He was selling his new shoes that come out this week. The little stunt got him a lot of free publicity. As far as what record should have won...it's always some mainstream artist. Usually one who has jumped the shark a long time ago. So either Beck or Beyoncé winning would not shock anyone and would be appropriate. Grammy's are old establishment types about 10-15 year behind what is going. Just look at the crowd.

Very possibly, but a large part of it is ego. He is wealthy enough to afford therapy and meds. This is the second time he's rudely walked on stage. He shouldn't be allowed at the Grammy's any more. He needs a time out.


He was joking. He was laughing in the moment. So were folks in the audience. It sounds like you folks on this thread need to lighten up, not Kanye.


You must not have seen his interview after the show with E! He wasn’t joking.

That's not the point. In that moment, he was joking. Even though he felt that way, he was not pissed but rather wanted to jokingly cause a scene. Seriously, you folks are entirely humorless.

So funny that you keep defending him. He clearly misbehaved -- he is not the judge and jury for the Grammys. Has anyone else stormed the stage -- twice -- because he felt that Beyonce didn't win her gazillion +1 award?

Some people can attempt to rationalize any childish, selfish behavior.
He’s an idiot.

Armenians aren't white.

Don't forget that white doesn't mean Caucasian.

Any kind of artist should know enough to support each other. You shouldn't play the fool when you lose - in sports, music, anything. Learn to grow up and shut it.

Truth is the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences were pissed at Beyoncé because she surprised the entire music industry by releasing her latest self-titled album only on iTunes first with no warning, no other promotion, no launch parties, no advance radio play, none of the traditional pre-sale retail hype -- she turned the industry upside down in a sense and showed how a true star can break the industry glass ceiling and they didn't like it. Period. Beck didn't deserve that award.


Finally, someone with some sense on this thread. Doesn't matter if you like Beyonce or Kanye. What matters is that the album was groundbreaking. Before she did it, it had never been done. And she did it phenomenally. The Grammys would never reward that sort of thing...would encourage other artists and musicians to get from under the thumb of the immoral music industry.

BTW, music is all about taste levels. I think Beck sucks. And even HE was surprised he won. What kind of sucky ass musician doesn't think enough about his own music that he's surprised he won?!


A real artist shouldn't care who receives the Grammy. You and Kanye can stop being outraged for Beyonce. She's doing fine without the award. Well, except she's married to Jay-Z.


Where is my outrage? Didn't realize that is what happens when you post a response on a thread. Are you similarly outraged?

BTW, I don't know Jay-Z or Beyonce. I don't know their marriage. They seem to be in love and devoted to one another and their daughter. That's good enough for me.
