Jimmy Kimmel Skit Severely Angers Kanye West


Recommended Posts

You're just being ridiculous. Say all you want about his personality, indeed he is a though pill to swallow. However there's no one more talented in pop right now.

Indeed.

There is no one talented in pop right now.

If it weren't for intruding on Taylor Swift and boning Kim K. 95% of people wouldn't know or care about the bipolar SOB - and most don't anyhow. Once Kim K. is done with him his non-producing shelf life is very limited.

agreed, also, there's no such thing as bad publicity. Im glad to say Kayne who?

It's my understanding that Kanye West is some sort of rapper and I can honestly say that's about all I know about him.  I know I've heard the name before but couldn't name a single one of his songs.  Not sure why anyone should care about his apparent tantrums.

Art curator, fashion designer, industrial designer, graphic designer, great music producer, fantastic music composer and lyricist and even have directed a couple of short films witch have been presented at art galleries. So yes, to me, that's what a genius do.

Nobody disputes that he engages in a wide range of creative endeavours, nor that they are commercially successful, but that doesn't mean he warrants the title "genius". His music is mostly derivative, sampling other successful tunes and contributing little to nothing to them.

 

In my eyes he is a nobody, an arrogant and obnoxious influence that society could do without, and certainly not even close to being a genius.

Today I was reading the news and remembered your post. Kanye West has just been appointed to curate three pavilions of the Venice Bienalle, the most important art event in the world. Not everyone can be appointed with such task since a committee reunites every year to select a possible name from a list of intelectual, artists, critics and sociologists. Your talent and cultural pertinence has to be undisputed to be selected to task such honor.

 

Disregard the satire reaction the internet has having in the moment. The bienalle account itself announced the event.

 

Such an accomplishment for a nobody, huh? ;)

I'm not disputing that he is an incredibly successful individual who has made a large contribution to culture and music. I simply refute the notion that he is a "genius" when I listen to the drivel he spouts out in interviews or his derivative and unpleasant music. Genius denotes intelligence and Kayne West falls well short of that bar.

Genius denotes intelligence, indeed, but it rarely denotes emotional stability to fully articulate that intelligence. If you dont believe me read some books about Picasso or Dali.

I simply haven't seen any evidence that Kanye West is intelligent, let alone a genius. To me musical geniuses would be people like Elton John, Freddie Mercury or even someone as contemporary as Lady Gaga - intelligent people who act as positive role models and have undisputed songwriting capabilities. Kayne West isn't any of those things; in fact he's the polar opposite. I mean, next you'll be telling me than Snooki is a genius too!

Did you know that Gaga's best music was produced and written by both Kanye West and Alexander McQueen?

No I didn't, because it's not true. Kayne is not listed in the credits for any of her albums, as producer or songwriter - nor in the list of her recorded songs. And Alexander McQueen is a fashion designer who is referenced by Lady Gaga but wasn't involved in writing or producing her music. I honestly don't have a clue what you're talking about.  :s

Dude, you've got a hard-on for him. We get it.

But the guy is a loser. Those 'achievements' you mention don't mean crap. You could get a hamster to do any of that. And being invited to 'curate' some art exhibits is done for publicity. Just shows how friggin shallow the world is. It would be easy to name heaps of other losers even more famous. Like Kardashian.

    • Deal for those who want 1900 size electronics in their house? with 2026/7 hardware mhm.. not nice
    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
