      Wow… My friend Emily has just married to a handsome wealthy black man. They met through ~~~ MìxedŚìngle.Çoм ~ ~~Serious interracial dating is an ideal platform for afro romance for black & white singles. So, if you want to look for people with which you can date, you are at the right place.You can meet(lawyers,busy professionals, benefactors. models, celebrities, etc….)perhaps you can have a try.

    • 4JesusbyJesus May 29, 2013

      Of Course u wouldn’t, ur not a Christian.

  2. S****** Blonde May 18, 2013

    “Like a Virgin, Erotica” by MADONNA.

    “ANIMAL (F**K LIKE A BEAST)” by W.A.S.P.

    “F*** Me Jesus” by Marduk.

    The List Could Go on and On…Nothing wrong with that.

  3. My Forehead Tho May 18, 2013

    He’s really confusing right now. Hopefully he’s returning to his ‘Jesus Walk’ days and this title is meant to be something positive and not blasphemous.

    His new song is amazing.

    • DaHotNig May 18, 2013

      I was amped after I heard the new song but after seeing this title…f*** kanye and this b******* ain’t nobody got time for that! PLUS his new video was on 66 buildings in 6 countries = 666! !! I just want to enjoy the music but that h** scares me!

      • truth(icki’s B**** ASS STANS can EAT ME honey!! Yall b**** is a STANK P**** FLOP chile! (puckers lips like Drake)) May 19, 2013

        B****

    • 4JesusbyJesus May 29, 2013

      If it is not meant to be blasphemous, then why not choose a greek god? He knows exactly what he is doing and Kanye is no christian. For him to think of his self as Christ is indeed blasphemous, this is the same reason why lucifer (satan) was kicked out of heaven because he wanted to be God!

  4. TheCreat1veOne May 18, 2013

    Any stan who has their fave’s name in the place of Jesus within their username (Beysus, Rihsus, Cisus to name a few) should have no right to say this is wrong…

    That being said, the album name is a little controversial, but at this point I’m used to Kanye’s antics and am not really shocked about this at all.

    • LA LA May 18, 2013

      But I love GOD though!

  5. RihNaj May 18, 2013

    Hope Nicki is on the album I need another “Monster Verse” to slay me!!

  6. JARED (WHITE DUDE) May 18, 2013

    Are people still actually using ‘Religious Controversy’ to sell records? YAWN. Madonna was doing that 25 year’s ago…

    And “Yeezus”? Seriously…

    I’ve nothing to say except ‘Thats between him and JESUS’.

    SMH.

    • Darianna Jones May 18, 2013

      Right! Like it doesn’t even phase me anymore. It’s so blatantly geared towards being offensive enough to draw attention to the album. Smh #Next

      • Dfrek May 19, 2013

        PSALMS 82:6 “I say, ‘You are gods; you are all children of the Most High.”

  7. Darianna Jones May 18, 2013

    We all know Kanye is full of himself, so it shouldn’t even be a surprise. I don’t worship him, so I don’t have a problem with it. He knows controversy sells, and he knows the dumb sheep will raise hell about it and give him all the attention he wants.

  8. rihking May 18, 2013

    Americas getting stupider and stupider by the second Religious Controversy? i cannot.

  9. Queen Barb May 18, 2013

    Omg devil worshipers everywhere he’s goin to hell for that.

  10. PINK STARR May 18, 2013

    ATTENTION W****

    • kelly slaying May 18, 2013

      Tell me about it..

  11. Peace Unity & Love May 18, 2013

    Yall think this is all fun & games but these artist are really corrupting the youth smh kanye is a lost man he’s not the same person he was when he first came out i can tell he’s in pain & batting demons the music industry is really a dark & lonely world people need to open their eyes s*** is getting real this year.

    • Os May 18, 2013

      I got love for kanye but i have to agree with you on this one.

    • God loves me May 18, 2013

      Agreed.

    • kelly slaying May 18, 2013

      you are so right… i pray for him to make it out.

  12. Lovebird May 18, 2013

    He’ll get so much attention from this, especially from the illuminati believing n** jobs.

    • Peace Unity & Love May 18, 2013

      Your obviously a sheep theirs so many signs that these people are evil & dark but your so mentally f***** up you think this s*** is normal & not a big deal.

      • Anne May 18, 2013

        I’ve gone back and forth on it but I think it’s probably all for publicity. I don’t think they are anymore evil than anyone who uses ploys or stunts to make money. I guess you could say they worship money (like a lot of people do) in a way, not the devil. Or maybe they (money/devil/evil) are one in the same, you know what they say…money is the root of all evil.

