The fact that you mentioned Andrew Dice Clay sort of proves the point of being famous, you can love them or hate them, you'll always remember them. Kanye will always be remembered for his Bush comment and his ego trips, love him or hate him.

1st thing, 1st. Get my name, and get it right, doll

Basicaly, they were on the process of recording a duet(mid-70's). She was throwing a list of demands on him that could choke a horse,,,,he dragged his manager(or assistant) to the bathroom and said to him "She scares me. She don't want to sing with me, she wants to boss me around".

Left his manager standing in the bathroom with Dionne calling him to hurry up, while he used the bathroom's window to run

I swear I'm not making this up,,,ya'll could just get the book and read the damn thing for yourselves.

(Sorry for tiping ur name wrong... )

Thank you. Nuff said.

To LastDecember: Anyone COULD have said what he said about George Bush but no one DID. NO ONE. If this were the 80s EVERYBODY would have said it, got together and made a "We Are The World" song about him and demanded change at every performance at every concert. The music industry is full of POSERS these days. Kanye is a shit talker. He is not deceptive about it and he himself has told everyone what time it is with him. If I walk into a room and tell you I'm a killer, you're a damn fool if you're shocked when I shoot somebody. If a known attention whore takes over a microphone at an awards show, how is that surprising? Only an idiot would be shocked.

Still, that doesn't make it right. The music industry already has a black eye because of shit like this. Kanye is talented, I'll give him that, but it's just disrespectful to go charging up onstage after being beaten out, pissed off because you wasted a million dollars on a stupid fucking video. Honestly, I'm kinda surprised you're defending him Blaque.

WHAT AN ASS WIPE

An utter ass wipe.

This guy is such a complete wanker, I don't know how anyone could stick up for behavoir like this. He sickens me. Regardless of how great he thinks his work is, he needs to learn humility. I hope he never wins another award for anything except for perhaps "asshole of the year"! Big fucking deal that the video cost 1 million and who really gives a rats ass that Pam "bimbo" Anderson was in it. I certainly don't.

BlaqueKnight said:

For what? He's still in the top ten and her album went straight wood.


Btw- Kayne's an idiot. That fact that dogged Bush by stating the obvious does not get him a free pass to be an idiot over an award he didn't win.

like most Hip hop artists/posers he is pathetic.

guitarslinger44 said:

I'm not. I'm just not making as big of a deal of it as some. Remember, he's "the international asshole". I'd be shocked if it were someone like Chris Brown or Mario.

Kanye's an asshole. And Justin is still a lil' BITCH.
He fucked over Janet. He's a bitch - with or without a hit record. ...and NO, it doesn't make it right. I'm just not acting all surprised like some people are. Its not like this is the first time he's publicly bitched about losing an award. He likes trophies. We get it. He really needs to quit his antics but I hope he doesn't because he's entertaining to me. I'm being honest about it.

Sometimes it just makes U wish his jaw was still WIRED SHUT!!!!!

BlaqueKnight said:

EXACTLY EXACTLY EXACTLY!!!!! why aren't you guys getting it??? and it isn't the first time someone has stormed the stage before for not winning an award.....ya'll mean to tell you don't remember when Ol' Dirty Bastard crashed the grammy's nearly 10 years ago??? wu tang is for the children!!!

I aint mad,
sure he could've showed more respect,
but he's being himself,
he doesn't kow tow to anyone
if he wants to think hes the best let him,
its better than people thinking their the best inside and pretend to be modest outside like our boy ermmm
well... u know...


Kanye is a dick inside & out,
what u see on tv is what he is like in reality
and thats admirable...

I don't know Snapz. Flavor Flav took "acting a damn fool" to new height after 4 straight years of Reality TV.

BeatsPerMinute said:

Since you're the thread-starter BPM (cool stagename BTW ):

THIS is same Kanye West that was so publicly piss-off that Gretchen Wilson beat him out for "best new artist" at the America Music Awards a few years back. So we all should have been use to watch Kanye being silly at award shows by now.

Yeah.....BUT ODB did it with some CLASS!!!!! Shocked a helluva lotta people. Whereas Kanye's just actin' like a lil' BEE-YOTCH!!!!! Don't give this ni**a NO MORE PLAQUES. GIVE HIM PADS!!!!!

whatever.

dork.

by the way, what is the EMA? is it the european music awards?

woogiebear said:

how was the way ODB did it with class exactly?

BlaqueKnight said:

Kanye has a tendency to speak before he thoroughly thinks it through. When he made that comment about Bush, I could only laugh and think to myself, "Dude, why the fuck did you just say that on a nationally televised program? You're soo going on the FBI Watch List." You don't say things that can piss off the government on TV. They will arrest your ass and call you a terrorist, even if it's not true. Possible threat to the President. They're the government and they have more power and money than even you. You only say stuff like that to people who know you and won't use it to fuck you over. He obviously thought about what he said sometime after the program, because he apologized. I bet'cha his ass won't say it again. Nowadays, they put people on the Most Wanted list for saying lesser evils about the government or the President. He needs to leave his little temper tantrums strictly to awards shows and not try to get political.

MartyMcFly said:

That's true. I was surprised how slow he was to catch fire over here, not until maybe last year, and then public fascination with him lasted for a total of maybe, 3-4 months ?
