Truth or Rumor is a staple thread on this blog so you're going to see a whole lot of misconceptions of the truth from the spinning celeb rumor mill. Here's the latest. Kanye West known for his harsh remarks is the new victim to truth or rumor. Reportedly West said in an issue of "Essence" that interracials are "mutts." I'm classifying this a truth or rumor on the premise of a possible typo. Calling interracial individuals "mutts" is the same thing as calling someone "nigga" or "Jew." Same harsh meaning and undertone to it. Until I see Kanye either justifying this rumor with a statement I'm calling this a RUMOR!

"You knew it was coming. Kanye West seems to have put his foot in his mouth again. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that in an upcoming interview with Essence magazine, the hip hop star came down with a bad case of diarrhea of the mouth.According to a person close to Essence story, Kanye reportedly told the magazine, "If it wasn't for race mixing, there'd be no video girls." Then, as if his first comment wasn't offensive enough, Kanye reportedly referred to biracial women as dogs. The rapper told, "Me and most of my friends like mutts a lot ... Yeah, in the hood they call 'em mutts."
