Brash rapper West on Rolling Stone cover as Jesus - Yahoo! News

Brash rapper West on Rolling Stone cover as Jesus - Yahoo! News: "NEW YORK (Reuters) - Rapper Kanye West, unafraid to speak out over personal slights and more serious charges of political persecution, wears a crown of thorns as he poses as Jesus Christ on the cover of the next issue of Rolling Stone.

The feisty West also posed as Muhammad Ali for the magazine story, in which he complains that his hit 'Gold Digger' should have been nominated for a Grammy as best rap song.

'That's a gimme Grammy,' said West, who nonetheless garnered eight Grammy nominations, including one for best album for 'Late Registration.'

West caused a stir during an NBC TV benefit concert for Hurricane Katrina victims last September when in an impromptu remark he accused
President George W. Bush of racism."
