Kanye Addresses Bonnaroo Fuckfestival

In typical Kanye fashion, he explains why exactly he hit the Bonnaroo festival stage 2 hours late.
I am sick of negative people who just sit around trying 2 plot my downfall… Why???? I understand if people don’t like me because I like me or if people think tight clothes look gay or people say I run my mouth to much, But this Bonnaroo thing is the worst insult I’ve ever had in my life. This is the most offended I’ve ever been… this is the maddest I ever will be. I’m typing so fucking hard I might break my fucking Mac book Air!!!!!!!! Call me any name you want…. arrogant, conceited, narcissistic, racist, metro, fag whatever you can think of…. BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN’T GIVE MY ALL! NEVER SAY I DIDN’T GIVE MY ALL! THIS SHOWS NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO BE GOOD AT SOMETHING THERE WILL BE PEOPLE THERE TO LIE ABOUT YOU AND BRING YOU DOWN! LIKE WAYNE SAYS PLEASE DON’T SHOOT ME DOWN CAUSE I’M FLYING! I’M FUCKING HURT BY THIS ONE. ALL I CARE ABOUT ARE THE FANS. JUST SAY THIS OUT LOUD IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE, “KANYE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT GIVING A GOOD PERFORMANCE.” CAN ANYONE HONESTLY SAY THAT ????????? ….
He goes on to explain (click here to read the rest) how the people from Bonnaroo were morons and didn’t plan properly and Pearl Jam left the stage an hour late, etc. As a result, his elaborately lit stage ended up going to waste because he was performing as the sun was coming up.
Yeezy probably gets too emotional, and everybody’s gonna say he sounds like a girl, but come on, you have to appreciate an artist with that much passion for what they do, particularly in Hip-Hop in 2008.

Good for Kanye. He is a true musician.

Although dood may care about fans (of course), I doubt he does what he does FOR THE FANS. That’s fucking bullshit. He does it for himself and his idealistic aesthetic of pop stardom FIRST. This guy is delusional.

ye is the man. who gives a fuck if he’s gay, whatever the case may be he’s still the best artist around.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Thats why I buy every album he puts out
dude really puts in work and he doen’t have to at all
c’mon guys this is hip hop…you don’t have to go hard
wit the vids, albums, etc…
then again…maybe thats the problem :-\

Kanye should know from a TN dweller that I have witnessed this festival since inception and that this is the blackest its been since it started, they had Chris Rock there, basically you were in a loose situation because A you was a rapper and B you were a rappin assed nigga in the midst of drunken, doped up, rock starved rednecks, you were doomed from the jump.

kanye is the best rapper still on tour today he has so much heart and cares so mich about what he does. i agree with everything he said in that article (though not the soulja boy comment) and think that he is the hardest working man in hip hop today
