CBS: “West apparently was so disappointed at not winning for Best Video that he crashed the stage Thursday in Copenhagen when the award was being presented to Justice and Simian for ‘We Are Your Friends.’ In a tirade riddled with expletives, West said he should have won the prize for his video ‘Touch The Sky,’ because it ‘cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it. I was jumping across canyons.’”

Kanye West is both a racist and a hack.
Any true hip hop fan knew from the start that Kanye couldn’t rap for a damn. Yes, he makes some hot beats, one of the best producers around, but he is a horrible emcee.
the Justice and Simian video was awesome and funny. The Kanye West video was cliche and boring.
Hip hop braggadocio can be fun and exhilarating, but when West does it he comes across as a petulant, insecure, whiny, spoiled brat. That’s his greatest contribution to hip hop culture. Bravo, Kanye!
