So ‘Ye Tudda interrupted MTV’s flagship awards program to say that the ‘Single Ladies’ video was one of the “best of all time”. KanYe ain’t neva lie. Especially not after killing a bottle of that brown ‘truth juice’.
This latest KanYe West award ceremony outburst has the TWittter streets all aflutter tweeting. The truth is that KanYe’s statement was on point. BeYonce’s ‘Single Ladies’ video is well designed and choreographed to the tee oh pee. I’m sure the Taylor Swift video has good visuals too, but BeYonce is a fux’n specimen. KanYe and his muse lady Amber Rose were reportedly escorted from the building after his outburst. Who knows? And at the end of the day who the fux cares?
What I did want to talk about was the bottle of brown truth juice that KanYe is advertising on the VMA red carpet. Since ‘Ye Tudda is the Louis Vuitton Don and since Louis Vuitton is the owner of Moet (mo-way) and Hennessy I think it would be naive of us not to think that there wasn’t a corporate placement for this shot. I mean, a man of KanYe’s tastes and means would surely prefer Martell to Hennessy, no?
I was chopping it up on FaceBook with a fellow Commissioner, Jamal7Mile, when the homey pointed me to his weblog site – You Damned Right I Farted!!. By the way, J7M that is the funniest name of all time for a website, kudos. The homey’s latest drop talks about the state imposed timeout he is starting later on today. That is some pill to swallow when you know you are gonna be on lockdown. Your mind goes over all the shit that you could have done to not be in the position you are facing.
I think Jamal7Mile is already on the right path to getting his mind right in the long run. I wish I could say tha same for myself. I am an alcoholic. This doesn’t mean that I get drunk all the time because I don’t, but it does mean that I will seek out opportunities to be intoxicated and make decisions based on those opportunities that affect me long after I have placed down the bottle. I’ve dealt with counseling and rehab before for drugs and drinking. You learn that addiction is a lifelong process. You also learn that you have the power within yourself to overcome your demons.
I wish Jamal7Mile the best on his journey. He can definitely overcome this. No matter where you go brother there YOU are. Keep believing in yourself and keep your head to the sky. Peace.
Dp, whaddup?!

Cut&paste that page. It tells a “nice” story about that booze.
J7 & I talked briefly about it saturday, but my story is the other end of the spectrum. You know, either jail or death.
Shout out to the excellent staff of Kaiser Permanente!!
1 year, 6 months & 13 days right now.
Hell chea it’s life long. I still want a drink right now. Alcohol is poison, literally. Ate me up, but God is far too good to let me down.
If nobody else peeps that link, DP, I’d be honored I you did. You’ll understand why, trust.
Oh, my bad. No need to cut & paste, ha!
Is it me or did the whole Kanye-Taylor Swift-Beyonce-Taylor Swift incident seemed scripted and staged? If not, Beyonce got crazy props for year end award acceptance speech.
More publicity for West-Swift and Beyonce. Everybody wins.
Now reading Jamal7Mile’s blog . . . yeah, love the name.
Nice picture, the body is the business . . . literally.
Umm, it’s not scripted at all. If it was, then Kanye was a fool for going along. Honestly, people stopped caring about Kanye jumping on stage and insisting that he should have won whatever award, but this time he jumped up and messed with the top selling artist in America right now (yes, that’s what Taylor Swift is). Like, way to give people who’re on the fence about you reason to hate you. I need to see how Faux News touches this.
Good luck Jamal!
For anyone to watch MTV expecting the best videos to actually win awards…they would be totally misguided.
Still doesn’t give Ye the right to bumrush the mic. Besides, ODB did it better “WU TANG IS FOR THE CHILDREN!!!!”
I hate to go in on ‘Ye, (ll), but that nigra would not done that to any member of Slaughterhouse or Wu, or Em for that matter…and he def would not do that to a sista. This dude continues to be on some bitchmade tough guy shit over some trophies for white acceptance. Don’t stop my movie just because you’re not starring. We all know Henny is the truth serum for black and thats why I opts out, B! I don’t need a case or a eye jammy. Strictly Tekwilla, for realla.
GOT DAMN!!! That damn Amber Rose is QUITE the specimen in that full length snake-skin joint. If she was in the garden, and told me to bite the apple….well, I’ll say this, I don’t think a damned piece of fruit would be what got bit. Just sayin….
Its the Liks baby Its the Liks….long live yak..
I fully support Kanye and the comedy he provides me. I don’t know who the hell Taylor Swift is and don’t care. However, we know Kanye and what he will do, but they still have him at everything. I know some cats that when I saw their name on the sign up list at open mics I would leave, cause I knew some shit was going down. So either a) He’s important enough to spaz and still get invited back or b) They keep thinking he’ll be cool the next time. Either way it’s a dummy move on the part of those who invite him.
Kanye’s mad @ Drake for taking his shine.
So, he saw an opportunity to upsatge somebody large enough to get the world clamoring, & took it.
It worked, but that was some douche nozzle shit to do. Although, it’s going to work out for her as well, because he wasn’t the only widely famous person involved. AND she got Beyonce to personally step aside & give her extra fact time. Kanye might have helped her out in a major way.
