Not sure who this is, but I can only imagine that we’ll be hearing more from her soon. Big Sean’s verse is partly recycled from Dance (A$$), by the way.
@KanyeWest, @BigSean, @2Chainz & @Pusha_T – Mercy (Video)
G.O.O.D Music drops off the first video from their compilation album, titled Cruel Summer. Some folks may not like the black & white look but I think this video is hot. Definitely looking forward to Kanye’s movie (of the same name) that should be dropping soon. Hopefully we’ll see an actual release date.
Kanye West (@KanyeWest) Spazzes On Concertgoer For Using Laser Pointer
Lol. From TMZ:
One fan at Kanye and Jay-Z’s “Watch the Throne” show learned that lesson the hard way last night in Paris. When the guy flashed some sort of pen laser onstage … Yeezy shut down the show and shouted, “You see this guy right here with the green laser? Don’t f**k up everybody’s show … it’s not a f**king game!”
The crowd rained down boos (en français, of course) — then Kanye went in on the dude a little more … “You gonna get f**ked up, kicked out, and all that s**t. Chill the f**k out.”
Pardon Kanye’s french.

Word: Kanye West’s Charity Foundation Is No More
The New York Times reports today that the Kanye West Foundation, a charity founded four years ago to battle high-school dropout rates, has shut down. The Times also makes the charity sound shady, pointing out that from 2007 to 2009, it took in an average of $492,000 and then handed out grants in total averaging only $18,080. [NYT]