    • 4JesusbyJesus May 29, 2013

      @ANNE It’s the LOVE of money that is the root of all evil. It’s obvious that some if not all of these celebs are evil cause they love the money so much that they will do any and everything for it, including things like religious controversy!

  13. Kim Kardashian STAN May 18, 2013

    Illuminati?

    After when Kim gets her baby, I want her to learn how to dance/act/sing I want her to be an Artist!

    JAM is my song still to this day (REAL MUSIC)

    Way better than a Nick Garage, Beyonqua, Rihanqua, Rita Whora, Adele and a MOFO J-HO.

    • lexi May 18, 2013

      Are you serious. I like kim as a celebrity, but honey Jam really. Based off that she is not becoming a real or credit artist anytime soon.

  14. Mimi Carey May 18, 2013

    So People think its ok to act like their gods? really if this was Beyonce & she named her album Beysus all hell would break lose but since its kanye it ain’t a big deal.

  15. Lovebird May 18, 2013

    @Peace Unity & Love

    There is no such thing as the illuminati. Those that believe there is are delusional.

    Kanye knows how to push your buttons, he’s been doing it for years now.

  16. Britney Stan Ooh la la May 18, 2013

    Britney needs to name her next album Godney then.

  17. POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

    YAWN.

    christian ppl”mainly white people and hopefully african american ones ” should do something about it and boycott his material , hurt him where it hurt him the most , his pocket.

    White women did it with “Rick ross” and White folks did it as well with “Lil wayne” , this Attention seekers only listen when you hurt their pockets , we deserve a better Art without anyone from any group being offended.
    African american people , it’s time to make a move , your Reputation is being trashed and you can see the scheme already , ha ?

    • Lovebird May 18, 2013

      Sorry, hun there’s freedom of speech in America. You cannot expect everyone to riot over art like the Muslims did over a movie. It’s his way of expressing himself, get over it.

      • POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

        so “YOUR” freedom of expression Won’t make me Express “MY” Opinion ?

        Also I think Freedom is Wrong when you Harm others.

        My spin on it :

        You are Free all you want as Long as You don’t harm others.

      • Lovebird May 18, 2013

        So who is he harming? Christians? Then don’t listen to his music, it’s not like he’s forcing anyone to listen to it.

        If you’re so offended, don’t buy it, protests are unnecessary over this, especially in a free society.

      • POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

        I don’t Listen to his Music since He Smashed KK , lost all the respect i Had for him.

      • Peace Unity & Love May 18, 2013

        He’s corrupting the youth sweetheart right along with Rihanna Gaga Beyonce & the rest of them

      • Lovebird May 18, 2013

        Then you shouldn’t worry about what he titles his album.

      • Lovebird May 18, 2013

        “He’s corrupting the youth sweetheart right along with Rihanna Gaga Beyonce & the rest of them”

        Last time I checked, there is a little “Parental Advisory” LOGO on most of Kanye West’s CDs, those youths have got parents, blame them for letting their kids listen to Kanye West.

        Kanye West, Rihanna, Gaga are not responsible for the youth, they are artists and people choose to buy their music or not, it is not Kanye, Rihanna or Gaga’s fault, they don’t force anyone to buy their music or even listen to it.

    • S****** Blonde May 18, 2013

      I’m not religious thou.

      • POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

        No one Asked to be Tho , But If you want your Views to be respected , you gotta respect the other ppl’s views as well. 😉

      • S****** Blonde May 18, 2013

        You right, it’s good to express yourself without implicate other people who has a different points of view.

      • POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

        I don’t wanna Give you the wrong impression …… 😉

      • S****** Blonde May 18, 2013

        You didn’t, i’m actually with you in this one, your avi is still shady as hell tho.

      • POP ROYALTY (Bohemian Grove) May 18, 2013

        It is a rihanna song 😉

        and i’m glad you agree , @LoveBird is trying to prove an invalid point , but she can try ……..

        and yup , i’m going to keep it for a long time till maybe the 8th era , next nov hopefully 😀

      • S****** Blonde May 18, 2013

        I keep hoping for a new album, i want her to eclipse the Reductive girl, i should try to find shady avi as well.

    • 4JesusbyJesus May 29, 2013

      I so agree with you Pop Royalty!

  18. Lovebird May 18, 2013

    I wonder why people are acting like Kanye doesn’t rap about some deep stuff, there’s obviously more to this, Kanye is an artist.

