I dont really follow him. Why would people be booing him?

Haters Hating?

 

[lightless_shado]

He thinks he's all artistic and deep and shit now. That he's somehow more than a rapper.

Fuck him

Spoiler

I'll still listen to his albums.

 

[entremet]

Dissing Taylor Swift is serious bizness.

Hey cut Taylor Swift off a year ago, and people are still butt hurt over it I guess. They shoulda booed him for having the audacity to wear a damn gold blouse!

 

[threenote]

Because he fucking sucks. Oh, and because he's a complete asshole.

Perhaps because he can come across as a self-absorbed obnoxius douchebag.

every superhero needs his theme music.

 

[Prince of Space]

Payback for that 40 minute Runaway video.

 

[MMaRsu]

Weird.. but they probably think he's being arrogant. Which he is really, also he's an idiot for saying some of the shit he does.

 

[zero_suit]

People are still bitter about the Taylor incident...

 

[jon bones]

genius is never understood in it's time

 

[Expendable.]

Because he fucking sucks. Oh, and because he's a complete asshole.

bu bu bu bu bu Pitchfork gave his new album a perfect 10.0.

 

[Kibbles]

Apparently he bashed her again recently.

[random: Taylor said in an interview earlier in 2009 that she'd love to work with Kanye. "When reminded that in 2009 she told Allure that the artist she'd most like to work with was Kanye West, Swift said: 'I forgot about that! Oh, wow! That’s...wow, that’s eerie, isn’t it?”" :lol]

 

[Lunchbox]

Because he fucking sucks. Oh, and because he's a complete asshole.

cause he made some blondie skank that no one will remember in 2 years cry?

kanye is a legend, mid western soccer moms should get over it

 

[butter_stick]

His album is incredible.

Screams from the haters.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

They were mad because he left Fergie on All of the Lights final.

 

[MMaRsu]

I love his music but let's be honest he's a douche.

 

[Ponn]

Apparently he bashed her again recently.

Yea, he did all that apology bullshit then a couple weeks ago stopped in the middle of a concert and started slamming her, George Bush and the Today show talking shit and saying he wasn't sorry and he would have done worse. Usual egotistical arrogant rock star bullshit.

 

[Salazar]

cause he made some blondie skank that no one will remember in 2 years cry?

kanye is a legend, mid western soccer moms and NYC douchebags should get over it

I entirely agree.

 

[Kibbles]

Yea, he did all that apology bullshit then a couple weeks ago stopped in the middle of a concert and started slamming her, George Bush and the Today show talking shit and saying he wasn't sorry and he would have done worse.

Ok, wow, what a fucking douche. He sits there and tells the media he's sorry about everything and feels George Bush, and then he does that?

 

[jon bones]

Because he left Fergie on All of the Lights final.

i change my answer to this :lol

 

[Veidt]

Because he fucking sucks. Oh, and because he's a complete asshole.

.

bu bu bu bu bu Pitchfork gave his new album a perfect 10.0.

For real? And I didn't think that they could possibly sink any lower.

 

[PhoenixDark]

wow he's dressed like a total douche :lol

Can't wait for first week sales of his album, and second week to see if there's a huge drop

edit: fuck taylor swift btw

 

[Ceres]

I find Taylor Swift incredibly fake and annoying and hate every song I've ever heard of hers.

But Kanye is a giant douchebag.

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Ok, wow, what a fucking douche. He sits there and tells the media he's sorry about everything and feels George Bush, and then he does that?

And in the end, his music speaks for itself. Nothing Taylor Swift has done can even hold a shitty, pack-in ipod headphone earbud to his latest and greatest creation.

I mean that whole heartedly.

 

[Dennis]

Kanye fans are so pathetic. He keeps being a giant douche but they keep defending him like a battered wife defends her husband.

 

[Kusagari]

Good. If Kanye feeding off the hatred leads to more albums like MBDTF then I'm all for it.

And in 20 years Kanye will still be remembered while Taylor Swift will be a random tidbit on Jeopardy.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE BUDDY

BE NICE

 

[NinjaFridge]

You guys can see the genius in that. You guys suck, Kanye am God.

 

[Robot 492]

Kanye can be a douche all he wants as long as he keeps putting out great albums.

 

[B.K.]

Because he's a gay fish.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

This holds true:

"Kanye will never be Michael Jackson because he fails the "mom test." End of discussion
Fact: My mom loved Michael Jackson. My mom would not love any album that features the phrase "put the pussy in a sarcophagus.""

 

[butter_stick]

Kanye fans are so pathetic. He keeps being a giant douche but they keep defending him like a battered wife defends her husband.

Most people don't care about the personalities of musicians.

Well, unless they're Taylor Swift's target audience.

 

[vas_a_morir]

wow he's dressed like a total douche :lol

edit: fuck taylor swift btw

I would. Oh God I would.

 

[Always-honest]

Perhaps because he can come across as a self-absorbed obnoxius douchebag.

pretty much this. He acts like he's an intelectual. He's not. Kinda like John Mayer.
But his latest album is an amazing producion.

Funny thing about music is everyone has different tastes. I could give a care less about both of them. I do dislike douchebags that have to walk around extremely arrogantly and pronounce they are the greatest, or they were robbed, or deem other singers unworthy of awards. If you are truly that great you shouldn't have to run around exclaiming it to people over and over. If you can't respect others, don't demand respect, that simple.

 

[jon bones]

not a hemingway fan, then?

 

[wenis]

I love his music but let's be honest he's a douche.

Who cares?

BOOM!

Would you really rather your pop stars be boring idiots that just smile for the cameras? Being a dickhead is cool, man.

 

[BobDylan]

ye dont give a shit. people are just jello of him

 

[Ceres]

cause he made some blondie skank that no one will remember in 2 years cry?

kanye is a legend, mid western soccer moms should get over it

Taylor Swift soldout Gillette Stadium in about 20 minutes today. Bieber Sr and Giselle probably have front row seats too.

I like this answer.

when did he do anything to us to make us feel like a battered wife? his album is amazing, just cause he made fun of im on the bleachers cheerleader chick, everyones supposed to hate him? :lol

 

[NinjaFridge]

not a hemingway fan, then?

I refuse to believe a poster on this forum would make such a comment. REFUSE!

 

[Ezduo]

Damn at this thread. Kanye West is serious business.

 

[MMaRsu]

Who cares?

Obviously the people booing him.

 

[entremet]

I don't know why people care so much about artists being upstanding citizens--major crimes notwitstanding, in which Kanye is blameless. Just give me good music. I'm not trying to have a beer with them.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Dude has a huge ego, but let's be real, it's really hard to not have one when you make outstanding music on the regular, while also existing in a universe where there's ridiculous outrage over you drunkenly interrupting another lame thank you speech at a useless awards show.

Kanye's outrageous actions really fit the bit for the absurd celebrity world he exists in. How can you not love this guy?
