Kanye Westfans now have an actualBiblein which to worship him. The book is being sold onEtsy. It replaces every mention in the book ofGenesisofGodwith eitherYeezusorKanye West.
Each generation champions a superstar, so consistently relevant that they come to accompany that generation through it’s evolution, being a part of and ultimately shaping its identity. Such past icons have been the likes of Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, John Lennon, or Michael Jackson. For this generation, Generation Y, Kanye West is not only its greatest spectacle, but in some senses, a spiritual figure.
We are here to spread a doctrine. Well, a pseudo-doctrine. We ask you to use your pulpit for Good.
A few months ago, my brothers and I embarked on a creative journey that began with a “What If?”:
What if the Bible, the most singularly significant publication in the ancient canon of Western tradition, were updated to reflect our modern society? What would it look like? What we came up with was an interventionist art, coffee-table novelty, that will appeal to both Kanye fans everywhere and those made curious by this enormous cultural phenomenon.
At it’s simplest, it is the book of Genesis, modified to feature “Kanye” or “Yeezus” in the place of God or Y---A. “In the beginning Kanye created the heaven and the earth… And Kanye said, Let there be light: and there was light.”
In a sense, Kanye’s awesome and orchestrated spectacle is truly a religious experience. In a foreword, we explore our consumerist, quick-fix, and information-culture, and celebrate Kanye and the outsized significance he plays in our lives. All of this, bound in a black, hard-cover gold-leaf imprinted book.

Logic opened up to VladTV about his difficult childhood, and growing up with both parents addicted to drugs.
The Maryland-born emcee said that his dad was hooked on crack and even smoked it around him as a kid, which he admitted was one of the most shocking things his father did.
The "Mind of Logic" rapper also spoke about his tumultuous relationship with his mother, whom he said neglected him as a child by choosing cigarettes and alcohol over buying food for him. Logic also admitted that he doesn't have a relationship with his mother at this moment, mainly because he believes that she's not a positive person to have in his life.
San Francisco Police Chief Greg Suhr speaks to members of the media

SAN FRANCISCO (KTVU) - San Francisco Police Chief Greg Suhr on Friday announced the conclusion of an Internal Affairs investigation into racist and homophobic text messages sent by officers.
Suhr said at least one police sergeant and a captain were involved. "It just makes me sick to even talk about it," said Suhr. "Certainly to have a member as high ranking as a captain was particularly disheartening."
The texts surfaced a couple of weeks ago after former officer Ian Furminger was sentenced on federal corruption charges.

Fourteen officers in all were the subject of an internal investigation. Suhr says eight - including the captain - sent messages sickening enough to warrant immediate suspension and eventual termination.
Michael Robison - a gay police officer and 23 year veteran - resigned over the texts he shared with Furminger.
On Friday, Officer Michael Celis, a 16 year veteran of the force, announced he'd step down as well - a move that may help the officers keep their pensions.
"Those [texts] don't represent his views, they don't represent how he approached his work and his life," said San Francisco attorney Tony Brass, who represents Celis and Robison. "But he understands that the texts are incompatible with continuing his work as a San Francisco police officer."
In a statement, San Francisco Police Officers Association President Martin Halloran said, "These officers need to be afforded their due process... If these allegations are proven to be true... there is no place for this type of behavior within the San Francisco Police Officers Association or the SFPD."
The officers will go before the Police Commission, which will have the final say on whether to terminate them or mete out another form of discipline.
Critics on Friday called for reform in the department. "We have to vet officers," said San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi, "so we don't have officers who hold racist views that are going to endanger not only themselves but the public, and also provide training on unconscious bias."
Suhr said the department recently restored a racial profiling class that had lost funding and plans to examine officers' backgrounds for warning signs.
"You have to assume that there could be more," said Suhr. "So we're going to look at their personal history questionnaires to see if there's some commonality that we hired somebody that we should've known that we shouldn't have hired."

(Reuters) - An accused New York City gang member was sentenced to life in prison on Thursday for a slew of violent crimes, including three murders, after being convicted in a trial in which prosecutors used his graphic rap lyrics against him.
Ronald "Ra Diggs" Herron, 33, was sentenced to 12 terms of life in prison plus 105 years by U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis in Brooklyn, New York.
The sentencing came after a jury in June 2014 found Herron guilty of all 23 charges against him, from racketeering to drug trafficking to gang-related killings between 2001 and 2009.
Prosecutors at the trial used Herron's "gangsta rap" videos - in which he boasts about belonging to the infamous Bloods street gang, firing weapons and dealing drugs - to argue the lyrics documented his crimes.
Herron's lawyers argued that the lyrics were not autobiographical, but were commentary on crime, violence and drug wars in the inner city.
Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch in a statement Thursday said the life sentence would put an end to the "brutal, unrelenting violence" that Herron unleashed.
"Herron styled himself a rap artist, but the evidence proved that he was a murderous thug who sought power through violence, fear and intimidation," she said.
A lawyer for Herron did not respond to a request for comment.