  19. yeh yeh May 18, 2013

    everytime i read about kanye’s god complex i…

    yeh… thank you. GN

  20. ,. May 18, 2013

    Like i said i love Kanye,but i don’t like that name of the album i really can’t support that name,he a great great artist but come one now,he didn’t have to give that album that name to get people talking he didn’t need no negative to get people talking is music is already doing that in a positive way…..sigh i hope he change the name but knowing him he won’t.

  21. God loves me May 18, 2013

    No positivity will come from that album title. As a Christian i could never support this.

  22. D May 18, 2013

    He should have named his album ‘Kanyallah’ – he could have garnered and capitalized on even more controversy (fatwa style) lol.

  23. Lovebird May 18, 2013

    I honestly do not see what the big deal is, if religious symbolism can be accepted in Rock Music, why is Rap music an exception. People just need to get over themselves, Kanye West runs your lives I see.

  24. Cassie Lover May 18, 2013

  25. Aquarius May 18, 2013

    Kanye just being Kanye. Wanting some controversial attention.

  26. SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) May 18, 2013

    Kanye Needs help!

  33. Lovebird May 18, 2013

    “it is a weeping and a moaning and a gnashing of teeth” is what the Jamaican dude is shouting. Kanye has been doing this for years and you have a problem with it now??? OK.

    Black people should be the last ppl on earth believe in this stupid Christianity bull s*** . You m************ are so caught up in a religion the s**** you for over 200 yrs. they use the bible to justify slavery. BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE ONLY RACE WHO DON’T WORSHIP a god that look like them. instead they worshiped a white Jesus that was drawn by Micheal angelo. God did not create man. Man created god.

    • KEY May 18, 2013

      You’re so stupid, it’s actually amusing.

      Jesus is not white dumb ass…..but I guess a non-Christian wouldn’t know that.

      Some white people believe that they worship a white God. Lets keep in mind that their the ONLY people who believe that God is white, which is meaningless to the rest of the world who actually goes by the Bible when determining his physical characteristics.

      Now, I’m going to let you be a big girl and do the logic on your own. 🙂

    • YOU FOOL May 18, 2013

      I’d rather believe in a God, to find out there isn’t one than to not believe in a God and find out there is. I don’t think there is a more perfect time for me to tell you to go to hell.. 🙂

  35. BEYSUS OVER JESUS May 18, 2013

    YEEZUS IS A RAP GOD, SO WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL.

  36. KEY May 18, 2013

    Had it been anybody else I’d be surprised, but Kanye?

    *yawn* NEXT….

  37. MC May 18, 2013

    Mess to the fullest.

    I’m still here for the album and for Ye.

    I was worried about this album being like Cruel Summer but New S**** resorted my faith. I’m not particularly enticed by some of his rumored single titles or this album title, but that doesn’t matter at the end of the day, the music is all that matters.

    People shouldn’t be surprised though, this is Kanye West, he loves and breathes himself.

    I’m ready for the follow-up to his last classic, MDTF

  38. hellioss May 18, 2013

    First album in 2004, Kanye West was singing “Jesus walks with me”.

    Now in 2013, he releases”Yeezus”, “I am a God”…

  39. Mark111 May 18, 2013

    I’m a huge fan, but we’re done here. He really do thinks he’s Jesus and Jay Z thinks he’s God. JeHOVAh. Not here with that crap.

  40. Miss M May 18, 2013

    Are people actually surprised by this coming from Kanye?

  41. LYNNLOE33 May 18, 2013

    Wow… My friend Emily has just married to a handsome wealthy black man.

  42. cocobutta May 19, 2013

    Kanye being Kanye..

    With that spelling i’m paying the title but the most interesting thing will be how the album cover looks.

    Side-eye is ready for him

  43. andrew May 19, 2013

    f*** you b*******, wish you will get what you deserve, i mean hell. i’m not a christian, i just respect jesus. in all cases, none cares about this!

  44. Jackieyonce May 19, 2013

    Kanye is still my Boyfriend!! Love him to Death. He’s my god

  45. JER May 19, 2013

    Ms West gets a gold star for this one

  46. 4JesusbyJesus May 29, 2013

    Beyonce thinks she’s a Queen or as Oprah says The Mistress of the universe, Jay-z thinks he is God, and kanye thinks he is Jesus. Bahaha all I can say is PRIDE COMES BEFORE DESTRUCTION. This delusional plane they are riding called pride is about to come crashing down. Reality is about to hit them soon!
