Kanye Skips the Shave to Crank Out Beats and Eats

Thu, 08/14/2008 - 4:03am by Molly

Kanye West sported his favorite LV backpack and some scruffy facial hair on his way into the recording studio in LA yesterday morning. While we're used to seeing Mr. West looking more clean cut, I'm not totally hating the more rugged look, you? It not, at least puppet Kanye still has his usual goatee in the fun "Champion" video most of you enjoyed. Until we get to hear whatever Kanye's working on back in the studio, at least he keeps us entertained with his frequently updated blog. Plus, his newest venture is apparently opening up a chain of FatBurger restaurants in Chicago, yum.

He looks a little rough and I'm not just talking about the lack of shaving!

the beard really does make him look a little more 'rounded' but oh well. i wonder what he's up to these days. we just hear about him being bitter on things, and i'm not sure what the latest and greatest is with him. after his SMASH HIT last year, i hope that he's able to come out with something new that will keep us interested.

IMHO he's an arrogant narcissist.
And he does look like Mr. T - not a good look

Yea for Fatburgers, one of the best things about Los Angeles. But I wouldn't have guessed that his choice would be red meat, fries and shakes.

Hope he's okay, for some reason since his mom died I worry about him.

I'm probably gonna get flamed for saying this, but with all that facial hair and the squint - I would never have guessed this was Kanye West. In fact, I would have guessed he was a homeless guy walking the streets with all his bags and backpacks on him and the rough face. Except his clothes are too clean for that...I'm sorry. I just had to say what I was thinking.

I love Kanye, but in that first picture he looks like the homeless guy who's always hanging out at my neighborhood McDonald's. Shave, dude!
