Published: 2013 June 19 11:27:09 (3403 Views)
Kanye West is being slammed as "ignorant" and "distasteful" over a lyric on his new album which uses Parkinson's disease as a punch line TMZ reported.
The song in question is called "On Sight" which includes the lyric, "A monster about to come alive again / Soon as I pull up and park the Benz / We get this bitch shaking like Parkinson's."
The American Parkinson Disease Association is upset about the lyric saying, "We find these lyrics distasteful and the product of obvious ignorance."
The APDA has been around for over 50 years and it's the largest organization in the country dedicated to helping those with Parkinson's and furthering efforts to find a cure.
So far, no response from Kanye's camp.
