Kanye West was sued last Friday for missing thousands of dollars of lease payments on a 2003 Mercedes G500. DaimerChrysler Financial Services filed the suit and is asking for $53,747 in damages along with accrued payments, interest and late fees.
The biggest mystery here is why Kanye West has to lease a car when he has roughly a bajillion dollars. With that kind of money he can just buy wherever he wants to go and have it shipped to his house. Well not really, but how cool would that be? Too cool for school, that’s who. Wait. What?

What’s the mystery about why Kanye would have to lease a car? The answer is obvious, George Bush doesn’t care about black people, that’s why…
I know for sure that’s the reason I’m driving a 1995 Ford Taurus anyway.

sweetcheeks | May 10, 2006 at 9:43 am
I distinctly remember him blathering on about his penchant for porn… that stuff gets expensive.
If you’re spending so much time and money “punching the clown” that you can’t make your car payments, you very well may have a problem.
Spacedog | May 10, 2006 at 9:43 am
Doesn’t the dealership know that modern-day reincarnations of Jesus Christ are exempt from earthly, human things like lease payments and financial accountability?
I can’t wait til Our Holy Kanye calls them greedy lost souls out in his next joint.
Italian Stallion | May 10, 2006 at 9:50 am
I’m glad after all that money he still shows his true color………………

how can someone so fuckin rich NOT pay their car bills? a lease, no less!!
@7 that shit made me spit out my bloody mary!!!!
Jacq | May 10, 2006 at 10:34 am
Did he lease a 3 year-old car, or did it seriously take them this long to litigate? Don’t they give a lot of those cars to people, just so that they’ll be seen in them?
Damages? Like that actually hurt MBUSA? Muthafuckers. Tryin’ to keep a black man down. Blame it on the Germans.
hurley | May 10, 2006 at 10:34 am
his face gets on my nerves.
Astriastar | May 10, 2006 at 10:41 am
I hate him. He is so irritating. I’d love to kick those big ass horse teeth down his narcissistic throat.
PapaHotNuts | May 10, 2006 at 10:43 am
You know the saying, “you give a man an inch, he’ll take a mile. You give a black man an inch, and he’ll steal a flat screen of the back of a truck and load it into a stolen car full of crack and 40′s.”
sweetcheeks | May 10, 2006 at 10:49 am
Oh, Papa, you’re back! I stand behind the saying, “There are three things you can’t give a black guy: a black eye, a fat lip, and a lease on a Mercedes-Benz G500.”

Someone beat me to the punch about knocking in his big retarded teeth. What an stupid untalented fuck. I officially wish cancer upon him and John Leguizamo.
BarbadoSlim | May 10, 2006 at 11:05 am
I see the Klan’s all here.
Land-Man | May 10, 2006 at 11:07 am
The Klan? Kanye is the biggest racist in the world, next to Barry Bonds. I wish cancer on him as well.
tinkerbelle | May 10, 2006 at 11:07 am
Q. what’s long and hard on kanye?
A. 3rd grade
I’m in luv with Land-Man, Papa & BarbadoSlim!
Praz | May 10, 2006 at 11:11 am
Win the Super Bowl and drive off in a Hyundai.
Conductor71 | May 10, 2006 at 11:13 am
He probably crashed that one aswell and was too busy experiencing a life-changing epiphany to make the payments. I’m sure he’ll tell us ALL about it in his next 600 albums
DonLes91 | May 10, 2006 at 11:15 am
Kayne’s not racist. Pam Anderson was in that video where he was Evel Knevel and Anna Nicole was in that workout video. Yes, I’m a fan, shoot me.
BigJim | May 10, 2006 at 11:16 am
Aren’t we being a little hard on this guy. I mean, Anna Nicole Smith said he was “a freakin’ genius.”
And surely Anna knows genius when she sees it. Just the other day she was seen telling a rock that it was “a freakin’ genius.”
PapaHotNuts | May 10, 2006 at 11:20 am
C’mon Land-Man! No land-cock, land-balls, or land-meat comments? That shit is funny. Break out the good stuff today.
Jacq | May 10, 2006 at 11:30 am
#20 – He DID get the lease on the Mercedes. That’s the whole point of the story. Way to make it case-specific! The third thing is a job. Frickin’ idiot. I fucking hate you – and yes, I’m comfortable using the word hate.
Fisher55 | May 10, 2006 at 11:31 am
Land-Man, diversifying his output?
Astriastar | May 10, 2006 at 11:31 am
Gimme a break #28…back in the old days, racist white guys used black people to entertain them but they were still racist. Whiny-ass Kanye is racist. He proves it whenever he opens his stupid mouth. Just because he has white bimbos dancing in his videos doesn’t make him Affirmative Action.
BarbadoSlim | May 10, 2006 at 11:33 am
Oh I see, the new/old conservative/fascistoid(not a word)tactic of calling the other guy what you are.
Dr.Rokter | May 10, 2006 at 11:40 am
I agree with Papa, Land-Man. This thread needs a Land Statement.
And I was Black Jesus way before Kayne West was. I used to write my byline on Gideon’s Bibles in motel rooms, but I still haven’t seen a fucking dime in royalties.
roflynsolo | May 10, 2006 at 11:40 am
It’s okay to be racist.
BigJim | May 10, 2006 at 11:42 am

