50 Cent, Rihanna other artists now as cool as Kanye West –
Many seemed shocked when I stated that Kanye West was a clear identifier of where we are headed for the next wave of pop culture in society. Well, let’s take the tweets above as proof of this point. Many top shelf mainstream artists with Twitter accounts have them controlled by their labels and are pretty much an RSS feed for their websites or a newswire of a multitude of their accomplishments. However, the man from the 31st Century changed all of that, as when Yeezy commandeered his own Twitter account from Day One, recognized mainstream artists like 50 and Rihanna decided to claim their accounts for themselves. 50’s account reads like a parody of his thug persona, while so far, the most entertaining thing Rihanna has stated is that she’s perfectly aware that many people insult her abnormally protruding forehead. This trend will be one to watch as the lines that divide fans from artists become not even blurred, but ultimately invisible.
