Kanye West to do manga 2006-06-07 by Honeymoon_Croon | 11 Comments | Scoop up a few Grammys? Check. Rant about the President on live TV? Check. Launch a line of preppy duds? Check. The next item on rap star KANYE WEST'S to-do list is to create a book in the style of Japanese manga comics with animator Bill Plympton. Plympton, best known for short films that appeared on MTV in the '80s, met West when drawing the raw, smudgy animation for the hip-hop star's video Heard 'Em Say. After the two hit it off, they decided to collaborate on a book based on West's lyrics for Simon & Schuster. Can a Kanye West line of baked goods be far behind?

weird.
| | |
Is it KAIN WEST?

^^ was that a joke? He rambles about people mispronouncing his name in, like all his songs. Alot of my friends are manga geeks (I'm not) so they might get this. Maybe I'll borrow it.

Now all he has to do is make myspace run out of buisness and he can rule the world.
| | |
Good on him.
| | |
Thats... interesting...

Manga is cool, but I'm not going NEAR this. I doubt, with almost everything in me, that this'll be good. >.o;;

Sounds awesome. KJ-52 (the "Dear Slim" guy) was also doing manga at one point, but it didn't go anywhere.
