seriously, what was the purpose?
and as for the raising of Kanye...leave his momma out of it please.

Yea it's old and tired now... It was Funny on SNL but now it's just over kill

Good he deserves everything that gets thrown at him, is it dumb, sure, is it playing into his game, sure, but, hey, lets not forget who started all this crap, Mr. West. I still feel that cmas feel that Kanye's burst last time was a racially motivated thing, i mean Mary J didnt beat beyonce, rihanna didnt win, the blonde white girl did.

I'm sorry. .....those were too funny. I applaud the country community for joking about the situation. To me, they didn't really diss him or his mom. They just said don't let you babies grow up to be Kanye.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but how do you get that the cmas may think it was a racial thing? I don't think it is racial at all.

lastdecember said:

but Mary nor Rhianna was nominated in that Category, everyone was white except for Beyonce

Beyoncé: "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)"
Lady Gaga: "Poker Face"
Taylor Swift: "You Belong With Me"
Kelly Clarkson" "My Life Would Suck Without You"
Katy Perry: "Hot 'N Cold"
Pink: "So What"

Exactly! I don't see how so many people think race played a part in any of this.

daPrettyman said:

Well Kanye has never pulled this on another artist that hasnt been white, the times he has jumped up or bitched or cried its always the white redneck that has won. I never him he bitch or jump on stage when Lil Wayne or Jay Z beats him. I understand his opinion is that he sells more (which isnt true anyway) so he should win, and that he is better than everyone because he is doing things different (another lie) he is a follower not a leader. So he just seems to pick his battles and incidents when he knows he wont get beat down for it.

lastdecember said:

I get it now. I still think Kanye needs a good ass beating by a few people and we won't have these issues anymore.

I couldn't see him jumping up on stage if Toby Keith had beat somebody he liked. Toby would beat his ass down so fast.

banks said:

That's cold and true...nothing like the facts

daPrettyman said:

Race plays a part in everything, and it was clearly in his thinking, has he every jumped up on stage when he loses to Jay Z or Lil Wayne. Now its not saying he's a racist, but his thinking is racially motivated, which is how most of america thinks anyway. Cause you know now that someone is gonna run that the cma's are racist at some point in the next few days, or maybe kanye himself.

I don't agree with that completely, but everyone has an opinion of how America is.

I thought it was hysterical, and rightly deserved. It should probably end after this, as not to drag it out, but last night's disses to Kanye were hysterical. Good for them.

Kanye's thinking is that he is not getting the awards because he is Black.....(or that Beyonce did not get the award because she was Black, which kinda made a little sense because how do you win Video of the Year but don't win Best Female Video....) but anyway Kanye is not coming from a place of being discriminating but more from a place of feeling discriminated against, whether that is true reality or not.

Plus he was drunk as hell....

He pulls this shit all the time. When the VMA's were in Vegas a couple of years ago, he had his moment in the spotlight, and performed in a hotel where they had a party going on during the show. They bounced between the awards, and this crazy penthouse suite with performers doing their thing. Lots of action. He performed as well, THEN when he didn't win he was seen, taped, and quoted backstage talking about how he's NEVER returning to MTV, how he's the best thing to happen to music in forever, how he's the savior of music, how he's the end all and be all of music, how he's the voice of the people, etc etc.....same shit we've heard over and over. He accused MTV of being racist, ignoring his brilliance (reminding us of Paula Abdul saying the same thing on her show when she said "They need to realize and treat me like the treasure I am.") Yet, lo and behold, he's back again and again on MTV, submitting videos to them for airplay, appearing at award shows, and then bogarting someone else's time. He's a total fucking loon, he's NOT the voice of the people, he's NOT the savior of music, or even of shit-hop, and he might be damn near insane.

BklynBabe said:

I thought i was the only person that caught that.. I found it odd that she got video of the year but not the best female video... But he was wrong for doing what he did that night and he got what was coming to him..I thought her song on SNL was funny.. I just hope last night was the end of that.

daPrettyman said:

Yes they did. How is it NOT a diss?
Mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be daPrettyman.
That is a diss. You mean to tell me you don't realize when you've been dissed? I know that's not true, because that would make you stupid, and you are not stupid...right?
I don't see how Kanye wouldn't consider it a diss, either. they didn't do that skit out of kindness or because they like him or his music.

Ill take Kanye over Darius Rucker anyday.

We kmow what time it is with this way of thinking. This board is not the place for the discussion, but some of us peep game when we see it.

No, I don't see it as a diss. I see it as a parody. The only way I would take it personally would be if it was a personal attack. That wasn't a personal attack. It was just saying to teach your children manners, tactfulness and respect for others....something Kanye doesn't seem to have much of.

ernestsewell said:

who's to say the car accident didn't fuck with his brain cells a littlie. I freely admit Kanye acts the douche with far too much regularity, and if I had been Taylor Swift I would have probably smacked the shit out of him (well, since you can't assault people these days, yelled for security). He is really not a stupid man though, and he does have talent....and like he says, a really big ego!

Sometimes between him and John Mayer

Darius' album is pretty good.

BlaqueKnight said:

Yeah but things like that always happen, how many times does U2 win album of the year and then lose best Rock album??? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT, if you win best album there shouldnt even be other categories. That goes on every year at every show

lastdecember said:

That's the nature of an award show. I think the voters try to "spread the wealth" to make the playing field more even.

daPrettyman said:

I'm just saying the song says "Mommas don't let your babies grow up to be *inserted Kanye*" and to be sure, I never got the impression that Kanye's mother would have been happy with the way he has been acting or that she did not try to raise him right.

Not a serious question but the fuck you watching the Country Music Awards?

As for who I prefer, both Kanye & Darius can go kiss a shit for all I care.

Negativity still rules the roost and the Kanye/Taylor thing is really overrated, I was over with it the day after the outburst.

daPrettyman said:

Im not even talking about music lol. But even if I were, I'd still take Kanye. His albums are very good imo.

Timmy84 said:

ju buggin', of course I was not watching the country music awards
I'm just covering the news, getting folk all excited LOL

No parent is perfect.

If my mother and father heard me get on television and say "George Bush hates black people", my mother would step up on stage and beat the shit out of me. No matter how old I am. My father would do the same.

I don't think his mother would have been happy with him doing any of that either. However, you have to look at his actions that night. No self-respecting person would show up drunk at an awards show with the bottle of Jack in their hand trying to act as if they were conducting business (which is what he was doing that night...awards shows are part of his business).
