Fuck it, bring 'em all back next season. Casey, too. These Raps entertain me, and I'm okay with 59 regular season wins, winning a round (or two) and then losing to THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL-TIME.— Toronto Mike (@torontomike) May 8, 2018

Kanye West makes it very difficult to defend him, so I've always stuck to the music. Kanye's persona is brash, nutty, and typically ill-informed. Often he's trolling, but sometimes it's difficult to tell. He dropped this song last night, which is a rather brilliant troll job if you ask me.
