If you didn't catch the VMAs last night, i would suggest checking out kanye's performance from it. Very mixed reviews, people either seem to love it or hate it. I loved it, thought it was the perfect song for him to come back to the VMAs with, and he put the whole thing together really well. thoughts?

You've never actually seen him live, because he puts on amazing concerts. I've seen a lot of the hip hop greats perform and he is without a doubt up there with the best performers out there. Here's the show I saw him at, not the best video but you get the idea.

You do realize interrupting acceptance speeches at awards show has been going on for a long time, right? ODB didn't invent it, nor did Kanye...

Not to defend Kanye too much, but he didn't say that (at least in this song). This song was more self-deprecating/apologetic.

Does it have to be purely original to be funny?

Shut up.

Well ODB was actually worth something. He was actually a good rapper. Kanye has been and will always be a huge joke. People who buy the shit he puts out should be kicked in the face.

For the kid that said odb didn't originate it, whatever. I'm not really familiar with what else has gone on. If something like this has happened post it, but the kanye thing is ridiculously similar to ODB's. Maybe people have interrupted speeches before, but that was an attempt at an exact copy for ratings, and he got them.


Kanye is a tool, fuck him. And for the record I can't stand taylor swift, I just hate kanye.

I thought the beat was pretty sick.

but then kanye came in and fuckin ruined the whole thing.  I feel like he makes up his lyrics on the spot, because they are so random and retarted. or maybe he has those magnetic words on his refrigerator and he randomly picks 'em up and whatever he comes up with is his new song.

And the robotic auto-tune thing was fuckin ridiculous. it didn't even sound good

Kanye isnt a joke. He is talented and he knows it. Yes, he is a huge fucking egotistical doucher but fuck it.

Still aren't 14 even? The vma's are stupid. I love music but I hate all the bullshit that goes a long with these awards. Plus listening to people like kanye win awards makes me sick.

Yeah he has so much talent. Technically everyone has talent. Maybe you can eat a waffle really fast or play chess while standing on your head.


As far as legitimate music talent to hype ratio, dude is a fucking joke. His music blows, his attitude sucks,  just like most of the other clowns in the business.

Just to prove a point and hopefully shut you up, tell me how these songs suck and the beats are void of talent.

Jay-Z: Heart of the City, Takeover, Lucifer, This Can't Be Life, Encore

Scarface: Guess Who's Back

Talib Kweli: Get By, Guerilla Monson, Good To You

Dilated Peoples - This Way

Game: Dreams

Common: The entire BE Album

That's just Kanye's first couple years of being a producer, all those classics are his beats. You can dislike his rapping, whatever, but I want you to realize you hate hip hop if you hate everything Kanye has made.
