Kayne West Video rant on his Grammy Nomination:
"If I don't win album of the year. I'm.. I'm gonna.. I'm gonna really have a problem with that. I can never talk myself out of it, you know why? because I was in the studio and I put in the work. I don't care if I jumped up and down right now on a couch like tom cruise. I don't care what I do. I don't care how much I [something]. You can never take away from the amount of work that I put into it. So I don't wanna hear all that politically correct stuff. You put the camera in front of me - I'm-a tell you tell you like this: I worked hard to get here. I put my love, I put my heart, I put my money. I don't make.. I'm $600,000 in the hole right now, on that album. And you tell me about being politically incorrect. People love these songs. You talk to somebody who's grandmother just died and listens to Roses. And you tell me about being politically incorrect. I'm talking about history. I never got 5 mics in The Source - never got 5 stars from The Vibe. They said it's not a classic. So, Jesus Walks is not a classic? Roses is not a classic? Golddigger wasn't song of the year? Oh, but Kanye you can't say that! Why? Who are you? I don't know you!"
His 15 minutes are about up aren't they?
Its spelled KAN - YE and pronounced "KAHN-yay". He is a chump girly man. Now Fiddy is THE MAN!
Low self-esteem can be tragic. If only he believed in himself.
Gee...that's too bad.
He sounds so educated.
He needs to learn how to self promote...
I'm wondering what this is supposed to mean.
"So I don't wanna hear all that politically correct stuff."
Guess what a$$hole, neither do we.
I remember him throwing a fit when he lost best new artist to Gretchen Wilson. He was right in that case. She had one garbage song hit it big and he had about 4 garbage songs hit it big (although I still like Jesus Walks). He probably should have one that award.
What in hell is he blathering about? If he is in such debt maybe he should cut back on the Bling Bling, Crystal and fancy pink sweaters. I find it impossible to feel sorry for him. And to answer his questions, No, Kanye, those songs aren't classics.
Blzbba hates Kanye West.
Never heard of him.
tha's about it.... I don't know any of those three songs... I'm officially old... dang, that was quick.
It's a bad move to clue the judges that you don't have the money for the bribes.
When I saw that clip, I felt so sorry for Mike Myers.
Okay, the guy refers to his own recent songs as "Classics," and implies he's going to throw a tantrum of some kind if he doesn't win? I guess his mama neglected to teach him humility, and how to be a good loser. Judging from that latest rant, she probably didn't teach him about speaking proper English, either.
You know, he IS one of the nation's most interesting people!
