L.A. to Kanye -- We Forgive You!!!

Posted Sep 27th 2009 10:53AM by TMZ Staff

He may be a social pariah everywhere else -- but when Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Common's benefit concert last night in Hollywood, he got a hero's welcome.



The crowd at the show -- which featured Common, Nas, Ludacris, De La Soul, The Roots, Mos Def, Talib Kweli and more -- just exploded when Kanye rushed out on stage. He stayed for a few songs -- including "Good Life" and "Run This Town" -- and had the crowd going nuts the whole time.

Kanye was able to perform without interruption.

8. What happened to taking time off to get himself together? I knew he was lying. I'm sure we will read about him doing something else ignorant very soon.

10. Sure, reward someone for acting like a total jerk! I'm not surprised. He is the biggest racist in entertainment. Wonder what would happen if a white guy had done the same thing to a black artist, while accepting her award? His career would be over! Double-standard! Come on people.
Hey Kanye, go find a rock and crawl under it!
