Ain't saying he's a golddigger

What's more golden than digging? Silence. Kanye West was arrested last night, making this quote from Wednesday a bit more over the top than usual.

"I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice," he said in an interview on Wednesday. "It's me settling into that position of just really accepting that it's one thing to say you want to do it and it's another thing to really end up being like Michael Jordan."

"There were people who had the potential to do it but they went on vacation, so when Justin [Timberlake] went on vacation I made albums," he said. "And it just came out to be that."

We know he's speaking musically, because there is no way that Justin Timberlake would be the voice of anything more prestigious than a Disney character cartoon.
