    Oh lord. On Thursday, January 1, Kanye West released his latest song -- a collaboration with the legendary Paul McCartney. "Only One" features Kanye singing a soulful ballad while the Beatles great plays a fantastic melody on the keyboard. It's a pretty great song, as to be expected from the likes of Paul and Kanye. But then the Internet did a collective facepalm when some of West's fans revealed they don't know who Paul McCartney is.
    What is the world coming to? I just can't even. At least most of them liked the guy, and really hope that Kanye's spotlight of him will shoot him to stardom. LOL -- there are human beings who think Kanye West "discovered" Paul McCartney. I can't even type that without giggling.


    The struggle is real, y'all.

    When John Lennon said Ringo wasn't even the best drummer on the Beatles, he was actually talking about Kanye.

    Even backed by a Beatle, that song bored me to tears.

    The question is, does Paul McCartney know who I am.

    Paul McCartney is just trying to be the next Tony Bennett. I couldn't hear the song here because they seem to have busted Sly's link.

    He just came back from that sore hamstring, but has yet to do anything spectacular for the Warriors since.
