Always issues with Kanye West
Apparently he’s vowed to never return to MTV, after failing to get a single award at Sept. 9’s VMAs. He was nominated for 5 awards, but again, failed to get video of the year.
Last year, he had a meltdown, saying the VMA loses it’s credibility for not giving them the award. And last week he did it again backstage, shouting how they should give him a chance. It was a very troubling scene.
I’d share it, but yeah, it’s troubling.
“Give a black man a chance. I’m trying hard, man.”
Well, it’s especially disturbing for me because I like his music. But as always, his ego is huge, bigger than his body, bigger than his music career. It’s hard to get inside his head. I do think he’s great (I’ll leave my extra biased comments out for now), but the fact that he can’t be mature about this lowers the way I see him.
And he even made a comment against pop music. What’s up with that Kanye? I want to say I expect more from you, but I’ve got nothing to go on.

I see. He didn’t need to self pity himself by saying “Give a black man a chance. I’m trying hard, man.” If he wants to win that bad, then he should go and make his own awards night and give himself all the awards he want. I was thinking of trying to listen to his music because of good feedbacks from other people but if after reading this news, I think I’ll stick with my current playlist. XD

Haha yeah his music is good, and I’m talking about the music. But you’ll definitely notice his ego in the lyrics. Still might be worth a try for you though
Thanks for the comment.
