If you are a fan of the classic movie 'Akira' by Katsuhiro Otomo check out this video by Kanye...

You'll see some close resemblances to parts of the movie!

Kind of cool even if I'm not a Kanye fan.

I was expecting him to transform into a grotesque amorphous fetus and lay down some serious beats.

Honestly, I was thinking that too.

Man, I've still yet to see Akira (still sitting on my Netflix list).

What kinda geek am I?...

"Kanye West doesn't care about mutant (Tetsuo) people!!!" :lol:

But I hate that guy's guts. Truly, I do.

I like it. it's not his best work, but I can take it. I was expecting better shots of the bike and like was said before I was expecting the blobing tetsuo. I think South Park did this a little better.

"I can't believe I'm watching a rap video"

That's what I was thinking. Also bitterly disappointed that he didn't turn into a giant amoeba and burst one of those dancing girls.
