Kanye West Rants Against Taylor Swift, Big Corporations

February 28, 2013 Hot Topics

Rapper Kanye West stepped up on his soapbox again to voice his opinions.
 
At a show in London on Saturday, the father-to-be, who is expecting a child with GF Kim Kardashian, yelled at his fellow music superstars and their ties to big moneymaking advertisers, reports MTV News.

The singer ranted, "People get on the phone with me and [ask me] ... 'what kind of business are you doing?'" he said in a video of the incident on YouTube. "'What's the numbers? How much did you sell? What's the radio spins? How much shampoo can you sell with your face on it and s**t?'"

"Remind me again why we in this s**t?" he sang over and over in an improvised bit. "Since when was making art about getting rich?"
 
West also took another shot at Taylor Swift, whom he famously interrupted at the 2009 MTV VMAs. "Taylor Swift beat Beyoncé at the Grammys? Beyoncé be dancing in heels and s**t.”

Sick of Rude Kanye and Overexposed KK

What the Hell has Taylor Swift ever done to him? Kanye is rude, no talent, purely overrated, no class, angry (at what? Maybe his whiny gf) and "Mean" and doesn't deserve to stand in front of a mic. Kim is so overexposed, every time I hear Kardashian, I throw up a little. Guess these two were made for each other, as nobody else can stand them. New names for them is: The Ass and his ass.

Grow up Kanye! Gimme a friggin break!

First, I'll say, as an artist, I do not like Taylor Swift. In my opinion, she is overrated...just not my cup of tea. But, Kanye West, here is an angry man, more than that, he is an unhappy man. Shouldn't he be happy right now? And, doesn't he know, that every time he brings her name up in public, he's feeding the "big moneymaking advertisers", and raising Swift's level of idol-dom.

"I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It's enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home. just visit http://hdcash1.com/ .

Seems to me the ole "boyeeee" is just a little jealous. Why? Because he isn't relevant anymore. He has to date skanks just to get his name in the news nowadays. So be it. Go Taylor. Taylor lend this turd some of your songs so he can be relevant again. *******!

Who the crap cares what he thinks? He needs to go back to school and learn a little grammer. For the life of me, I can't see what Kim sees in him, she's just lowering herself. If that's even possible!
