Kenya vs. Kanye

Whereas everyone's been talking about Kanye's new album, we didn't mention the guy once so far - and for a reason: We do believe it's better to help Kenya (and not just Kenya) Not Kanye. Why? Well...

KENYA > KANYE
Kanye West is 53 million in debt and asking for help. He’s gone as far as saying he deserves it more than children in Africa. As a fan, that’s where I draw the line. If you really want a GOOD Friday, help Kenya not Kanye.

THE LIFE OF MANY > THE LIFE OF PABLO
Kenya has tripled its population since 1980 to 47 million and 42% of the country is below the poverty line. Kanye may be my boy, but we can be helping so many little boys and girls instead. Help set the record straight for less than the price of his new record. 

BOOKS > BOOSTS
A pair of Yeezy Boosts at retail costs over 0. With that money (9.11) you can donate books to educate children in Kenya. A UNICEF School-In-A-Box Kit meets the needs of 1 teacher and 40 students for 3 months.

HIV > MP3
Over 5% of the population in Kenya lives with HIV or AIDS. It spreads because people don’t know they have it. In fact, many babies are born with it. For the price of an album (), you can donate rapid HIV test kits to 10 expectant mothers. 

FAMINE > FASHION
Kanye recently released the new collection for his Yeezus clothing line. Prices are not out yet, but previous sweatshirts have listed at 0. For 0 you can feed an entire school of 200 malnourished Kenyan orphans and their 10 teachers for a month. Less than per month per person. 

BEASTS > BEATS
Kanye West started his career as a producer charging upwards of ,000 for a beat. Meanwhile in West Kenya, people are paying an average of ,000 to hunt lions. Over 650 are killed a year in Africa. Help preserve the animals that really Watch The Throne. 

H2O > H2 THE IZZO
Kanye’s new album is available exclusively on streaming service Tidal, owned by Mr. H to the Izzo himself, Jay-Z. But for the you’ll spend on a one month subscription, you can provide clean drinking water to a Kenyan for an entire year.

SHINGLES > SINGLES
Roofing using shingles is a fast gaining trend in the Kenyan building industry because of its low cost. For the price of a Kanye single, you can be a Real Friend and put a roof over someone’s head. 

CONDOMS > CONCERTS
Tickets to the Kanye concert easily sell for over 0. That money can provide condoms for a whole village in Kenya, preventing the spread of AIDS from unprotected sex. 

EASY > YEEZY
If you’re a Yeezy fan, his latest antics have resulted in nothing but 808’s and Heartbreaks. Being a Kanye fan is really hard. But donating to Kenya is really easy. I hope in the future I won’t have to pick Good deeds over GOOD music, but until then we can help people that don’t have 21 Grammys.


This way please. (rnk)
