One of the best things about being a cartoon is that you can smoke all the cigarettes you want and never have to worry about your face looking like a ratty old catcher's mitt or your teeth turning buttered-popcorn yellow or eventually having to talk with a fake voicebox (true, you'd save time not having to futz with AutoTune; downside -- no trachea). Another great thing, you can ogle jiggly, generously endowed cartoon model chicks with zero consequence, and you can adorn all of the walls of your too-good-for-rap home with cartoon Warhols for days! But if you're cartoon Kanye West, you're probably too busy smoking, and being mad, and not Twittering to care.
Check out Kanye's latest video, "Heartless," based on the 1981 Ralph Bakshi film, American Pop. It was directed by Hype Williams and animated by 65 individual illustrations in Hong Kong using the rotoscopic technique. Do work!
