South Park Humbles Kanye

Rapper takes to blog to thank writers

Share

(AP) – South Park managed to achieve what no one else could: Taming Kanye West’s ego. West, self-proclaimed “voice of this generation,” was mocked on Wednesday’s show as being so narcissistic he couldn’t understand a joke at his expense, AP reports. The rapper responded yesterday with a humbled blog entry, admitting that “having the crazy ego is played out in my life and career.”

“South Park murdered me last night and it’s pretty funny,” he wrote. “It hurts my feelings but what can you expect from South Park! I actually have been working on my ego though. I just want to be a doper person, which starts with me not always telling people how dope I think I am.”
