Fame Kills: Kanye x Lady Gaga

September 23rd, 2009  |  Published in Music  |  Comment

Here is the promo/teaser video for Kanye West & Lady Gaga’s joint-concert tour coming this Fall: Fame Kills.

I was originally planning to go see it in Vegas during Pacman vs. Cotto weekend, but probably would see it locally (San Jose maybe). I figure it might just be too much stuff going on that weekend in Vegas. And yes, you might be saying: “but what about the whole Team Taylor > Kanye / VMA debacle, etc., etc.?” Yah, kind of a bad move.

Not the thing to do at the time. Honesty > Tact, maybe? But as Alexander Pope would put it, “to err is human, to forgive divine.” And yes, there are far more things going on around the World that most people should be aware of (myself included): Iran Election, Darfur, Global Warming, …

Anyways, one thing that I have to be truthful and give props to is that his Glow In The Dark Tour (w/ Lupe Fiasco, Rihanna, and N.E.R.D.) was sick! Not to mention, like it or not, you can’t deny that the Music he produces is unique and memorable to the masses.

Last but not least, for more tour dates and/or info, check out famekillstour.com
