New Kanye-Robo Cop

Kanye West-Robo Cop(Zshare Leak)

Kanye has inspired me to do an all auto tune album; after listening to Robo Cop, I've concluded that this sounds like the shit I make when I'm in the shower or staring at myself in the mirror. REALLLLY?

Because West is such an egotist, I'm sure that's exactly where this garbage came from.

Oh Kanye...

Kanye in response to angry fans and the media outlets that accused him of "not giving his all on stage @ Bannaroo"...

I am sick of negative people who just sit around trying 2 plot my downfall... Why???? I understand if people don't like me because I like me or if people think tight clothes look gay or people say I run my mouth to much, But this Bonnaroo thing is the worst insult I've ever had in my life. This is the most offended I've ever been... this is the maddest I ever will be. I'm typing so fucking hard I might break my fucking Mac book Air!!!!!!!! Call me any name you want.... arrogant, conceited, narcissistic, racist, metro, fag whatever you can think of.... BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL! NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL! THIS SHOWS NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO BE GOOD AT SOMETHING THERE WILL BE PEOPLE THERE TO LIE ABOUT YOU AND BRING YOU DOWN! LIKE WAYNE SAYS PLEASE DON'T SHOOT ME DOWN CAUSE I'M FLYING! I'M FUCKING HURT BY THIS ONE. ALL I CARE ABOUT ARE THE FANS. JUST SAY THIS OUT LOUD IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE, "KANYE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GIVING A GOOD PERFORMANCE." CAN ANYONE HONESTLY SAY THAT ????????? HAS ANYONE EVEN TAKEN THE TIME TO AT LEAST DO THE MATH??? BONNAROO SHOULD HAVE RELEASED A STATEMENT IN MY DEFENSE BUT SINCE THEY HAVEN'T LET'S BREAK DOWN THE WALLS ON THIS TRUMAN SHOW AND LET YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY OCCURRED!!! FOR OVER A MONTH WE WENT BACK AND FORTH ON WETHER OR NOT WE COULD EVEN FIT MY STAGE AT THE FESTIVAL. ONE DAY THEY WOULD SAY YES... WE'D SEND THEM OUR SPECS THEN THEY THEY'D SAY OK... THEN THEY WOULD SEND SPECS BACK THAT DIDN'T FIT THE STAGE. WE WERE OBVIOUSLY DEALING WITH FUCKING IDIOTS WHO DIDN'T REALLY HAVE THE CAPACITY TO REALLY PUT ON THIS SHOW PROPERLY. THEY TRIED 2 GIVE ME A TIME SLOT WERE IT WAS STILL LIGHT OUTSIDE ... I HAVE A FUCKING LIGHT SHOW DUMB ASS, IT'S NOT CALLED GLOW IN THE DARK FOR NO REASON SQUID BRAINS! MY PEOPLE WORKED OUT A COMPROMISED STAGE PLOT AND A 3AM TIME SLOT AND I AGREED. FAST FOWARD TO THE DAY OF THE SHOW. MY PRODUCTION MANAGER TRIED TO LOAD IN FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE I WENT ON STAGE BUT THE FESTIVAL WOULDN'T ALLOW US TO DO ANYTHING UNTILL PEARL JAM LEFT THE STAGE. PEARL JAM ENDED ONE HOUR
LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT THAT POINT WE'RE RACING AGAINST THE SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT 4:20AM DON COMES BACK 2 THE BUS AND TELLS ME, " IT WOULD TAKE 45 MORE MINUTES TO PUT ALL YOUR PYRO IN!" I SAY I HAVE TO GET OUT THERE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE . I HIT THE STAGE AND PEOPLE HAD BEEN THROWING SHIT ON THE STAGE AND HAD ACTUALLY HIT THE JANE SCREEN WITH, I GUESS BOTTLES OR SOMETHING AND HAD BROKEN MY FUCKING SCREEN. REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE A SHORTY AND WATER WOULD HIT THE TV?????? WHEN I GOT 2 "THROUGH THE WIRE" I STEPPED ON THE FRONT PART OF MY STAGE AND THERE WAS SO MUCH LIQUID ON THE STAGE I COULDN'T MOVE WITHOUT SLIPPING. I HAD TO ADJUST MY WHOLE PERFORMANCE STYLE BECAUSE OF IT. A FEW MORE SONGS IN AND THE SONG WAS ON IT'S WAY UP.. I CUT A FEW SONGS FROM THE SET BECAUSE I WANTED PEOPLE 2 EXPERIENCE STRONGER WHILE THERE WAS STILL SOME DARKNESS TO PERFORM IT IN. I'VE STRUGGLED WITH STRONGER FROM IT'S CONCEPTION. REMEMBER LAST SUMMER WHEN I CANCELED SOME TV APPEARANCES. IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO PERFORM STRONGER IN THE DAYTIME. ANYONE WHO CAME TO THE GLOW TOUR CAN UNDERSTAND WHY I WANTED PEOPLE TO SEE IT PROPERLY. IT BROKE MY HEART THAT I COULDN'T GIVE THESE FANS STRONGER IN IT'S GREATEST FORM... BY THE TIME I GOT TO STRONGER IT WAS DAYTIME AND IT BROKE MY HEART. I'M SORRY TO EVERYONE THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE ABILITY 2 GIVE THE PERFORMANCE I WANTED TO. I'M SORRY... SOMETIMES I GO 2, 3 DAYS W/O SLEEP WORKING ON MY PERFORMANCE... I HAVE TO ICE MY KNEES AFTER EVERY SHOW AND THEY HURT WHEN I WALK THROUGH THE AIRPORT... HAVING AN EXPENSIVE STAGE CUTS MY PAYDAY IN HALF... CALL ME WHAT YOU WANT BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL!!!

