Kanye West unleashed an amazing outburst after failing to take home the gong for 'Best Video' for his 'Touch The Sky' promo at the EMAs.
Crashing the stage as winners Justice and Simian collected their silverwear for 'We Are Your Friends', the hip hop star spat,
"F*ck dis! (My video) cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it, I was jumping across canyons and sh*t! If I don't win, the awards show loses credibility. Nothing against you (J&S), but hell man."
His verbal tirade left audience members gasping but it didn't end there.
After the show the offended star continued to vent his spleen in the press conference.
He told the world's media he was upset because he had "the best video."
"I haven't seen (the Justice and Simian video). Possibly it could have been quite good but no way better than 'Touch The Sky'.
"That is complete bullsh*t, I paid a million. Obviously it's not all about the money, but the response it got transcended everything, it really made great TV.
"It took a month to film; I stood on a mountain; I flew a heliocopter over Vegas. I did it to be the king of all videos and I wanted to walk home with that award."
He said of the Justice and Simian's win: "That was some spread the love bullshit, 'Oh everyone should have an award'. Please press people print 'Kanye says f*ck that!'
This is so hysterical. He stood on a mountain and flew a helicopter over Vegas and he didn't win? He's just a sore loser.
Musical Genius, that’s stretching it a bit. Marketing Genius is more appropriate. He is the recipient of MTV’s new “Needs a Straight Jacket” Award.
On another note, what’s wrong with Hollywod Rags Server? I know for a fact (or do I?)it is Friday Nov 3rd 2006 11:29 AM or atleast it is here in California. Also for last couple of weeks half the time myposts don’t even show up.
I laughed my ass off at what he said during the hurricane situation, just because at the time it didn’t seem like the President gave a rats ass about black people. George Bush is a moron, but this guys right there on his level now. way to go kenya or kanye or whateverthehell.
He was making music before he was famous, with and FOR Famous rappers. Maybe he isn’t a “musical” genius from a 5th grade music class perception, but the man can mix some shit and some of his hooks are just hilarious. I AM NOT STICKING UP FOR HIM. I STILL THINK HE’S A TARD.
An easier solution would be to use a box cutter and slice his entire lips off. I try to do it in one fleshy piece. He’ll never sing again and will have a contant smile on his face!!

Um, he was serious and passionate when he made the remark about Pres Bush, and I for one applauded it. Someone needed to say SOMETHING. Now, I don’t think it was black people Bush didn’t care about, it was POOR people he didn’t give a fvck about.
These comments are just plain annoying and screaming for attention. Notice how all anyone is talking about today in regards to this award show is Kanye? I’d say he’s a genius.
okay——it wasn’t just black peeps he didn’t care about—-i get that. But Kanye used that as his crutch because 95% of the population in the 9th ward were african american. GWB doesn’t give a shit about anyone in this country but HIMSELF and the people who monitarily contribute to his camp. You don’t see Georgie runnin out and bringing an African home….
All Kanye does is rip off and/or sample other people’s music.
Touch the Sky? More like Curtis Mayfield’s Move on Up, sampled the hell out of and completely destroyed.
Last laugh is on you, Kanye, sample bitch. You can stand on top of Mount Everest with Pamela Anderson and fly over the Great Wall of China in a Lear jet, but you’ll always be a sample bitch. Write your own goddamn music for a change!
uh. Well, I watched both videos and I’ve got to ask…WTF did he spend a million damn dollars on? Pamela Anderson? That video was not all that great…in fact, I disliked it very much. He has got an extremely high opinion of himself and his work. The other one (that won) I thought was “o.k.”, but if I had to choose between the two I’d choose “We are your friends”, atleast it was kinda funny…weird, but funny.
Kanye needs to go suck an egg and chill the fu** out. If you can’t take losing, don’t compete.
Thanks stass, I didn’t mean to imply that he didn’t make great music at all. I love “touch the sky” and EVERYTHING with John Legend. But from most of his interviews and his foo-bars, I think he is Bi-Polar.
