The guy is a genius.
From any point of view I look at it, I feel like this was a great move.
For one, it made me actually care about a VMA moment- or get some sort of feeling besides disgust from an MTV broadcast. That is a rare thing.
He's also got Twitter mentioning his name thirty times a second. Sure, these are all clueless morons who deal with the politics of their everyday worklife a helluva lot worse- but they know, man.
You guys are lucky he even SHOWED UP, remember this?
I understand his point of view more than anybody's. I do disagree with his opinion on Beyonce's video, but if he feels that way then absolutely stand up for it. It's for the sake of history. A VMA is a joke of an award- but somebody has to care about gym class, right? He's a passionate guy who actually gives a shit about music.
This is what Pink said on Twitter: "Kanye west is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me."
This was my response: "@Pink Make some good music you manly hack. Kanye atleast cares about his craft, all you do is fit an image, Kanye creates his."

A little personal, and a little hyprocrital considering my opinion on the backlash at Kanye, and she'll never read it, and I only have 220 followers (maybe 7 of them being real people)- BUT, it's reality.
The voice of America.
The guy is creating entertainment for you. He's also creating the best music found in the last two decades of mainstream production. Stop with your scripted responses and open your mind a little bit.
He's not here to please you, fit a mold, or recreate somebody else's path to success- and that's why he's great.

You seem to be overlooking the fact that Kanye West is an egotistical maniac, and has collaborated with garbage like 30 Seconds to Mars.
I agree with this post. He's making serious headlines and that's really all he set out to do. Good for him.
