 months ago. I've done alot since I decided to turn my writing hobby into something serious.

I think y'all should follow me.