Shoot you? Well, I don’t have a gun, but I’m sure all the guys in Kanye’s posse do, so maybe one of them could. Hopefully they can aim well enough while holding their pistols sideways.
I hate for you to get gut shot and die slowly.
BigJim | May 10, 2006 at 11:44 am

Only against natives.
suzy | May 10, 2006 at 11:45 am
maybe he thought it he would lease a car just in case he wanted to trade it in for something better?
but what a jackass for not making payments
roflynsolo | May 10, 2006 at 11:50 am
No truly, it’s okay to be racist, I generally don’t like people.
BigJim | May 10, 2006 at 11:58 am
I’d like to ammend my previous comment and add Chinese drivers.
Danielabella | May 10, 2006 at 12:03 pm
So, it’s okay to be racist if you’re white but not okay if you’re black? LOL! Bigots have to be the most uneducated, uncouth and disgusting people on the planet. Besides Tom Cruise that is.
roflynsolo | May 10, 2006 at 12:03 pm
BigJim, who exactly are natives, and chinese drivers are no worse than, say men drivers.
roflynsolo | May 10, 2006 at 12:04 pm
Danielabella-I’m brown.
Feed_Me_Chocolate | May 10, 2006 at 12:12 pm
Papa, you’re all about race today, aren’t you? Fabulous, carry on. Can you make a joke about Mexicans next?
Gerald Tarrant | May 10, 2006 at 12:19 pm
I think someone needs to jerk off in Danielabella’s salad.
Like most PC America, racism is viewed as a one way street. If a black father says he only wants his black daughter marrying a black man, everyone says “awww, that just him being cultural (or keepin’ it real yo)” but fire and brimstone for the white man who says he only wants his white daughter with a white man.
I stand by my challenge, and black American that can tell me what part of Africa their ancestors are from can claim African-American. I can tell you what city in Italy my relatives are from. I can tell you the name of the boat they came over on. I can tell you what and where the tribe the other part of my lineage is from.
Feed_Me_Chocolate | May 10, 2006 at 12:23 pm
#46, bravo, I couldn’t agree more.
Italian Stallion | May 10, 2006 at 12:26 pm
@44 I’m sorry………
@46 I’m from Niger, Africa……..
UNWASHEDMASSES | May 10, 2006 at 12:27 pm
I’m sure Daimler/Chrysler is a racist organization and they are just financially persecuting Kanye for being the one thing America hates most, a successful Black man. You know that will be the spin, not that Kanye can’t pay his bills, not that he’s grown up accustomed to the government (read, you, me and our tax dollars hard at work)picking up the tab for everything. In the end, when his brief, megalomaniacal career is over, he’ll revert to the old ways and declare bankruptcy and you, me and our tax dollars will pick up the tab yet again. Jesus may walk, but apparently he doesn’t know how to write a check.
Feed_Me_Chocolate | May 10, 2006 at 12:30 pm
Did you ever see that T-shirt:
