I never liked Kanye's music, him also as a singer, the lyrics are scary. I certainly did not appreciated when Taylor Swift was getting her award, he goes in and said that award was suppose to be for Beyonce no Taylor. Ok who died and made you in charge? I do not follow his music at all, and i will never do.

He also has a song where he basically says that he knows how people are maimed and/or killed for the "blood diamonds" in Africa, but he will still wear his diamond bling anyway because that is his style. Way to throw Africans under the bus Kanye!

Way to throw Africans under the bus Kanye!Curious about that Taylor Swift incident. Why would Obama feel compelled to comment? Why did he do it? It screwed up his career. Is he just a jerk, or was he conveying the truth? Taylor has moderate talent (at best). Who made her cinderella?As far as wearing diamonds, well at least he raised awareness. Maybe his diamonds are not blood diamonds. Who knows.
One last thing. Last 4 lyrics to KanYe's Monster:I-I crossed the line-lineand I’ll-I’ll let God decide-cideI-I wouldn’t last these showsso I-I am headed home

Maybe his diamonds are not blood diamonds. Who knows.I don't know why Obama commented or even what he said, but the bottom line is that Kanye RUINED a very important moment in Taylor's life and career. Maybe Beyonce should have won but she didn't. Taylor won and Kanye ruined the moment for her. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a super Taylor fan either, but there was NO EXCUSE for what Kanye did to her. And no Taylor is not Cinderella, but she didn't deserve what Kanye did. What "truth" are you getting at? If Kanye had really wanted to raise awareness about blood diamonds, he could have just simply issued a statement about the travesty of it or even stop wearing diamonds himself. I would hardly call that song "raising awareness" about the issue.
Kanye talks about the whole Taylor Swift thing in one of the videos in the first post of this thread. It seems like he is trying to be as vocal as he can about how things work in the music industry. Check it out....it's pretty interesting. It's towards the very end of the video...but the whole video is good.

I would hardly call that song "raising awareness" about the issue.imho kanye only told the truth when he so called ruined her moment. not only was she not better than beyonce she wasnt better than anyone in that catagory. she wasnt that well known compared to the others. so bottom line is once kanye took the stage it basically made her extremly popular if you check you will find out that she made tons of money after that incident her album went off the charts and now she is one of the leading artist out there. so in a way she should be thanking him for giving her a boost.
Getting back to my original post, does anyone have any theories on why both artists would almost simultaneously come out with a song called 'Monster' and an album cover in which they appear with gold crowns on their heads. MJ is holding a sword and a sword is driven through Kanye's head. If this is not a coincidence, what is the meaning? Or am I too far adrift?

She doesn't need to thank Kanye for anything. The bottom line is that Kanye had yet another one of his childish rants at an awards show, and he deserves every bit of the subsequent backlash that he has endured.