About GWB, his time is drawing to a close and he will leave office with the lowest approval rating ever. Hope that brother Jeb is not lying when he tells us that he has no interest in running in 2008
So this turd goes off again. When will the dildos of the world realize that making and listening to rap is the sonic equivalent of spending a Saturday afternoon laying on your living room floor with your legs flipped over your head and your knees straddling your ears, trying desperately to lick the taint from your sack? Caucasian racists now have evidence for one stereotype about Black people; music that’s nothing more than the same six notes repeated ad nauseum is a sure sign of laziness. I saw this fuckhole on Tavis Smiley when his first fuckhole album was coming out and he flip-flopped back and forth between tortured soulful artist to baddest-assest muddah fuggah from da muddah-fuggin’ hood. I suffered through this assmunch’s set at an E! Networks party where he played some 60’s R & B classics (classics meaning before every dicksmack warbled his or her voice continuously like a drowning Down’s Syndrome victim) and rappedy-dapped, “ooh- ooh- uhh- uhh- ehh- ehh- ee- ee- I be Kanye Smackass an’ you be bettah buy my cwappy album rightfast.” Did you ever notice that people who follow the street trash vision of hip all say, You know what Ahm sayin, so much basically because theyve fed in to the Ghetto-ese slang so deeply that they can no longer form complete sentences and are forced to rely on other people to deduce whatever fucked-up primitive thoughts theyre trying to formulate? Theres a moment in George Orwells 1984 where the main character and his friends discuss the latest edition of the Newspeak dictionary soon coming out thats edited a few thousand more words out of the language and they remark about how much easier it will be to speak to people without them. Now Im going to explain this real simple-like for the rappers and rap fans out there less words, less thinking stuff ways. Now after theyve figured that last part out, I want all the rappers and rap fans out there to line up at the southeast corner of Hollywood and Vine later today, where Ill be sitting in a lawn chair and you can each take your turn licking my balls shiny clean and new. Bring Kanye and Snoopy-Doop and Fitty Thinth with you and poke em with sticks for a while to make em surefire mad. I have this theory that rapfucks all desperately try to come off so intimidating to other people because theyre actually all a bunch of pussies and my ten-year-old unpracticed Kung Fu could leave them all whining, I be all bleeding-like n shit, you know what Im saying? Thank you and please quit listening to moron music.
HATE HATE HATE Kanye, he’s a f*ckin’ idiot who deserves to be shot…HE’S JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE THAN DIDDY! HE’S AN EROGANT (SP?) COCKY SON OF A B*TCH BASTARD WHO THINKS HIS DICK DON’T STINK! I HATE PEOPLE, EXCUSE ME A*S HOLES LIKE HIM…I HOPE HE LOSES FANS BECAUSE OF THIS! HE WAS TOTALLY RUDE TO THOSE GUYS!!!!!!!! I WOULDA CLOWNED HIM LIKE, “GET THE HELL OFF THE STAGE LOSER…YOU DIDN’T WIN THIS CATEGORY….OBVIOUSLY YOUR VIDEO WASN’T THE SH*T AND OURS WAS….BUU BYE!”
wow if i didn’t know better i would say he was a bitch ass diva..and calling him an idiot isn’t enough.all rappers are uncreative pieces of shit.they have no vocabulary so they make up words.words that are stupid as hell..i say take him to a library and give this man an education better than he has…he wants to be a martin luther king jr..but he never will be.he’s just ghetto trash.
King of all videos? What. The. Fuck. Even though his career has been damaged by his personal life, Michael Jackson is and always will be the king of all videos.
This Kanye West should get his mouth wired shut again. What a conceited asshole.
I dislike this guys attitude so much. First, he disses president bush and then this? His ignorance and arrogance are inexcusable. I wish the public would stop buying his albums and stop attending this guys concerts. Quit feeding this jerks ego. And the video that hes talking about sucked. I remember seeing it and thinking how il produced it looked. Get back down to reality kenya or whatever your name is.
