While many may frown upon the obnoxiousness that is Kanye West, it is difficult to ignore his artistry and what he's up to.

Here's why:

1. He's a loyal friend:

He didn't just write a song about his longtime friend Jay Z called "Big Brother," but their collaborations have taken over the music industry with "Watch the Throne." West also supported Jay Z right away with his music streaming app, Tidal, and exclusively released "The Life of Pablo" only on Tidal, booming Tidal's subscribers.

2. He is unapologetic but is well aware of his mistakes:

Kanye West himself tweeted "Everyone makes mistakes. I just make them publicly."

3. Instead of falling into the pressures of media for him to apologize to Taylor Swift, he fiercely wrote a song about his apology and celebrating people who are just like him in "Runaway."

4. He didn't just stop at music; he successfully launched his own fashion line and changed the sneaker game with his Yeezy designs:

5. And can we talk about the time he launched Yeezy Season 3 along with "The Life Of Pablo" at Madison Square Garden and had it sold out?!

6. He is an asshole to the world but is a sweetheart to his family:

7. He wants the best for his children:

8. He advocates for African-Americans and doesn't care where he does it:

9. He knows he has haters but defies them:

10. His confidence level is goals:

11. He realized his mistakes with being rude to paparazzi and now respects them for doing whatever it takes to provide for their families.


12. He named his company for creatives after his late mother, Donda West:

13. His advice is just real:

14. Overall, he simply cares.

15. With 21 Grammys, a successful fashion line, and being one of TIME's influential people, it's safe to say that Kanye West contributes his vision to the world impeccably and backs up his claims about "being the greatest artist of all time."

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.
