  • I have defended Kanye on this album, I thought it was good for what it was. b, 21b, 21Dude shoulda lip-sanc (that a word?).b, 21Shame dude had shades on, I would have liked to see his eyes wince at that performance.

    i hate that motherfucker

  • yeah. i was grimacing during the performance. weak sounds


  • It would be funny if he didn't do the second performance after stinking up the place earlier.

  • '...there is no louis voutton i could put on, no gucci i could buy...to make my life right..'b, 21b, 21this is some stupid emo bourgeois shit

  • For all the Kanye hatt, he did give us 3 solid albums. I hope this is just a phase, but if he's jumped the shark, at least he got it right three times.

  • I don't want to jump on the hate bandwagon but i'm going to. I turned it on for two seconds and saw a bunch of background set lights and all of that stuff and remembered a bunch of interviews where he talks about how great the show is because of all that stuff.. anyways, all i thought about is how RUN, LL, KRS, etc.. could blow that show out the water with nothing but a mic. b, 21b, 21...ll on mtv unplugged specificly came to mind...

    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 f*cking hard I might break my f*cking 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 f*cking 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 f*cking 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 f*cking 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 b, 21LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 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 f*cking 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!!!

    font class="post"1b, 21b, 21I don't buy this argument...who can blame him for trying to inject some production value?b, 21You can blame him for FORGETTING the mic, but on an age where rap shows are almost universally awful, he put it on for a while...till, of course, the music tanked.b, 21b, 21Besides, LL ad Run DMC may have started out just rockin' a mic, but they weren't exactly averse to some production as they got more and more successful.

  • you all sound like the folk rockers who booed dylan when he went electric. The new style is dope.

  • his performance of this on the VMAs was pretty cool because it was a brand new song, he did it in a very subdued way, and it just seemed to be more of a raw emotional thing. b, 21b, 21This was kind of sloppy and corny. I'm not mad at the backdrops or anything, but he sounded like he hadn't heard the song in a few months and decided to do an "impromptu performance of a classique" for the crowd.

    font class="post"1b, 21b, 21I know this is the wrong place to say you like something, but I have been bumpin' the new album. b, 21b, 21I am going to avoid namedropping but I asked a friend of mine if Kanye stole his rhymebook. He said no but he was there in studio when Love Lockdown was being recorded. b, 21b, 21Roger Troutman was one of my favorite acts ever. Seeing Kanye getting his Roger on, I ain't mad. It is like when Linklater adapted a Phillip K Dick book for A Scanner Darkly. b, 21b, 21Music is not math. It doesn't have to be perfect. Music conveys emotion. Kanye provides the soundtrack to a break up.b, 21b, 21Having said that, he stunk it up last night.

  • WOW

    font class="post"1b, 21b, 21I retract my earlier statement. I kind of like the new record. I am happy Kanye has not recorded another album about how he didn't finish college. And I too love Roger. Now can someone please post an mp3 of Sylvester doing Over and Over because I am now officially obsessed with Larry Levan and that amazing track. I just watched Maestro. WOW. Hip hop owes a debt to homosexual underground new york disco.

    font class="post"1b, 21b, 21No, that's not it. It was just an amateur performance.b, 21b, 21It looked and sounded like a 14 year old in his room pretending to be a rock star, with the door closed and locked so nobody walks in on him, except he is Kanye West, and he didn't lock his door, and he is actually doing this live on television in front of millions of viewers.b, 21b, 21But maybe that's part of the "charm"?

  • pure poo. except the backdrops, those were cool.b, 21b, 21kanye is no roger, much in the way that an autotune is no vocoder.
