Ye Says "Fuck the Grammy's"
February 15th, 2007 | Author: J-23 Live from Las Vegas! One of the better show line ups during this packed Magic/All Star week in Las Vegas was Lupe Fiasco, Gnarls Barkley and Kanye West, oh and Spankrock. Here is how it went down" The show was at the Aladdan Theatre, which is a real big place with two levels of stadium seating...and shit was empty. Probably helped by the astronomical ticket prices ($155). The day before the show we were told we may not get be able to get free tickets, two hours before the show we had more than we could get rid of. The show was being broadcast to China for Chinese New Year, so it was a pretty big production with a lot of lights and pyro-technics and shit. Spankrock kicked things off and were awful from what I saw, I don't like their stuff as it is and it didn't translate any better live. It only got worse though, cause Power 106 DJ Felli Fel was hosting and his stand up routine was straight up death. Dude is good on the air, but man was he bad here. He introduces "DJ" Girltalk, and it wasn't pretty. I use the term DJ very lightly as it was nothing more than two dudes standing motionless while thier laptop played music. It ranged from shitty mash ups using various female vocals and hyphy emcees. After a long break and more bad material from Felli, Lupe hit the stage and did a quick 5 song routine with Gotcha, Sunshine, The Instrumental, American Terrorist, Kick Push and Daydreamin. For those who haven't seen Lupe live, its kind of a boring show for the most part. Lupe really gets into his own little world on stage, skipping around in circles and whatnot, he really doesn't connect with the audience at all and he just doesn't have great stage presence. On the bright side of things, he does every bit as incredible as he does on record, there is basically no difference. Few can do that. After another long, excruciated break full of Felli Fel and Girltalk, Gnarls hit the stage and performed a nice but short set (maybe 25 minutes). For those who haven't seen him, Cee-Lo has got some serious star power and really projects it on stage. The man is a rock star. Its kinda surreal to see it though, if someone woulda told me this is what Cee Lo would become the first time I saw the Cell Therapy video, I wouldn't have believed them. Now that is evolution. This time the break was even longer, I couldn't even stick around to see how bad it was and hit the lobby for a bit. The orchestra was out in full effect and Ye kicked it off with Diamonds From Sierra Lione to a crazy reaction. Lupe and Gnarls may have been much bigger this year, but Kanye was easily the star of the night, the place filled up right before his set. The highlight of the night was Kanye asking why they crowd wasn't singing "the song." He was referring to the Dixie Chicks Grammy winning song of the year, and being very sarcastic. He raved that no one has heard the song and Gnarls' Crazy was easily the biggest song of the year. He said he was sitting beside Cee-Lo was at the show and told him he'd bum rush the stage on his behalf. He concluded by pointing out the Grammys are bullshit and he doesn't care if he ever wins another one and a final "fuck the Grammys." The crowd loved it and went wild. The rest of his set was great and easily the highlight of the night, he pulled out the usual stops (Through The Wire, Spaceshit, Get'em High, Gold Digger, Jesus Walks, Heard'em Say, etc). Very good stuff from Mr. West and his crew. source:

even thought the grammy's have no substance anymore. it like they just give them to people. 5 years ago. if someone got a grammy you knew they deserved it but
this nigga is the biggest baby. for someone whose music isnt 100% creative he feels he deserves alot. i give more credit to Neptunes even though their beats arent that good right now atleast they are 100% original |

The dude is bad cause he didin't win anything. The same bitch said on an award (I don't remeber which one), that people are losers or something like that because people didn't win for the best video. A lil bit more and he was starting to cry because of that
Fuck Kanye
