Rapper bad boy Kanye West is spreadings his wings...Kanye has signed on to do some acting, in a flick about a GAY jazz band in 1939. He plays a gay band member, and there is EXPLICIT gay sex in this movie.
It is being funded by ALL of his buddies, Will smith, Jay Z and even Momma O' has put some money into this movie. its a 20 million dollar film.
The script won 9 awards, so i think it's good. The Oscars Academy has this thing called the nicholl, a competition for screenplays, and the script for the movie won there twice, so I guess that means it will be one of those oscar films. It isn't the typical hood movie rappers do.
