Why won’t Obama let Ye be great? Kidding, of course. Although the headline looks bad, this time Obama threw a lighthearted jab at Yeezy.
Via an interview w/ Atlantic Magazine:
“Although I like Kanye,” Obama continues, with an easy smile. “He’s a Chicago guy. Smart. He’s very talented.” He is displaying his larger awareness of the question, looking relaxed, cerebral but friendly, alive to the moment, waiting for me to get to the heart of the matter.
“Even though you called him a jackass?,” I ask.“He is a jackass,” Obama says, in his likable and perfectly balanced modern-professorial voice. “But he’s talented.”
See — alls well that ends well. I’m guessing Obama loved the WTT album…
