Kanye Doesn?t Like to Read

Ξ May 29th, 2009 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Book, Kanye West |

In a recent interview, Kanye West revealed that he doesn?t like to read. The rapper said ?I am not a fan of books. I would never want a book’s autograph. I am a proud non-reader of books. I like to get information from doing stuff like actually talking to people and living real life.? For someone who doesn?t like to read, it sounds kind of foolish that he now tells everyone to go out and buy a book that he just co-wrote. ?Thank You and You?re Welcome? isn?t a long read though. It only features 52 pages, some of which are blank and others just have a few words on them. Kanye says that ?This is a collection of thoughts and theories.?
