Kanye is a rapper and he speaks his mind .....the US don't like that... you've not had that since Public Ememy came on the seen in the 80's....and Chuck D didn't care ....
Any we all know what happened to Biggie and Tupac...when they started to speak up to the media  ????? I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

Kanye Banned from Haiti Telethon from Hiphopwired.com It looks like the actions of Kanye West in the past and his constant issue with checking his ego at the door hasn't paid off for the rapper even now. In an attempt to bring as many supporters as possible to aid in the relief of Haiti, there have been countless telethons being conducted to raise awareness and donations for the country after the devastation that it's suffered. Actor George Clooney is doing his part with his own telethon, but reports are saying that he won't allow West to participate in the fundraiser which will be broadcasted tomorrow. Sources have added that they are going out of their way to ensure that West doesn't make an unwanted appearance, courtesy gawker.com. “After what he said on the Katrina telethon and the way he behaved at the MTV Video Music Awards, everyone agrees it's just best that he does not participate, said a producer. Where some blame it on his passion, others look at it as a little kid trying to just get everyone's attention while embarrassing others in the process. “Kanye has to make everything about himself. He will do anything to steal the spotlight, and, well, this night it's just not about him. There have been no statements released by West. Damn, first President Obama calls him a ‘jackass' and now he's not allowed to help raise funds for Haiti 'smh' the past always finds a way to catch up. _____ Sure everyone knows he can be an asshole, but who gives a person the right to tell them they can't participate in a function to help another country that is dire need? I just don't think this is right. Banning him from an awards show, I can see, but not a charity event. My 
[Edited 1/21/10 11:09am] The fact that they are organizing it gives them the right. If he wants to donate he can but it's not like there is a dearth of people to fill the time slot.  I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

LondonStyle said: MarkThrust said: I'm glad he said what he did about Bush, I'm NOT glad about the forum he used. Not when you're asking for donations, or charity - that isn't the time to alienate half the people you're asking to give. One would think he could put the people in need first, instead of setting the stage for a marginally funny SNL moment. BAN is the perfect approach for this. Now that's funny .....i was just about to give money to people dying in Haiti but i saw Kanye West so i kept it in my pocket..... Do the guys in the US really "think" like this? I'm no mind-reader (and I don't necessarily think it's a 'US' thing)...but I'll wager that Katrina telethon promoters saw the Bush comment as detrimental. Possibly, financailly detrimental to their cause. It's impossible to gauge, isn't it? I guess it boils down to how much risk you want to assume. | |

the government can fund wars and plan false terrorist attacks yet the citizens have to pay for relief?

Rep: Kanye West Not Banned From Haiti Telethon
Outspoken rapper Kanye West has not been banned from Friday's "Hope For Haiti" telethon. Internet rumors claimed that West, 32, was not invited to participate because he criticized then-President Bush during a televised 2005 Concert for Hurricane Relief ("George Bush doesn't care about black people," he said) and for interrupting Taylor Swift's 2009 MTV Video Music Awards speech. "Kayne has to make everything about himself. He will do anything to steal the spotlight and, well, this night it's just not about him," a source told AOL's Popeater. But a rep for MTV tells UsMagazine.com: "That's absolutely not true. We DID reach out to Kanye." Access Hollywood reports that West didn't respond. Who will be at Friday's telethon? President Bill Clinton, Brad Pitt, Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Clint Eastwood, Leonardo DiCaprio, Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, Jon Stewart, Will Smith with Muhammad Ali, Robert Pattinson, Tom Hanks and more. http://www.usmagazine.com...on-2010211 Among the performers: Madonna, Beyonce, Wyclef Jean, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J. Blige, Shakira, Sting, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Dave Matthews, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, Sheryl Crow, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Kid Rock, Sheryl Crow, Coldplay, Bono, The Edge, Jay-Z and Rihanna. Find out how other stars are helping Haiti earthquake victims The telethon airs on a number of networks -- including ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, CNN, BET, The CW, HBO, MTV, VH1, CMT, PBS, TNT, Showtime, COMEDY CENTRAL, Bravo and E! -- and online and mobile platforms at 8 PM EST. Performances from the show will be available on iTunes, with proceeds going to charity. Hope for Haiti Now will begin accepting donations at 12:00 p.m. ET/9:00 a.m. PT on Friday via the following methods: | |

The problem with his "being honest" is that it really appears that he's just trying to get attention. Being brutally honest in a way that was not self-promoting would probably not be so annoying. My Legacy

I'm sure that the producers of this telethon don't want to risk Kanye to go on some outburst, even if Kanye said he would not do such a thing. Having said that, since the MTV VMA's, his appearance on Jay Leno, his off-air apology to Taylor Swift on The View, and his subsequent cancellation of his tour, Kanye has been keeping himself out of the public spotlight. Maybe he really is taking time to reassess his life and grieve for his mom.  | |

Yeah, I don't feel it was right that they banned Kanye. Remember the "Smug" episode of South Park where they dissed George Clooney? He seems to have a big ego too "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

Well that’s one way to give everyone at PETA a mild heart attack and heartburn…. Kanye West and Amber Rose hit up the Louis Vuitton Menswear show in Paris today. It’s Paris Fashion Week so y’all already know Kanye is about to be all in it with his boo. I just didn’t expect them to bust out floor length fur coats over their white tee and jeans and lycraish mini dress. But if they like it… By the way, it seems that the reports of Kanye being banned from the Haiti Relief Telethon tomorrow night are untrue. Sources report that he was not banned. The telethon organizers simply accommodated the celebs who reached out to them about it. And Kanye was not one of them. | |
