I just saw him interviewed on the Today show and was appalled. He simply could not apologize for his nasty comments about George Bush and Taylor Swift.

I think Kanye West exactly what President Obama called him, a jackass.

Pretty bad when the president of the nation calls you a jackass......

I think Taylor should have humilliated him right after he pulled his little stunt about Beyonce... Oh that would have been fun.

A fair amount of great artists seemed to be idiots in one way or other. It seems like I read somewhere Caravaggio killed a guy and looking it up yeah he did kill a guy in a brawl.

Not that Kanye West is in anyway comparable to Caravaggio, West is a musician rather than a painter and not even exactly my kind of music, but I was just meaning an example of artists one may like despite their flaws.

Is this what you are talking about?

Here are a few pull quotes from Kanye West’s ridiculous Details interview:

" Put this in the magazine: There’s nothing more to be said about music. I’m the f#cking end-all, be-all of music. I know what I’m doing. I did 808s in three weeks. I got it. It’s on cruise control. . . . Man, we talked about music for God knows how long! Now let’s talk about how my ****ing sweater didn’t come back right from Korea. That’s what’s interesting me…When you look back at these four and a half years, who’s the icon at the end of the day? Who broke down color barriers? What other black guy would a white person use as a fashion reference?”

I can't abide this Kanye jerk at all. And really enjoy when SouthPark makes fun of him being a "fish stick."

However, you can say this about him: How many so-called "artists" have incurred the wrath of two Presidents at one time besides this fool Kanye? Bush and Obama don't like him and have said so on tape. Good grief...if that doesn't tell you what a loser this fool is then nothing will.

He's NO" icon." He didn't "break down color barriers..." Oh, puh-lease...what an arrogant, egotistical nutjob he is.

He is a first class loser. I don't think I ever despised a musician (or whatever he is) any more than this idiot, loser...and he is also ugly !!

I think he's done apologizing about the Taylor Swift thing. How many more times does he need to do it? She's a millionaire, I'm sure she'll get over the fact that someone was rude to her on national television. if that's the worst thing that ever happens to her then she'll have a wonderful life.

I don't think he should apologize for his comments about Bush. I don't think anyone should ever apologize for expressing their true feelings. Perhaps he should apologize for where he expressed himself, since that's not the reason he was there, but if that's really what he felt then why is that wrong?
