I remember when Suge got shot at 1 of Kanye parties a couple of years ago, I say pay the hospital bills and offer him a half a million to make it go away

Subject: George W. Bush Calls Racism Accusations Like Kanye West's 'Worst Moment' of Presidency Fri Nov 05, 2010 7:15 am
Former United States President George W. Bush tells Matt Lauer in a new interview that racism accusations like Kanye West's comment "George Bush doesn't care about black people" following Hurricane Katrina brought about the worst moment of his presidency, according to the "Today" show's web site.
That is the link to Kanye on the Today Show this morning. He is such a talented performer, but this interview did not make him look good.
I have a question for any fans here who are more familiar with his demeanor off the stage. Is he always like that? By "that" I mean struggling to articulate and arrogant. I think he should have just released a statement about Bush's book and left it at that. It is all so stupid that it is being brought up again. I am curious to see how he ties it in to his book because I don't think that heat of the moment comment should be given the weight that apparently Bush has given it.

LOL, Kanye is funny. And not the good way anymore. Seriously dude....your mother was an English professor...you should've been able to articulate yourself much better than that. And to answer your question Red, yes....he really does act like that. He's an arrogant little fucker and he thinks too highly of himself. Don't get me wrong, I rock with Kanye for the most part because I do like his music and I do think he's very talented. I used to be one of his biggest fans when he first came out with "College Dropout" but now seeing his antics throughout the years, he really is a douchebag. Can't believe I even thought he was sexy at one point. As far as his commentary on the Bush incident, it pained me almost to watch. Honestly, I never thought Bush personally is a racist. I actually wanna go out drinking with his ass one day. Bush is just a flunky. But most of the policies that he followed were racist, so what was Kanye apologizing for? This interview didn't make him look good at all. I'm no advocate by any means of what the media does, but there was nothing that anybody on the Today show did that was inappropriate. Kanye's a douchebag. Point blank. And I honestly don't see any help for him, esp now that his mom is gone.

Thanks for taking the time to fill me in on how he has been. Too bad he can't be more personable since he is so very talented.

Kanye was booed, heckled and jeered at the Macy's Thanksgiving parade yesterday. Fans of Taylor Swift chanted her name and some were even yelling out for him to jump (off the float.)

I like it alot. Say what you want, Kanye is a jerk but he's one of the most talented musicians out right now. New album is dope as hell! Hands down the best album of 2010. And I'm starting to tolerate Nicki Minaj.

Finally set aside the time to watch it. And you're absolutely right, it is dope. Perhaps the best video of the decade. I especially loved the ballet dancing. Now if 'Ye can only curb his attitude, he'd be easier to rock with.

Paris cold-shoulders Kanye Last Updated: 2:27 AM, March 10, 2011 Posted: 2:03 AM, March 10, 2011 Hotheaded rapper Kanye West got shut out of several runway shows at Paris fashion week after turning up uninvited.
Though the fashion-obsessed rapper attended Valentino, Givenchy and Vivienne Westwood shows this week, he was not invited to Alexander McQueen, Balmain and Louis Vuitton, and defiantly faced off with organizers several times -- most of them unsuccessfully-- for access. Last Thursday, West tried to get into the Balmain runway show at Le Grand Hotel, but was denied entry with his entourage. A source said he then snuck off to "a separate part of the hotel, so people didn't see him" after he was rejected.
A rep for Balmain show organizer KCD explained to Page Six, "Mr. West requested to attend and we let him know we would not be able to accommodate him. He chose to come to the door anyway and we kindly let him know we could not accommodate him." On Tuesday, West tried to get into the McQueen show. "He did not make a request to attend, but he came uninvited," said the rep for KCD, which also ran the McQueen show. West was eventually let in through a side entrance by "venue management, not through the front door," snipped the rep.
Some fashion insiders wondered if West also was booted from the Vuitton show, where Kate Moss walked while smoking a cigarette. Sources said he wasn't on the list and didn't reach out for an invitation -- odd considering he designed a shoe line in collaboration with Vuitton designer Marc Jacobs in 2009. A Vuitton rep would say only, "Kanye remains a great friend of the house." Sources said organizers are tired of celebrities showing up uninvited and expecting VIP treatment. The KCD rep told us, "Kanye has been a welcome guest at several events that KCD has managed over the years. Several designers chose to have smaller shows this season and therefore chose to not invite celebs in order to accommodate press and buyers." West's rep didn't get back to us.

Subject: Kanye West: 'People treat me like Hitler' Wed Aug 10, 2011 11:59 am
August 9, 2011 7:33 AM Kanye West "Hitler" remark his latest flap
(CBS News)
Fans got their first look Monday at one of the most anticipated albums of the summer, "Watch the Throne," a collaboration by Jay-Z and Kanye West, hip-hop's two biggest stars. It hit iTunes, and is slated to be on store shelves Friday.
But, reports CBS News National Correspondent Ben Tracy, the CD's debut is being overshadowed by yet another controversy involving West.
The raw talent that flows so effortlessly out of West's mouth is perhaps only eclipsed by his seemingly endless capacity for sticking his foot in his mouth.
"I am the number one human being in music," he has said. "That means any person that's living or breathing is number two."
This past weekend, the 34-year-old rapper hit another sour note. In a ten-minute, profanity-laced onstage rant during the Big Chill music festival in England, he exclaimed that he often feels as hated as Adolf Hitler.
"I walk through the hotel," he said, "and I walk down the street, and people look at me like I'm (expletive) insane, like I'm Hitler."
"One day," he added, "people will understand everything I ever did, ever said, was to throw myself on the blade for the sake of someone else."
West's notorious self-pity and penchant for feeling persecuted once led to his depiction as a tortured messiah on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.
Billboard magazine Senior Correspondent Gail Mitchell told CBS News, "I think Kanye is being true to Kanye. I don't think he thinks he's doing anything wrong."
West has earned his reputation the hard way.
At the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, he stormed the stage and told a stunned Taylor Swift that Beyonce should have won the award Swift had just been given for best female video.
"Yo, Taylor," he said. "I'm really happy for you. I'll let you finish, but Beyonce has one of the best videos of all-time. One of the best videos of all-time!"
In 2005, while raising money for Hurricane Katrina victims, West infamously said, "George Bush doesn't care about black people."
Mr. Bush later called it one of the most disgusting moments of his presidency.
Of course, creating controversy can also generate album sales, and Kanye's collaboration with Jay-Z is expected to be huge.
"It's very anticipated, it's an event album," Mitchell says. " ... And they're on-track with that album to first-week sales of 400,000-500,000."
West, who has never suffered from an excess of humility, also compared himself to basketball great Michael Jordan this weekend as he started his show a half-hour late.
West's weekend concert also included a tribute to the late Amy Winehouse, and he used the opportunity to swipe at the media, telling them to "lighten up" on the "artists that are still here."

LOL, I wouldn't fuck with Kanye if his music wasn't dope. His mouth is reckless and his attitude is much worse. Somebody needs to whip his ass and humble him up a bit. Real talk.
