This is why you're about as qualified to critique his expression as you are to sit on a panel with Quantam Physicists. Kanye West grew up every bit as Middle Class as Larry Johnson did. This idea that such fashionable expression is only authentic when expressed by the lower class is silly.
Culture is defined by the attitudes, tastes, and behaviors favored by a particular group.
What more needs to be said?
Get over yourselves.

The questions I asked were in earnest, so I don't know why you're saying, "Get over yourselves."
Larry's expression, to me, rings hollow. When I look at him or hear him talk about how difficult he has it and has had it, I see a person who desperately wants to be something he's not.
He's the consummate wannabe from high school.
