edit: also it's always good to post this from Ayesha Siddiqi on how reverse racism cannot exist.
for something to be racist instead of merely prejudiced there needs to be a historical power relation involved...historically founded societal power relations is what transforms something that might be awkward or 'not pc' into something actively racist
Beck has more musical talent in just his fingertips than Kanye has brain cells. Kanye is the Kardashian of the music industry IMO, talentless.

Co-signed the [proven racist defender]'s sentiment.

amended for you

also personally love the pattern that it's usually black musician/rappers who get slapped with the "no brain cells" label. I mean not only is it presumptuous to assert that kanye is less aware of his image than other artists, it's not like intelligence is a marker of musical talent. so many fantastic musicians are just...dumb
 
I love Kanye. Yes, sometimes he doesn't find the right wording to his train of thoughts and contradicts himself, but, man, is it still entertaining as hell to watch his every next move in the industry.
He has always been genuinely loving making music and being creative, open to pushing boundaries sonically and style-wise. You never know what his next album will sound like. CD and LR are two of my most favorite albums.

Btw, just saw that Kanye once dedicated his won AMA awards to Lil Wayne in '08 on air.

so do the Kanye haters actually make people like Kanye more than they generally would without that negative pressure?
 
OP finds Kanye West fucking around to be racist, but will defend racist and homophobic The Duck Dinasty guy to the death because thats not racism...thats just "freedom of speech"

Get the fuck outta here.

Oh.

Oh my.

Oh my oh my.

On the topic at hand, I love Beck's music, like some Kanye music. Thought it was a little disrespectful for one artist to openly devalue the work of another, but it doesn't stop me loving Beck's music or liking Kanye's music.

Not that it matters, as this Grammy win was actually all the lost votes for Odelay suddenly being found, right? Right.
 

No surprises, MrPressStart has a history of passive aggressive racial shit.

Anyway, I think sonically, Ye is overrated by his stans. But I think it's fair to say he's raised himself above the level of guys like Dre and DJ Premier, who to me, rarely, if ever, leave their musical comfort zones and suffer for it.
I dont think the dude is a some sort of unrivalled rap god at flipping a sample though, and his soul samples being more radio and commercial friendly than the shit than RZA and Pete Rock flipped doesnt make him superior.

I don't mind the guy.

Screw Taylor Swift.

Revising what I sad earlier.

KW is still a massive jackass, his music sucks, but the industry is more entertaining with him, AND OP is a hypocrite.
 
The reason why BEYONCÉ should've won is because of its revolutionary release, coupled with massive hype, critical acclaim and millions of units sold. Who didn't talk about her album during the release?

The GRAMMY Foundation was established in 1988 to cultivate the understanding, appreciation and advancement of the contribution of recorded music to American culture — from the artistic and technical legends of the past to the still unimagined musical breakthroughs of future generations of music professionals.

I don't see anything in the Grammy Foundation's mission statement that fits your bill as to why Beyonce should have won the Grammy for album of the year over Beck.

You can be upset... all I am saying is that you are in for a waste of your life is you are going to be upset everytime somebody offends you. Simple as that.
This is in a response Jonah Hill calling a paparazzi a faggot. But of course Marshawn Lynch not talking to the media and Kanye being a goofy troll at a silly awards show gets him pissed off and indignant.
Mr.PressStart, you aint foolin' anyone.

As I have said. These are my opinions. You and others have made it clear that you don't agre. That is great. We can agree to disagree. However other posters in this thread bringing my children into the conversation is completely uncalled for. Period.
 
I think it is best if you do not talk about my child. Let's refrain from that type of thing please!

In your first post you went out of your way to mention your child
So I was watching the Grammy's last night with my wife... Actually, I was playing with our little girl and messing around on my ipad while my wife monopolized the TV... And I saw the latest Kanye West stunt

though you're ultimately right that your vacant history of defending racists and then calling out impossibly perceived racism against white people should be the focus here, not your family
 
so do the Kanye haters actually make people like Kanye more than they generally would without that negative pressure?

this is a definitive yes for me. Well, more so that his personality has the ability to cause such reactions and intense debate. So I guess yes? Sort of? Now that I think about it a bit more I'm not sure. What are we talking about? Is this earth?
 
Concern-trolling racist isn't an insult. It's what the fuck you are. That is a fact.

It's people like you that make this forum hard to browse at times. With your fake outrage at other folks outrage of racist, homophobic and/or sexist things. Telling us we need to grow thick skin and shit. But now that someone is concerned that you might be passing this bullshit onto your child, now you wanna be outraged? Now you're thin-skinned and boundaries have been crossed?

You've made two threads pearl-clutching over the antics of famous Black dudes. People wanna call you out for the asshole hypocrite you're projecting yourself as, now you wanna catch feelings?

Fuckouttahere. You don't get to play the "Don't talk about my child!" card with your racist ass. I don't give a fuck if you had 10 kids with varying forms of autism. That still don't change the fact that you're a concern-trolling racist.

Co-signed the OP's sentiment.

People make statements like this i wonder if they are actually familiar with Kanye's work or just know of him through his antics.

Controversial statement incoming:

I think both Beck and Kanye are awesome.

Co Signed. Though admittedly it's been a while since i last listened to Beck.

I see a lot of people seem like 'well this guy is an obvious prick, and he hates Kanye West...I should check out this Kanye person"

Lol, What negative pressure?

hm?

agree. I cast that "don't talk about *my* kids" comment away with a jedi to the left. disingenuous as fuck.
 
Has anyone called North Carolina Child Services to report that OP's kids are in dire danger of growing up into little racists?

I like Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy so much that Kanye could literally slap me and i wouldn't really hate him.

But would you call him nigga?
 
I might not be the first one to say this but I feel like people take Kanye too seriously.
lol true. People take everything he says as face value as if he doesn't know what he's doing a big portion of the time. on the other hand it's kinda great because it throws everyone into a frenzy which is ufn
This guy did something stupid?

this was funny when it happened but if you're sincerely using the evidence that a guy bumped his head once to establish a pattern of "stupidity": lmao
What am i looking at here?
Man had his head down for the paparazzi as he came around a corner, bumped his head on a sign

I agree with you man but it's completely not worth getting heated/in trouble for new age concern racists. Shit is ridiculous.
