Stroking Kanye West’s Ego
The Seattle Times recently gave an excellent review of Kanye West’s newly launched ‘Glow in the Dark’ tour. Now, the LA Times is following suit by stroking the rapper’s ego some more. Who needs awards when you have reviews like this? Esteemed critic Anne Powers reviewed Kanye’s concert saying “An apocalyptic space opera…a show that carried his braggadocio into the realm of myth itself…This was pure comic-book adventure…But the real message came through those unstoppable images. Glow in the Dark raises the bar for arena tours as no show has since U2’s 1992 Zoo TV breakthrough. It’s that innovative and galvanizing…the ridiculous, beautiful heights of West’s heroics.” He was compared to U2! You can’t beat that.