What a f*ckin idiot. He is retarded. I mean, seriously mentally challenged. He is the perfect example of someone that is always thinking they are a victim. I bet he feels stupid for dropping a cool mill on the video now. Does he make his videos to show his artistic talent or to win awards? Stupid @ss f*cktard idiot. StasslovesDAS, I will get the plyers and wire if you do the work…...
Do you want to know the worst part about the majority of these comments? That you’re all impressed with your ability to be racist morons. Furthermore, that you’re willing to allude to the idea that you’re doing more than any of the people posted about meanwhile you’re likely unsuccessful rubbish sitting ignorantly in your homes while ravishing the latest celeb gossip simply because your lives are so mundane. Obviously, this goes far beyond this specific post, but how do you stomach yourselves? People like Karl Marl should likely consider offing themselves, because as it stands they’re just wasting space.
And to people who say things like “I’m not sure it’s black people George Bush doesn’t care about, but rather poor people”, that just shows how ignorant and obviously white you are. While I’ll agree that he doesn’t care about poor people either, it’s more than a mix of the two.
In short, fuck all ya’ll.
And um… Kanye West is kind of an idiot, but that’s okay.
So Bolty, what the cock are you doing here if not ‘ravishing the latest celeb gossip’? I read blogs for the same reason as I figure most other people do; to kill time drinking my morning coffee before starting work. Oh yeah, before I forget why I�m responding; PS, I’m not a racist. I argued vehemently with my family’�s racist attitudes until I was old enough to get out of there. If you wanna point and pronounce, call me an elitist. I don’t give a rat’s ass about the color of someone’s skin, but I do try to care about someone’s Intelligence Quotient. I don’t like waiting for a street light to change and some cheesesmack gangster wannabe drives up blasting some piece of fuck rap song so loud, it makes the nearby buildings’ windows vibrate and Snoop Doogity Diggity is going on about taking a woman to a party and introducing her to the host and she smiles at the guy and Snoop Poogity Choogity slaps her in the mouth, because she’s only supposed to look at him and there’�s some little kid standing next to me listening to all this and I�‘m forced to wonder if he’�s thinking that that’�s how men are supposed to behave toward women. That’s not funny. That’s not clever. That’s certainly not an example of any sort of musical talent. I don’�t see how that�‘s anything more than just another backassward attempt to squeeze out the last machopaste from a dead, dry tube of lyrics. ...and when rapfucks of any race giggle at that and say, “Zasso fonny, Snoop be slappin’ hos aroun’ fo’ not be lookin’ at him,” I feel saddened that they can’t see that they’ve desensitized themselves so much from listening to so much of this dickcheese music, that the only way these pseudo-musicians can get a response out of them is to rappity-wap about oppressing women. You wanna hate me? Go ahead. Plenty of dumbasses I�ve come across have come to hate me because I say what I mean and I mean what I say and I�m pretty goddamned clever with manipulating the English language when I do it. You wanna single me out? Go ahead, I�ll take the attention and run with it. �...but you pulled out the R-card, R-tard, and after re-reading most of the posts here, I don’�t find any racist comments whatsoever. This fucked up society has come to this scaredy-cat PC mentality that to say something bad about a Black man is to automatically call out for a lynching party. I don�t hate Kanye West because of his melanin count; I hate him because he’�s an idiot and joined in with the rest of the idiots, 90% who happen to be Black, to make some of the worst contributions to popular music in its aesthetic history; after that same 90% did so much to create and establish the genre in the first place at the beginning of the last century. So don’�t wave your self-righteous rainbow flag in my face and accuse me or anyone else here of something we�‘re not.
This is interesting but while we’re on the subject of rap representing black people, i can see where bolt is coming from…by an inch. I don’t think there was racism with the posts at all, but it seems like the perfect thread to let out some steam about kanye, rap, and on to things associated with black people. I don’t think some of these things have to do with what the thread is about, but it’s how people feel. Maybe some things said may offend people or maybe hurts them because of the way they were said.
That worthless piece of rapping crap should have been drowned at birth, it would have done the world a favor, oh him and P Diddy or what the hell ever he is calling himself these days. Damn!
