HOLLYWOOD - Kanye West and Borat director Larry Charles have teamed up to develop a new series for HBO.
The as-yet-untitled project will focus on a day in the Grammy Award-winning rapper's life.

Charles is a longtime producer and director of TV series Curb Your Enthusiasm and was also executive producer of Entourage for its first two seasons.

His most recent film, Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, recently earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Musical or Comedy Motion Picture.

Music producer-turned rapper West has released two albums, The College Dropout in 2004 and Late Registration in 2005, and will serve as executive producer on the project.

In March, he signed on to produce a feature film inspired by his music. He will also appear in the film, which will show a portrait of the U.S. through the eyes of West and several other filmmakers.

Now he is given another platform to show how egotistical he is. Though I have to admit, the boy sure can spit the rhymes. :)

I'm not really feeling Kanye anymore. I like his music but his latest comments about biracial women was pure ignorant. Even though I'm not biracial, I was taken back by what he said. I just wish he would keep his mouth close and just do music.

What did he say? I can only imagine.

I was PISSED when he made that ignorant remark. All I can say was Please, none of us want you.....

Kayne is always opening his chipmunk cheek mouth to say something ignorant, rather it be a certain president doesn't like black folks(What's Condi? A white woman with a very good tan?) Or my band Evanescene winning an award over him(Please, your lyrics are lame, Amy can BLOW!).

Wow, what a great project.

I know I'll be watching because if there's one person in showbiz who's able to laugh at himself, it's got to be an egotistical shmuck like Kanye West.

“If it wasn’t for race mixing, there’d be no video girls. Me and most of my friends like mutts a lot. Yeah, in the hood they call ‘em mutts.”

The quote is from the December 2006 issue of Essence magazine.

That was the most dumb quotes i've heard in a long time. Mutts??!! Excuse me, i'm not a damn dog for this backwards negro to be calling biracial girls mutts says something about his intelligence or lack of. So is that all black men sees us biracial females, as hot video girls?! What is wrong with them? But then again this doesn't really shock me considering most of my life since 13, that the **** I had to endure, sad isn't it? Go on blackvoices.com, i've never seen one group of men drool and degrade biracial females. They put us(not ALL black men) high on their list but dog black women on this site.

BTW: Kayne's dumbass isn't even FROM the hood. He is as middle class as Theo Huxtable.

I'm sorry you had to endure ignorant people. I visit blackvoices.com also, and the majority of the people on the message boards really do seem to be color-struck. The majority of the posters seems to be dark-skinned -vs-light skinned, which I think is horrible.

What's he going to do when his show doesn't get an Emmy nomination for best comedy, storm the stage and interrupt another acceptance speech?

I would like to see him try to take an Emmy award out of James Gandolfini's hand.

Oh my god, yes. That whole dark skinned light skinned crap is rather annoying. That's why I don't post on those boards, as soon as they found out i'm biracial i'm a sellout to them. Like I asked to be this way. It's sad and what's really sad is that there are white lurkers on those boards and some are just enjoying the way they are tearing themselves down.

I lost a lot of respect for Kanye after that comment. I think the term "mutt" is very offensive in the way he used it...and he didnt even seem like he was joking. I dont know if I qualify as a "mutt" in his eyes since I'm not exactly 50% black, but I still find it ignorant, considering no one is a pure race. anyway I thought it could be offensive to dark skinned black women too, as if only lighter skinned blacks/biracial women are beautiful... which is not true because I've seen many ugly light skinned black women and gorgeous dark skinned black women lol.
