Next in our ongoing, but very infrequent series of “Indie Rockers : They’re Just Like Us!” (although this case, we just went with “musicians,” rapper and pop star seemed too wordy) where we closely follow and enthusiastically chart indie-rock publications utter fascination with their idols’ mundane and bromidic everyday lives. This ridiculous installment features Kanye West and Beyonce.
Apparently Kanye hasn’t blogged in a few months now (since his mother’s death?). Well, never fear he’s back at it and guess what? He’s playing connect four! And losing to Beyonce!
Simply Incredible and quite moving.
Both Stereogum and Pitchfork have devoted posts to this amazing turn of events. Brooklyn Vegan is surely only moments behind on this breaking development is all over it like a fake Sufjan Stevens album.
What we’re sort of incredulous about is that none of the sharp-eyed indie-rock triumvirate has posted about Kanye’s choice of lumber jacket. Maybe they’re sensitive to the fact that he’s still grieving and his fashion choices might not be on point for a few months. Call it a freebie.
