West raps during "On Sight": "Soon as I pull up and park the Benz / We get this b---- shaking like Parkinson's."

Leslie A. Chambers, president & CEO of theAmerican Parkinson Disease Association, said to CBSNews.com that the organization was alerted to the lyric after a reporter from TMZ asked what it thought of the lyric. Vice president Kathryn Whitford told the website that she found it to be "distasteful and the product of obvious ignorance."
