Kanye West Tweets Views on Abortion, Birth Control & ‘Gold Diggin Bitches’
an abortion can cost a ballin’ niggas up to 50gs maybe a 100. Gold diggin’ bitches be getting pregnant on purpose. #STRAPUP my niggas!”

@KanyeWest
In other abortion news, Kanye West does what he does best…stick his foot in his mouth. In a recent Twitter rant Kanye decided to share his own beliefs about “niggas”, gold diggers, pregnancy and abortion.
@KanyeWest “an abortion can cost a ballin’ niggas up to 50gs maybe a 100. Gold diggin’ bitches be getting pregnant on purpose. #STRAPUP my niggas!”
This guy might just be the only subject even the most experienced crisis management PR firm would stay clear of. Twitter is like this dude’s subconscious. If the rest of us often speak before we think, this guy tweets before he does either. Naturally the tweet caused an uproar and his followers weren’t pleased. Many fired back in objection, some retweeted with commentary, some unfollowed and follower and singer Lily Allen, (can’t say I know who she is but she) had this to say:
@lilyroseallen: “never has a tweet put me in such a bad mood,” she tweeted earlier today in reference to West’s post. “This is wrong on so many levels.”
This lead to a clarification I guess of sorts?
@KanyeWest “It ain’t happen to me but I know people.”
That’s about as close to an apology as we’ll get on this one. But hey give the guy Highbrid brownie points for staying real. I mean lets disect this. There’s obviously nothing wrong with “Strapping Up.” I mean I encourage it. Abortions…yeah depending on who you are might cost “a ballin nigga” a lot of money. “Gold Digging Bitches?” Yeah there are a few of them out there… are there a few of them out there? I’m sure! Its just the overall concoction of mixing all these comments collectively that makes this statement toxic. Match that with the author and viola…you have major controversy.

I know who Lily Allen is. My wife likes her music, she was on a Common song, off of the Finding Forever album. She aight…. Nice Pic!!!!
.
Alot of these people on Twitter used is as a platform to vent their inner thoughts. He had something on his mind, and his got it off his mind. Without the background story behind his posting he continued to make himself look like an ass…..
.
In his defense my wife always claims to feel sorry for guys for two reasons; 1. How believable some transgendered/ transexuals can be, and how some guys probably cant tell until the pants come down. And 2. How some females would have babies with guys just to lock them down or for a check…. I guess Kanye was tweeting about the latter….. as ineloquent as he could…. Wasn’t his mom an educator???
I not gonna comment on the abortion issue cause I could be on that for awhile. I just wanted to say I agree with your wife (on the feeling sorry for a man…). And I also feel sorry for ya’ll on the aspect of women using their legal power…such as using the kids…and domestic calls. I have a few male friends that I have seen go through some shit.
Lilly Allen SHOULD NOT be having her FLAT ASS out to the public and worse, have it photographed!!! That’s as bad as Kanye’s crap.
LOL!!!!
LMAO!!! That’s exactly what I’m saying. She reminded me of that FLAT back Bride of Blackenstein skit Nicki Minaj did a few weeks ago! Lilly Allen’s band should have played that womp womp womp music!!! LOL!! As for Kanye, I ain’t even mad at his comment. Its 100% true. And it happens to regular niggas as well, not just the ballers Yeezy…
I can 4 sure Co sign that shit ….B.E.B it happened 2 me once , women nowadays just want a “sponsor” as we call em in Cali4nia since a majority not all but a majority do not want 2 put their feet 2 the concrete and make their own chedda,men never know if that child is theirs unless they have mad trust 4 the female , like my stupid ass did. U will never see a woman on Maury get’n a DNA test 4 her child Lol. So what Kanye said was mad true but please DO NOT SAY UR SORRY I H8 WHEN PPL APOLOGIZE! U MEANT IT! MAN UP ABOUT IT!I AIN’T SAYING SHE IS A GOLD DIGGER BUT SHE WILL EVEN JACK A BROKEY BROKE N!…..U KNOW THE REST.
I had chick try to put a child on me cause I had more dough than the dude she had to know was the real daddy. It does happen. Ask any dude that plays a professional sports or any chick in any club in Atlanta on at Friday or Saturday. Do you really think Amber Rose is wit Wiz Khalifa for his looks?? Come on son!
If in doubt, do the test n remove all doubt. if u KNOW its yours then own it. But we as people shouldnt be puttin ourselves into that kinda situation anyway. Dont go shoppin for a$$ in the clubs. go to the supermarkets. book stores. college campus libraries.. yea.. ive done my homework..
U don’t think gold diggers go 2 the Supermarket or go 2 college , read books , They go 2 college and read up on how 2 be a Gold Digger and go 2 get groceries while looking 4 Sponsor.Lol
Some of the best gold diggers go to church every sunday!!! … after washing off the dirt from saturday night!!!
