And so here is “Donda,” a PR spectacle for the summer of 2021.
It’s a hit, and it’s pretty good, the tracks are excellent, highly listenable and accessible.
But now: how short are memories?
It was only a year ago that Kanye West was running for president, supporting Donald Trump, meeting him in the Oval Office.
It was May 2018 when Kanye announced that “slavery is a choice.”
Everyone was outraged as Kanye melted down, carried on, ranted on Twitter like a loony toon.
Is all forgiven? Do we forgive and forget and just move on? “Donda” will be a referendum on short term memory loss.
Stay tuned…
