Clog Your Arteries - Kanye Style!

Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True > Kanye West

What an un-Kanye-like move!

According to MTV, couture loving Kanye West is adding a line of Fatburger restaurants to his empire.

The rapper is said to be opening 10 branches in Chicago, his hometown.

There must be a lot of money to be made in burgers!

Is this also an attempt at 'keeping it real'?

Why Fatburger, though???? In'N'Out is far superior!

    in n out's the shit.



  16. 16

  17. 17

    sonic is better



  18. 18

    [[[[[[[[[[ put some in florida..shit…I'll b glad 2/clog my arteriez]]]]



  19. 19

    maybe bc in n out is a christian owned chain, if u look on the bottom of their drinks and bags there's all these passage numbers.



  20. 20

    He didn't open an In-N-Out even though it is pretty Heavenly BECAUSE the Owner's of IN-N-OUT want to keep it a family/ friends type of business located only on the west coast.

    I already tried it Perez. when I moved back to NY from So. Cal I wanted to bring the best back with me. I was shut down. I sent them an email about business opportunities. they weren't having it.

    fatburger is way superior!



  22. 22

    I live in California but really what is with you guys and In N Out? It's so bland and blah it reminds me of the crap they served on a bun in high school. I don't get it. Burger King makes a better burger and that's pretty bad.

    The REAL reason he is hopping on the resturant train is because EVERYONE HATES HIM. He is a racist narsacist (sp). I went to Virgin Fest this past weekend where he was perfoming and NO_ONE was at his stage. The whole crowd was at the opposite end of the field watching a different band. Maybe now he realizes he SUCKS COCK so he decieded to do something he might actually be good at.

    Kayne says ' George Bush hate Fatburger '



  25. 25

    MMMMM,girl, Fatburger is the FBomb.



  26. 26

    Please please please please get rid of the Member's-Only jacket!!!!!!!



  27. 27

    I think he looks ridiculous…..and not just because I hate him…

    it's probably because biggie raps about fatburger in going back to cali

    Isn't In-n-Out some sort of non-profit Christian thing?

    And WTF? Why won't my name appear? I'm not anonymous! P your new log-in system thing sucks!



  30. 30

    Yup, making money off of the poor and porking them up at the same time. Respect!



  31. 31

    Hello! Fatburger is for black people and "in & out" is for white people, I mean duh, Kanye's black!! He'd better come out with a fat burger before in & out!!
    Smart Move Kanye!!!



  32. 32

    Man, those crappy, overrated In-n-Out burgers are fetishized by Californians. Fatburger's are much better.



  33. 33

    Re: Torie

    Whoa!! Your buggin. Maybe you don't like Kanye, but records sales and his myspace friend numbers (which are in the millions) say that a decent chunk of the world does. and exploring other business opportunities outside of his career is just smart. So loosing fans or not its the right move!!



  34. 34

    FATBURGER is WAY better than IN n OUT Perez. Seriously. Plus he is probably friends with Magic Johnson who owns the corporation! I would buy 100 Fatburger restuarants if I could, they make the best fresh burgers and shakes and fat fries in the world!



  35. 35

    At least he will have something to fall back on when his "career" is over. Long live the Fatburger. Can I have fries with that Kayne?

    Kanye,
    Get back to what Momma taught you.
    Love,
    Larren:0)



  37. 37

    because In-N-Out keeps all of its products fresh and DELICIOUS it can only ship a certain distance in mileage from its main produce factory–hence only 2 (maybe three) states on the west coast have In-N-Out.

    Trivia for the day. :)



  38. 38

    Re: dezboy – The trick to delicious in-n-out is getting grilled cheese animal style. no patty, but the rest is the same. trust me, just try it. the beef ruins it for me too.



  39. 39

    In N Out is TERRIBLE. Its just two pieces of bread slapped together with no meat. Now Fatburger is a real hamburger and the best part is the relish on top. Their fries are much better than In N Outs too which has the worst fries known to man. If you think In N Out is a good hamburger then you are just a flaming douchebag.



  40. 40

    I love Kanye, he should open some chains in Texas, he would make a killing! We love our meat lol



  41. 41

    Re: In_Hollywood

    Actually Sonic has the most digusting fries, cold and hard. So gross!



  42. 42

    love kanye! .



  43. 43

    IT'S ALL ABOUT WHATABURGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  44. 44

    Re: abercorey – are you a bottom?



  45. 45

    There are NO In 'N' Outs in the Chicago land area! Hense FATBURGER!



  46. 46

    Re: Andy27 – Andy dear, maybe we can make it a date and go together. You can salivate over Kanye and I can salivate over eating real food. I hate staying in shape. Game?

  48. 48

    Because Biggie never rapped about no In&Out burger. And everyone wants to be like Biggie. Except for the dead part.

    "If I wanna squirt her/ take her to Fatburger…" from "Goin' back to Cali" by Notorious BIG.

    Re: Andy27
    LOL I live in Canada I dont think we have them here!



  50. 50

    The RZA from Wu-Tang Clan owns a chain of Fatburger joints too. There's money to be made there. I don't know what's up with rappers and FatBurger A FatBurger by my house charges over $10 for a regular combo but the burgers and FAT fries are F'n delicious so it's worth it once in awhile. IN-N-OUT sucks. Their fries taste like cardboard, no flavor, I think it's all hype.



  51. 51

    In and out is way overrated.



  52. 52

    Re: PunkyBrewstein

    lmao no I am not….why do you ask??? lol

    and I for one loved In and Out burger…I had it while i was in San Diego a couple weeks ago…I have tried Fatburger yet….but I will….we have one here in ATL



  53. 53

    Is Kanye West a gay rapper?



  54. 54

    omg. In-N-Out is the only burgers I will eat. They are so yummy. I'll take mine Animal Style. And my fries too.

  55. jemms says – reply to this


    55

    why doesnt he open something healthy…I am in Chicago and the last thing we need is a damn fatburger.



  56. 56

    Well Piggy why so mad about it??? They are not opening one close to where you live??? Is that why you are so upset???



  57. 57

    That pic does not look like him–check out his upper lip. Has it always been that big or was he just busy sucking some big dick?



  58. 58

    In N Out is not a franchise, family owned. Fatburger is yummy, i love their fat fries :) ~



  59. 59

    …Because we here in IL don't give a fuck about In'N'Out burger…??!?!??!



  60. 60

    P.S…Steak n Shake!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  61. 61
