Kanye West Encouraged Kim Kardashian's Pop Career


You have Kanye West to thank for Kim Kardashian's pop star aspirations.
Kanye West talked Kim Kardashian into recording her debut pop song.

The reality TV star was initially reluctant to showcase her singing voice, but took on the project after encouragement by the 'Power' hitmaker, recording the track, 'Turn It Up' with producer The-Dream.

She explained: "OK, I'm not a singer, this isn't what I do. I have too much other stuff going on. And Kanye was actually one of the people who really talked me into doing it and telling me, like, 'Hey, look, what do you guys do for fun? You guys go shopping, you go to the movies.

"Kind of step into our world for a second and have fun."

Kim, 30, added her song is not the start of a full-time pop career, and that The-Dream became involved after he and Kim were introduced by R 'n' B singer Ciara.

She added to MTV: "I'm just doing it for fun, and The-Dream wrote and produced the song, and Ciara talked me into doing it and said I should meet with him."

'Turn It Up' will also raise money for a good cause, with a portion of profits from the single going to a charity close to both Kim and the producer.

Kim added: "Dream's mother passed away of cancer and so did my dad, so half of the proceeds are going to a cancer organisation. It's just one song, and it's just for fun."

'Turn It Up' has no confirmed release date at present.

I thought Parasite Hilton was her "inspiration". I guess she was the kick, and Kanyetta was the push.

ALERT***ALERT

***EVERYONE - DO NOT BUY THIS DUM ASS SONG***

KIM IS LYING TO YOU!!!

SHE SAYS IT WAS KANYE WHO PUSHED THIS IDEA.
WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DUM AND BUY IT BECAUSE KANYE SAYS SO. HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE THIS MUSICAL GENIOUS BUT HE IS PUSHING THIS MESS.

KIM SAYS THAT IT WILL BE 1 SONG BUT I THOUGHT SHE WAS MAKING AN ALBUM. ALL LIES!

KIM SAYS THE SONG WILL RAISE FUNDS FOR CHARITY. WELL, WELL, WELL, THIS IS A FIRST ANYONE HAS HEARD OF THIS. THE DREAM IS SO SAD AND RIDICULOUS BECAUSE HE IS THROWING HIS MOTHER'S ILLNESS INTO THIS GARBAGE. JUST FOR SALES! DREAM-IF CIARA DIDN'T SELL ANY RECORDS, WHAT MAKE YOU THINK THAT KIM K WILL?

YOU SEE THIS CHARITY THING - IS HERE TO HELP ADD SALES TO HER RECORD. SHE IS TRYING TO MAKE EVERYONE ON HERE SEEM VERY STUPID, DUM AND IGNORANT. APPARENTLY, WE HAVE NO SENSE AT ALL!

IF YOU BUY THIS SONG (FOR A LAST MINUTE-MADE UP CHARITY), KIM WILL SELL RECORDS AND MAKE THIS DUM AS SONG HUGE; NEXT SHE IS ON SOME RECORD CHARTS; THEN SHE'S WINNING GRAMMY'S FOR THIS DUM AS SONG. IN THE END, WE WILL REALIZE THAT WE NEVER REALLY LIKED THE DUM AS SONG.

WORD IS THAT WHEN SHE PLAYED IT AT HER NEW YEAR'S EVE GIG, SHE GOT HORRIBLE REVIEWS. HOWEVER, SHE WANTS TO REALLY TRY IT SO THAT SHE CAN ATTEMPT TO BE THE NEXT BEYONCE.
NO, NOT, NEVER, NAH...

Kim, if this is something that you really didn't want to do, then why should we spend money supporting it? It's for fun.

Just a thought...

If Kanye West encouraged this bimbo broad, then she is easily led.

Does anyone else notice that she is easily led/encouraged by her mom and Kourt and Khloe are not.

She says, "It's just one song, and it's just for fun." Yeah right Kim. This one song will lead to others. Stop it now!

This is the same guy who stood up and dissed Taylor Swift? I hate country music with a passion but I know Taylor Swift has more talent in her pinky nail than Kim has in her whole body.
