Well if my pfp is anything to go by..
Sure he’s losing (has lost?) his mind, but his discography is already legendary and has done so much for music.
FYI no one cares if you don’t care about Kanye - it’s not hard to simply not watch the livestream if it doesn’t interest you.

People think truth is subjective. It is not. There is objective truth. If someone says, "there is no such thing as absolute truth" just ask them if that statement is absolutely true.
Music. Great long time producer, writer, composer. Several Grammys influéncial even if a little mental consciousness adjusted (mental illness)Is this a good thing?
Yes it’s a GOOD thing. Considering all we heard was Beats, Lossless which many cannot use and Spatial audio is ALL we heard from Apple Music efforts related to Music in over a year.
While this is true, I don't think you two are reading "Live Your Truth" in the properly intended context. It's not about the subjective judgment (or misjudgment) of facts. The phrase/idea of living your truth has nothing to do with that. It's about living your life with conviction, and chasing down what drives you. Obviously, if your conviction is built on a house of cards (like, say, a stolen election), then that's a whole different story. Hahaha.
As for the subject at hand, agreed with the reasonable commenters. If you don't like Kanye, then (1) Why are you even taking the time to share that you don't like his music? (2) Kanye has definitely lost it a bit, but I will never take it away from him that he's a musical phenom. I still enjoy most of his music despite his scandals and illness. Many of our most beloved artists over time have suffered from a little bit of crazy — some have even killed themselves over it. That doesn't mean the mastery of their craft is no longer worth celebrating.
Regarding the track star - first time they’ve tested for Cannabis and did NOT inform the athletes of changes in testing something the governing body needs to communicate to athletes of the change prior to doing so.
you do know that grapefruit, poppyseeds and cranberry’s affects test results and could lead to false detections or incomplete results.
funny how Cannibis has never been known to give its user an energy before so yeah it would be stupid to have it thinking you’ll have an advantage in 100m or 4x 100m relay sprinting events. Lol. Cool saying but the execution is weak because the prize is in the taking and the restriction/ban doesn’t make sense.

Can think of about a billion reasons to why you're wrong
Haven't been crazy about Kanye's work recently, but he's always an artist I at least check out
In other words, be vulnerable, be you, don't conform just for the sake of conforming, dare to be bold, dare to be different, dare to wear your heart on your sleeve. Be you. Be confident. Dare to make your voice known, dare to make an impact on your family, community, and society. Freedom from the shackles of conformity or mediocrity.
It's certainly something that needs to be taken through the "what's okay with culture today" filter. There are a lot of muderers who's truth was killing people. that was their truth. they lived it. they're still in jail though.
Something smells fishy here.
As a competitor at the highest levels you 100 percent know what you can and can not put in your body legally as to play fair by the rules (legal contract) established by your sport's governing body. Every single Olympian or future Olympian knows they can't ingest Mary Jane, and doing so will break that contract you agreed upon. You have to have a big lapse of judgment to smoke weed right before the Olympics and or Olympic trials, or you have something else in mind.
Funny that Apple is supporting this behavior.

She knew the rules and got what she deserved (suspension), but that doesn't mean we should continue to stigmatize and punish people for using it.
Most people are finally waking up and realizing that it should be legalized.

Hey Apple, have you heard of the psychedelic rock band Jefferson Airplane? Those crazy cats are causing a real stir all over San Francisco Bay Area. You should sign them up!
How dare you bring thoughtful nuance into this discussion?!?!?
100% agree with you though.
The old men will yell at clouds, regardless.
I’m talking about blanket statement that everyone with small charges are released. That is unlikely given that 1/4 of the country has weed criminalized…Actually, it is. Recreational and medical use of marijuana is legal across most of the 50 states
Ohio just voted to legalize recreational marijuana. See a list of every state where cannabis is legal.
24 states and Washington, DC have legalized recreational marijuana. Cannabis is legal for medical purposes in 38 states and DC.www.businessinsider.com
Does it have to be "support" or "condemnation" and nothing else?Funny that Apple is supporting this behavior.
Maybe they think just Richardson is a great athlete and don't give a ****—rightfully so—that she smoked/smokes.
You keep saying “here” without saying where “here” is. The internet covers the whole planet. Could you please clarify?
