This is truly Kanye's week of greatness. He's had a rant, celebrity meltdown, and now the music evangelist of Tumblr has admitted that Mr. West aka Yeezy's blog style inspired Tumblr.
As seen on allhiphop.com
tumblr's music evangelist Auerbach claims Kanye was not an inspiration for Tumblr's creation, however does attest that the Chicago rapper had an indirect influence on the revolutionary microblogging site:
"How many rap lyrics do you take literally? Lil Wayne says he's a Martian. Tumblr is influenced by our users and by the creators on our platform. It would probably be more accurate to say that Kanye's fans have influenced Tumblr. One of my favorite tumblogs is All Yeezy Everything."
Prior to Tumblr's inception in February 2007, West's personal website kanyewest.com featured a very similar layout including a continuous scroll and a streamlined design for posting picture sets.
WOW...YEEZY MADE TUMBLR!!!!
