Kanye gonna Kanye

[VolnTitan]

I think Beyoncé is a really good singer. Zero problem. But anyone who thinks the beck should give up the Grammy because Beyoncé is more of a "artist" is an idiot. When he did it to Taylor swift, he may have had a point, but beck? Please.

 

[n_huffhines]

How do you deam that she isn't an artist? Simply because you don't care for her music?

I argue that there are many pop musicians who are artists. I would wager that she deserves to be considered as such.

She doesn't play an instrument and it took a staff of like 16 to help her write this album. She's artistic but you can't say she's an artist in the same breath as Beck. He wrote it all. Plays like a dozen instruments.

It was a douche move then. Still a douche move with Beck.

Seems like a pattern of douche going on here.

Fair enough.

There's also Bonnaroo in 2008. He's a very accomplished douche.

I was there, I wasn't at the main stage to see him, but F Kanye was painted everywhere.

 

[Cyclopskiller]

Kanye is about as racist as they get.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Beck handled himself like a pro, class all around.











He is a scientologist though.

Poor guy was born into it.

Kanye is a professional troll.

A gifted producer but an honest to god, egomaniacal troll.

You left out racist

I think the bigger question is how does Kim feel about his obvious obsession with Beyonce.

 

[salutethehill]

Don't care about Hollywood. Just jumped in here to say Beyonce is fine.

Carry on.

She knows she's second fiddle but so desperately clings to her fame she will put up with whatever to stay in the spotlight

e-pro*

 

[heartvols]

kanye is a narcissistic, fish stick eating moron. Beck has been around for 20 years and is a true artist unlike Beyonce or Kanye.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Kanye might want to focus on his own artistry, given the mind-numbing waste of four minutes he spent "performing" at the Grammys.

 

[kiddiedoc]

And, while not exactly my cup-of-tea, Beck has immeasurably greater musical talent and creativity than just about everybody else that was in that room. He is one of the few in the Ben Folds eschelon of just plain music masterminds.

She became famous for leaking her sex tape with a D-level celebrity. As long as she's making money and famous, I don't think she'd care if Kanye was banging donkeys in their garage.

Her sex tape was a letdown. I enjoyed Paris Hilton's much more....

 

[MG1968]

SIAP, Shirley Manson of Garbage has a nice takedown of Kanye on her FB page.

Dear Kanye West

It is YOU who is so busy disrespecting artistry.
You disrespect your own remarkable talents and more importantly you disrespect the talent, hard work and tenacity of all artists when you go so rudely and savagely after such an accomplished and humble artist like BECK.
You make yourself look small and petty and spoilt.
In attempting to reduce the importance of one great talent over another, you make a mockery of all musicians and music from every genre, including your own.
Grow up and stop throwing your toys around.
You are making yourself look like a complete twat.

Ps.I am pretty certain Beyonce doesn't need you fighting any battles on her account. Seems like she's got everything covered perfectly well on her own.

[Rasputin_Vol]

You guys are 100% correct. Beyonce, like Britney Spears etc, is an entertainer. Huge difference in a musical artist and an entertainer/performer.

Hmmm... lets see what another artist has to say about Beyonce.

A gifted producer but an honest to god, egomaniacal troll.

Kanye embodies everything that is great about America... he's an individual that pulled himself from his bootstraps and proved himself against geographical bias, DJ/MC bias, a near fatal car crash, haters, 2 US presidents and Nike. Nobody has had to overcome more obstacles and has gotten as far as Kanye West. After his "George Bush hates black people" rant, he should have fallen off the map and been given the Sinead O'Connor treatment. Instead, he popped right back with Graduation, Cruel Summer, 808s and Heartbreak and probably his greatest work to date, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Then he came back and married one of the hottest chicks in the game (KK). ("Lucky I didn't have Jay drop him from the team...")

Now I could let these dream killers kill my self-esteem
Or use my arrogance as the steam to power my dreams
