But when a person in power just grabs your work, removes the branding you put on and passes it off as your own, that's dishonest and shameful.

Keep in mind, Kanye is the guy who also interrupted an artists acceptance speech because he was upset his friend didn't win.bepster wrote: ↑October 12th, 2018, 8:20 amI will say that I would have assumed that a creative like Kanye would have a bit more respect for the work, time, resources, talent and effort that goes into producing original work.
