Boy George Writing Songs for Kanye West
Said George: "I wrote a song for Kylie but her representative said it was too Kylie. I don't know what he meant by that. I'm actually doing something for Kanye West soon. My friend Amanda Ghost is a big songwriter at the moment. She met with Kanye a couple of weeks ago and he loved 'Karma Chameleon' and he's looking for real songs. Whether or not he does it is another story! He might say it's too Kanye West!"

Wow, cool pictures and I think that this might be a great collaboration, Boy George is still talented when it comes to music, although his DJ mix a couple of years ago was not his best effort.

I agree! Amazing illustrations! I love what they did with Kanye's hair, genius

This is so cool! I am glad that somebody can see past George's last few years of negativity (living and blabbing) to recognize that he has always been a good songwriter ... Most of his post-Culture Club material was ignored by the masses, but his best songwriting came into flower around 1991 and is yet to let up. I hope Kanye uses the song(s), George's reputation could use the boost (and the ca$h).