Dudes in high school that acted like that got beat up though, Just off of the strength of too much femininity. That was the hater move of 2009…
Kanye is a hypoholic. He does not want to sell records, just wants attention. That is why he would be with a woman that looks like an illegal alien (from another galaxy), to get attention, his haircut to get attention, his outbursts to get attention. He is a short, squeaky voiced, insecure whiner and momma’s boy. We had them in Brooklyn when I was growing up. They would be flunkies and errand boys for the more thuggish, just got out of jail kids. They were useful as gophers but always brought heat on us by doing dumb shit or starting shit with cats that common sense and logic dictated that you avoid at all costs. Even if they got an ass whipping they were happy because they got attention and their names were mentioned. He will wear out his welcome and before long be considered a clown and be kicked to the curb like last years fashion mistakes. And who asked him what the best video was? Who or what gives him the right to second guess the professional lackeys that pick the award winners anywho? Ernie
^ sorry dunny, but kanye music is too good to just be kicked to the curb. This def an episode of when keeping it real goes wrong, but guarantee all sorts of people will banging his next album. he’s a genius, but you can hate if you want.
Ernie is on point. Kanye is out of his mind. His music is garbage, or at the very least, is not hip-hop (i.e. Raekwon or Sean P). It’s a shame b/c I agree w/ you jredmond, he was a genius, just only a genius at making beats.
teh gay fish….told y’all this nukka sweet as a fruit roll up((II)) and I aint have to see that them African dudes was the main focus of Love Lockdown video-nikka in the closet thats why his love is locked down….lolz
and he aint smashing Ambers cakes like half my niggas in N.Philly already been did(Delilahs Den anyone) he got that bitch around as a muse and to dress her in artistic outfits….trust me cats act alot cooler when they get puzzzy.
neither here nor there, I mean Elton John got some good music too, but even he aint half as flamboyant as Yeezy lolz…….lemme stop hahahahahahah
In order to do what he did and make it Hip Hop or at the very least excusable or faintly cool it would have had to be done by a Flavor Flav, Biz Markee or the late Ol Dirty Bastard.
Then it would have been a looney tune moment and added to the flavor of the event. Instead it looked like a whiny, ego tripping, bitch ass rant.
And if you take away his budget, electronic gimmickry, a zillion dollar video team and all the loot, tricks, engineering stunts and the massive publicity machine that bankrolls him how much real talent is left?
The correct answer is we will never know. Ernie
YEAH I THINK YE CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE IT AS A PRODUCER IF NOTHING ELSE, HE JUST TO TALENTED, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN WASHED UP BY NOW IF HE WASN’T, BUT HE BACK UP HIS ANTICS WITH HIS MUSIC AND STAGE SHOWS. AND BELIEVE ME U DONT HAVE TO LIKE YE TO BE ENTERTAINED AT ONE OF HIS SHOWS. THE THING ABOUT IT IS HE COULD STILL SELL WITHOUT ALL THE CORNY BULLSHIT GIMMICKS AND OUTBURST.
“…trust me cats act alot cooler when they get puzzzy.”
For real, if dude was getting it in with Amber, like any heterosexual dude would be, he wouldn’t have time to scare little girls. He’d be too busy trying to see what other kinda tricks Amber could do with all these pieces she has…..
Even Obama called Kanghey a JACKASS. That is some cold shit when the president of the US is a Black Man and calls him out. I guess Kanghey will say “Obama don’t care about corny ass, whiny rappers and rapperettes”. LOL Ernie
you dudes are full of hate if you don’t think Ye’ is dope on the mic. This ‘it is only hip hop if’ mindset is basura. Kanye has so many quotables its silly. I ain’t saying he’s not a jackass, cuz he is, but to disregard his music beacaue of his personal flaws is gay.
A man who tries to bully a 17 year old girl is wack as hell.
A person who defends that man is wack.
A person who defends that persons outbursts is wack.
A person who loves that man more than that man apparently love himself is a stan.
As far as the “it is only Hip Hop if” remark, I was documenting Hip Hop from it’s birth up to and including Hip Hop from Japan, Brazil and everywhere in between from the start until this year, all 5 elements.
No one can say what Hip Hop is, but we sure as hell can define what is not Hip Hop or what is a bitch ass action coming from a psychotic need for attention. Ernie
and Mr/Mrs/Ms. Jredmond
please dont confuse stanhood with manhood………just saying………….
no shit dude…your faux intellect on hip does nothing for me. I accept he is a fucking pansy and such, but his music still bangs. Freddie Mercury was a god awful queer, but queen still fucking rocks.
Where the fuck do you get off insinuating that I was defending his actions, when I was clearly talking about music.
p.s Don’t think think I haven’t read your KRS- wannabe rules on hip hop on here before, so frankly you can kick rocks old fart.
feel the love
Everyone here really needs to take a lesson on hip hop. Kanye is not hip hop but pop. Even KRS-One called him out and said “kanye’s album is great, but its not hip hop.”
