Kanye West at the Grammy's

[Anonymous]

Sidenote: I don't think lyrics have anything to do with winning a Grammy. Let's not forget, Baby Got Back won one.

People want to cry racism when the word thug is used, or claim that it is the new "N" word-news flash-a thug connotates "a criminal type" of any race (sadly a good majority happen to be people of color).

Umm...what exactly is that supposed to mean?

Did you just arrive to America??? (hopefully you are here legally)

I said this in the other thread, but I thought this was a great moment of comic relief in an otherwise tedious broadcast. This and 45 Seconds were the best parts of the night. The Grammy producers ought to send West giant effing fruit baskets year round and reserve him front row seats into perpetuity.

This is a committee that awarded best album to an album that sold 300,000 copies (as compared to Beyonce's 5 million). Not that it's all about popularity, but c'mon! 300k! Even Beck thought Beyonce would win! (Beck also encouraged West to come back onstage after he smiled and went back.)

This is a committee that doesn't even broadcast the rap awards.

This is a committee that awarded best metal album to Tenacious D. C'mon!

The Grammys are kind of a joke. I'm tired of all the white privilege on display and celebrated at award shows. At least Kanye is abrasive, but he's not wrong.

Not "at least," sorry. Meant to say Kanye may be abrasive, but he's not wrong.

Do you honestly care who wins? All award shows are a big celeb circle jerk.

I will say the only thing Kanye West had been correct about was Pres. Bush.

Beck plays actual instruments and is a real musician. Beyonce just shakes her ass. She's an entertainer; slightly more talent than a stripper. Beck may have not sold as many records but the "masses" aren't the best arbiters of taste (or musical sophistication).

Hmmm...Why would you assume 50 Cent would kick Kanye's ass? 50 Cent is a businessman. With that comment, you actually revealed yourself to be a bigger asshole than Kanye could ever be.

Curtis James Jackson III, known as 50 Cent, was born on July 6, 1975, in the borough of Queens in New York City. After an early life of crime, drugs and violence, he turned to a career as a rapper. He was promoted by hip-hop legends Dr. Dre and Eminem, and he became a star with his debut release, Get Rich or Die Tryin', in 2003. He is considered one of the major figures in early 21st century "gangsta" rap.


He's a Gangsta rapper before anything else-you are the biggest asshole. Perhaps you should hook up with Kanye!

Again, what the FUCK does any of this have to do with your suggestion that 50 Cent would whoop his ass? He's NOW a businessman worth many millions. Why would you think he's still prone to violence? BTW, "gangsta rapper" does not equal hardened criminal.

"You can take the Gangsta outta the hood-but you can't take the hood outta the gangsta"-look what happened to Tupac and Biggie. They are all businessmen worth many millions-many of them still act like "Gangstas" and/or thugs. Tupac even tatooed his belly-Thug 4 life.

I have to disagree. Outside of Shug Knight, I can't think of anyone from that era who is legitimately (not part of a persona) involved in that lifestyle anymore. 50 cent (like Ice Cube, Diddy, Dr. Dre, Ice T, Jay Z) used rap to break into the entertainment business and music has become an afterthought. Even Kanye West would probably quit rapping if his dreams of being a serious fashion designer came true. These guys know where the money is and it's not in making music.

Seriously! Dr. Dre is a GENIUS. Beat by Dr. Dre A $1.5 billion headphone company (2013). And acquired by Apple for cool $3.0 billion That is an amazing thing.

Beck did not take his own album very seriously. He considered it a prelude to his more artistically serious next album that he's been working on for a year. Beck himself thought Beyonce would win. He didn't mind that West got up on stage. He smiled and said "come back!" after he left.

It's a lovely album with some beautiful songs, but it sure wasn't beautiful enough to make an impression on most of America, many of whom were scrambling to remember anything they'd heard from it before. Nice album? Of course. Album of the year? Come. On.

Only if you are an old white dude and your version of heavy metal is Tenacious D.

Sheeple already happened. Five years ago. DCUM is, as usual, old meme.