There were great performances long before all this modern technology.

Who am I?

Kanye West Flashing lights

Okay, so remember when I posted the "Flashing Lights" video and said it was "part I" of a three part video, I guess this is what I was talking about.

To clarify, Kanye said he did two version of the video, didn't like either of them, and then did the joint with Spike Jonze and loved it. He never officially released the other videos cause he didn't like em.

Anyway,



I like the chick in this video.

Flashing Lights Video

Wow. This video is kinda crazy. I gotta give it up to Kanye West or who ever came up with the concept for this shit. It kind of starts off slow but builds up real nicely. I'm amazed at how racy some of the shots are; the girl wearing very revealing clothing, Kanye West getting stabbed with a shovel, even simple stuff like lighting a grenade. The one problem I have with this video is it doesn't seem to follow the lyrics at all. It's really hard to listen to the song and enjoy the visuals at the same time-maybe I'm wrong though.


Enough talking, here it is:



Edit: I heard there are 3 parts to this video...very nice to hear that. Was wondering why it cut out so early. I think 106 and Park is going to premier the next part tomorrow.

Kanye West to Perform @ Grammy Awards

Kanye West has been tapped to perform at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, the Recording Academy announced Friday (February 8).

According to reports, the Chicago rapper, who leads this year's pack with eight nominations, has been in rehearsals performing his hit "Stronger" from his recent album, Graduation, along with "Hey Mama" from his sophomore effort, Late Registration.

It's widely believed that West will honor his mother, the late Donda West, with his Grammy performance. On November 10, Donda died of a heart attack related to pre-existing health conditions and complications from plastic surgery.

Kanye performed the same two songs overseas during his Glow in the Dark Tour as a tribute to his mother. During a stop in Paris a week after his mother's death, however, West was visibly shaken and couldn't finish "Hey Mama." He cut the song short after being unable to continue and ended the show with "Stronger."

^^^Courtesy of MTV.com, Thanks!

I hope that Kanye at least wins the album of the year award. Not only does he deserve it but we might be in for quiet the backstage performance if he doesn't win.

Kanye @ BET hip hop awards (performance)

Overall the BET Hip Hop awards were pretty 'Ghetto' (I use this term with the utmost respect) it was nice to see Kanye West bring a little 'Glam' to the night. Can't hate on this man, he's stepped his game, sold millions of records in a few weeks, and now he's just enjoying it.



see everyone get up off their seats?

over and out,

Kanye West @ MSG last night (special guest)

Maroon 5 was headlining MSG last night and look who showed up,

Kanye West's BLOG sux!

You know blogs are popping when a celebrity like Kanye West has one! What does the self proclaimed "Louis Vuitton Don" have to say....not much of anything. The blog is nothing more than random interests that West feels he needs to share. I would expect a little more from a guy that just sold almost 1 million records in a week, a guy that has performed all over the world, a guy that has 6 grammy's under his belt. Instead the site is comparable to my own blog. There are a lot of random posts that feature youtube videos, really nothing with any substance. I'm also a bit skeptical about whether or not West actually updates the blog. He posted over 5 times in one day(9/29), that's more than I have time to do on a busy day(I posted 6 times on the 29th).

Basically I just wanted to put Kanye on blast for having such a weak blog. KANYE if you're reading and you want help expanding your blog into something legit, it's not hard to reach me brotha, HAHA!

look forward to hearing from you,

Kanye West @ the VMA's

I don't want to get into this too much because there's better things I can be talking about instead of Kanye, but I still feel it needs to be addressed. Basically, Kanye was a little pissed that he didn't get ANY awards last night after being nominated in 5 categories. He performed, his albums coming out tommorow(9/11), he's been out in vegas promoting and the release date is one of the biggest in music history.

With all do respect to MTV, what the fuck were they thinking? Kanye is a very sensitive artist when it comes to awards, as most rappers are(probably everyone aswell). We all remember the grammy's and last years European VMAs(stormed stage). My question is, why would MTV mess around with Kanye? Why would they ask him to perform and nominate him FIVE TIMES just to send him home empty handed. I almost consider that to be disrespectful, they're using the man to boost ratings-the least they could do is give him a moon man.

If you look at everyone else that was nominated more than once(JT, Beyonce, Fall out Boy, Rhianna,etc), they all won atleast once! HAHA, everyone found away to go home a winner, except Kanye(even Gym Class Heroes). I don't blame Kanye for saying he's done with MTV, it looked like he was working his ass off to bring some energy to the show, the least they could do is REWARD him for that.

anyway, go cop Kanye's Album, "Graduation" tommorow on September 11th.

No more Kanye articles,
