Kanye West Feuds With MTV
It’s Tuesday, meaning Kanye West must have run his mouth again. This time, though, Ye’s pissed off on the Pantyless One’s behalf, too. Speaking on New York radio station Z100, West — whose album Graduation drops today — criticized MTV’s treatment of artists, critiquing Britney’s much maligned comeback performance from Sunday evening: “When Britney was opening [the VMA telecast], near the end, I felt so bad for her. I said, ‘Man, it’s a dirty game. This game will chew you up and spit you out.’” No word on whether the network was plying the pop tart with margaritas and enforcing a no underwear policy. Kanye then went on to discuss how MTV betrayed him, encouraging him to perform in a suite when he should have been on the main stage of the 2007 VMAs. “It was my dream when I made ‘Stronger’ to open up the VMAs with a real power performance,” West said, bemoaning his performance, which is demonstrative of a larger issue: don’t write songs with dreams of award shows dancing in your head. It will only end in tragedy.

Kanye is a spoiled brat. I dont believe his apology to to Taylor was truley heart felt, but more like an apology to save his career. We have recently watched his outragous stunts for attention time after time again. How many lives does this cat have? When I was a kid I was taught not to interupt someone while they were talking, which is just plain common courtesy. Apparently deep down Kayne believes that he above courtesy and we should all hang on his words only.

Kanye is a spoiled brat. I dont believe his apology to to Taylor was truley heart felt, but more like an apology to save his career. We have recently watched his outragous stunts for attention time after time again. How many lives does this cat have? When I was a kid I was taught not to interupt someone while they were talking, which is just plain common courtesy. Apparently deep down Kayne believes that he is above courtesy and we should all hang on his words only. I’m also disapointed in the so called “Race Pimps” such as Quanell X (or however you spell it, not important in my opinion)I ask them what would they have done if the roles were reversed and lets say Toby Keith took the mic from Beyonce’s hand and said that the Taylor Swift video is much better than Beyonce’s. I believe racism would have been screamed from the top of their lungs, and the next protest would have already begun planning before the VMA’s were over. As for Taylor Swift, thank you for taking the high road and demonstrating what a true professional should act like, you have earned the &+`_((*)%_#$!&( le of “Role Model”. Beyonce, you also should recieve the “Role Model” &+`_((*)%_#$!&( le, your display of courtesy will be remembered for a long time. Before I leave, I want to add one more thing, Kanye not only stole the light from Taylor, but he also stole the light from Beyonce. Because of his one selfish action, Taylor lost her time in the spot light and Beyonce lost hers, becuase of doing the right thing and giving it back to Taylor. Congradulations Kayne you killed two beautiful birds with one ugly stone.
