Kanye West is a humble man. Boasting really isn’t his style. He’s more of a gracious person who blushes when you compliment him, and looks down at his feet and says, “aww shucks.” So it’s quite shocking that Kanye would assume that the crown of the King of Pop should fall to him.
I’m kidding, of course. Kanye would be fighting for the title of Miss Wienerschnitzel if he knew it was up for grabs.
Kanye reportedly made the following statement regarding our current king-less pop kingdom:
“You know everyone loves and respects Michael but times change. It’s so sad to see Michael gone but it makes a path for a new King of Pop and I’m willing to take that on. There’s nobody who can match me in sales and in respect so it only makes sense for me to take over Michael’s crown and become the new King. First there was Elvis, then there was Michael, now in the 21st century it’s Kanye’s time to rule. I have nothing but respect for Michael but someone needs to pick up where he left off and there’s nobody better than me to do that. I am the new King of Pop.”
Kanye, “picking up where [Michael] left off” is not the best place to start. Maybe you’d want to pick up from about 20 years back.
Although the Pop Kingdom is a monarchy, it’s more of a democratic monarchy. The people have to vote you in- you can’t self-declare yourself King of Pop, Mr. West.
Think Kanye is as dead handsome as he does? Be sure to check out more Starzlife pics of him here!
