The article addresses a tweet made by RHYMEFEST also known as Chee Smith, a co-writer of Kanye who had helped him write songs such as "New Slaves" and "Jesus Walks". Recently the two split and when others questioned to RHYMEFEST why he wasn't on Kanye's alblum heres what he stated.

@lord_cornwall to @RHYMEFEST:
@RHYMEFEST plz start back writing Kanye lyrics
Rhymefest's response: nah his mind and spirit aren't right

@JakeChatty to @RHYMEFEST
I wish @RHYMEFEST was co-writer of #KanyeWest 's Twitter & media statements. Worked with the music, should work with the other stuff, right?
Rhymefest's response: my brother needs help, in the form of counseling. Spiritual & mental. He should step away from the public & yesmen & heal

@OGoGoooh to @RHYMEFEST
@RHYMEFEST @lord_cornwall You wrote Jesus Walk, you could help him man, you're a wise man
Rhymefest's response: I love my brother. I pray for his health not our entertainment.

Overall this article about Kanye's ex co-writer gives a outlook on Kanye that is different from what we usually see because this is a person who actually knows Kanye on a personal level. This article addresses that not only is Kanyes ego real outside of the media but also that his ego is starting to effect and draw away others such as one of his closest friends.

I choose this source because it gives insight that is different from what the world thinks of Kanye's ego. This article was about what one of his closest friends thought about him. This article connects to the post about Kanye and Twitter and the post about the Grammys because this was an event that happened on twitter. The information given about his ego in this article will help the viewers of the blog determine whether Kanye and his ego has gone too far or not.
