West,Timberlake,Jackson and Prince

Rapper KANYE WEST has paid tribute to JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE as the only other contemporary musician as influential as him, and claims the pair are the modern day equivalent of PRINCE and MICHAEL JACKSON. West admits he owes his success to Timberlake. He tells the upcoming October issue of American magazine XXL, "My biggest inspiration and biggest competition is Justin Timberlake. He's the only other person that gets an across-the-board response and respect level - black radio, white radio. "If Justin hadn't come out and killed the game, I can't say that my album, singles and videos would be on the same level that they're on. "We push each other. I look at me and Justin like Prince and Michael Jackson in their day."

Hmmm... What shall we say to these things? Kanye West is the same person that wanted Jesus to walk with him while he smuggled drugs in a rental car from Avis... Don't even waste ur time trying to wrap ur mind around his mode of thinking...
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.

Prince should do a dance number with Kanye & JT on an awards show & end it with a big ol' sloppy, spit-swapping, tongue-entangling mack out session with both of these two talented youngbloods, the same way Madonna did when she passed the torch on to Britney & Christina.

i'm personally surprised kanye admitted he owes anything to anyone. he is awfully egotistical.


wait that's also kind of like saying "I will out do you and last longer" if Kanye is considering himself an equivilant to Prince

I am at a loss for words on this one. Wow, Kanye is just plain crazy.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
