50 Cent and Kanye West are the only ones selected to be GQ's "Men of the Year" who have no false modesty about it — both of the hip-hop stars justify their big egos in the mag's pages. But they also have more on their minds than just themselves.
Like George W. Bush, for one.
50 thinks the president is "incredible ... a gangsta." "I wanna meet George Bush, just shake his hand and tell him how much of me I see in him," 50 told GQ. If the rapper's felony conviction didn't prevent him from voting, 50 said he would have voted for Bush. (Damn it. Doesn't be know that all felons are supposed to vote Democrat? Get the memo, Fiddy) Meanwhile, Kanye basically called Bush a racist on national television (basically? no no, did) , and has since rethought his strategy for speaking out. "When NBC edited it out on the West Coast, that was a wakeup call," West told the magazine. "It let people know how censored we still are. This is supposed to be America, but you can't get your opinion out. (Oh Sweet God. It was a telethon to raise money for the storm-ravaged victims of a hurricane, not a town hall meeting, dumbass) There's all kinds of things I want to say, but I need to pace myself, to make sure my opportunities to say these things aren't taken away too abruptly." Kanye says after giving us entertainment, his next goal is to give us "inspiration." (I know 'Gold Digga' gives me inspiration...) 50's next goal? He wants to market a condom. ... (Heh. Like the Clinton condom line in China?)
