kanye_press.jpgKanye West has signed a deal with New Line Cinema and Anonymous Content to create a feature-length film inspired by his music, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The film is said to create a portrait of the country as seen through the eyes of West and several filmmakers. There are expected to be six writers and 10-12 directors involved in the project, who will each create short stories that will be linked by a common narrative. The untitled project will be produced by Richard Brown and Steve Golin of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind fame. The film will feature old and new music from the Chicago MC/producer, as well as mark his big-screen acting debut.

    I’m not too big on rappers doin movies, but this concept sounds pretty hot. And even tho he’s cocky as fuck, when Kanye tells you he’s gonna do somethin he does it, and it’s hot.

    Kanye is the most overrated emcee of all time. He’s almost 30 still pushing the college dropout shit & the college dropout was’nt even his concept. He DID’NT WRITE ANY of the bars THAT MADE HIM FAMOUS. Kanye, we both know if it was’nt for me you would have NEVER WON A SINGLE GRAMMY. That’s okay though cuz I KNOW you’ll NEVER win another. P*ssy

  • DEREK

    I guess you could say he’s a top 5 producer though….

  • DEREK

    NOT!!!

    Hey thanks for the call back from your a&r since you probably would’nt even have one if it was’nt for me. You know, since your a hi-porfile celeb and all they’re making a new cadillac limousine w. bullet proof doors that can take anything up to a 44 MAGNUM!! Since you like to steal, I think that may be a very wise investment. I was responsible for about 50% of the damage 50 did to murda inc., that is nothing compared to what I’m capable of doing to you.
