Kanye West: “Artists Are Too Scared To Stand Up For Something”

Published: Thursday 24th Dec 2009 by Trent

Controversial MC Kanye West returned to the US stage on Tuesday evening. The rapper alluded to his infamous MTV Awards moment by slamming his industry counterparts for “being to scared to stand up for something” because they are “afraid to lose their record deals”. West also brought out his girlfriend, Amber Rose, to the stage to thank her for standing by him during the recent months.

Wow! This is certainly going to have many his fans and critics buzzing. West has always been one to encourage public dissent with his actions but there is no denying his talent as a rapper after hearing this spit those lines. Without a doubt, he is one of the best in the game today.

Sidebar: I bet the Illuminati theorists are going crazy after his “I sold my soul to the devil” statements This is the best Christmas present that he could have given them.

Thoughts?

    Kanye need to get himself together I love him as a musician and an artist but he just does TOO MUCH.. He claims to hate the media and the attention they “TRY” and give him but yet still he does all this EXTRA s*** that bring attention to himself..Its like the minute ppl actually stop talking about him he then starts to act a COMPLETE fool.. He must live for the attention because anyone who honestly doesnt want it would stay the hell away from it, but Kanye just beggs for that ish…

    I like Kanye because hes not afraid to speak his mind, what he did to Taylor was rude but he had a point if Beyonce’s video won VMA video of the year then does it make sense she lost best female video?? c’mon think about it…

    I think Kanye got the word Passionate mixed up with the word Arrogant.

  7. lies December 24, 2009

    I’m not christian and I take his words at face value. he said, “if they take everything i dont care” (the men in charge) “artist are scared they will lose everything if they stand up for themselves” (against the men in charge. Then he said “I sold my soul to the devil” (he may just mean the men in charge or the actual devil. Either way , he said it. None of the “Conspiracy theorist” as you call them made him say it. So why be angry at them. Maybe we need to take a second & think. Hmm what is really going behind close doors. He is a broken man & you all wonder why? Maybe he is trying to tell you & your not listening. Like Poor Pac.

    @more truth,

    I was just saying the same thing! I agree with Kanye on some parts on what he is saying BUT what he did at MTV awards for Beyonce was SO not necessary. “Single Ladies” won for Video Of The Year anyway, and Beyonce gets A LOT of praise for what she does(even when it’s pure garbage).

    If he stood up for an artist like Amerie or Keyshia Cole then i would understand because they are very UNDERRATED in the mainstream world but not Bey…. I mean the chick got 10 Grammy nominations! SL was not that serious and it won SO many other awards this year so —>

    Christ I’d all but forgiven the guy for having a big stupidass mouth and he’s doing it again. Stand up for what? For him talking over someone when they got an award? You did something when your drunk, own up and shut up. Man this guy annoys me.

    he acts like he’s 17!
