No one cares about Kanye Kardashian's music any more. His label knows, that is why they didn't even bother printing out physical copies. Accept it, He's commercially over  |
YEEZUS is still certified platinum in the US lmao. No hits? Runaway, Power, All Of The Lights, In Paris, Black Skinhead, Mercy, Don't Like, Father Stretch My Hands etc all hits this decade lmao you probably only listen to pop music. No one cares? Lmao ok keep thinking about that. 4Million people streamed his fashion show in February where he was premiering the new album on a Thursday afternoon at 4PM...still went #1 a month later despite not being for sale but ok lmao keep thinking no one cares about his music lmao. You stan Gaga, literally no one cares about her or anticipating new music besides stans. YEEZUS was a huge rollout? The only promo he did was SNL and the VMAs lmao..."commercials over" yet ok...YEEZUS is more influential/critically acclaimed than any Gaga record but ok...lmao

Because what he did to Taylor was the crappiest thing he's done. Of course he got the most backlash for it, it was incredibly cruel. I don't know why you're acting like him quickly calling someone out on TV (when they weren't present) was worse than him ruining a young artist's first VMA winning moment and telling them on stage that they shouldn't have won. And I don't know why you keep pulling the race card? No matter what color, gender or whatever Taylor was, he would have gotten just as much backlash. He deserved to get backlash for it regardless of the color of anyone's skin.
The meltdowns weren't related to racism at all. Again, the Beck thing was him literally about to repeat what he did in 2009, but didnt go through with it in the moment because "he has a family to protect now". He has had plenty of meltdowns on and offline the past 12 years, and said plenty of things on and offline that turn people off from him. I don't know why you're fighting that so hard and having a hard time understanding why he has the reputation he has?
Why do you keep saying "Taylor's team said Taylor didn't know about the song"? The more times you say it, it won't make it true. They literally never said that, and I gave you the receipt for what they did say....you're just choosing to believe your own lie.
I really don't get why you're seeing nothing but race in all of this when it's literally not a factor at all. Taylor got plenty of backlash after the Kim snapchats, which was the one time it did come off as messy on her end.
And no, Taylor didn't dedicate her speech to him. If you want a timeline of their whole situation read here:
http://www.complex.com/music/2016/07...lyric-timeline |
Ok what he did to Taylor at the VMAs was "crappy" yet he constantly apologized for it. Everyone moved on from it and so did the media. All the "meltdowns" you mentioned didn't have the same impact because the media didn't care, everyone moved on from that incident and so did Kanye, but he was always linked to it. Taylor linked Kanye back to her all the time...2010, TAYLOR releases "Innocent" a song written about Kanye, later performs at the VMAs with the incident playing over her...that same night Kanye moved on and performed Runaway..2015 they reunite at the Grammys, have dinner where they discussed Famous...2015 VMAs Taylor presents Kanye with the Vangurd A Award where she mentions the incident again...Fast forward to 2016 Kanye releases Famous, name drops Taylor, Taylor and her team states they didn't hear the song despite knowing of the lyrics, and then in April Taylor states to VOGUE she "didn't want to add to it" despite her being the one to twist the story when Kanye wanted to remain friends with her and was willing to change the lyrics but Taylor found them to be cool and provactive.
Kanye meltdowns at award shows? All his meltdowns is to why his art doesn't get nominated, and why black artists never win despite white artists culturally appropriating. You're mentioning the Beck incident...the same incident that Taylor encouaged that Kanye should've went and interrupted him. I understand the reputation he has...he's always been outspoken...Kanye wanted to make amends with Taylor and keep their friendship after Famous, yet Taylor seen the opportunity to keep Kanye's reputation as the "angry black man".
It has to do with race because like I said ITS PART OF THE HISTORY WHERE WHITE WOMEN FALSLY ACCUSE BLACK MEN and her WHITE PRIVILIGE that y'all fail to acknowledge. I don't think you read the thread I linked which included this article: http://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertai...apchat-haters/.
Her speech wasn't about Kanye? She responded to the Famous lyrics that she agreed to, just to protect her image and be seen as the face of Feminism (white feminism*).
I'm not going back and forth with you...y'all fail to acknowledge that Taylor is the one wrong in the Kanye and Taylor 2016 feud..she's the one who got exposed, and y'all fail to acknowledge how manipulative she is and how she controls the media and fail to acknowledge her white privilege.

lol whatever, some people aren't going to get it. Not sure why that came up in the first place when it was unrelated.
OT, hopefully Calvin and Taylor can be cordial in the future, like Taylor became with Joe after a rough breakup.

On topic: Glad Calvin feels like a complete idiot for melting down on social media for everyone too see while Taylor didn't even bother to log in to her account.

Kanye can't pay rent with grammys tho 
I don't hate Katy, btw. I just dislike her because she severely lacks any musical talent.

Wow, all those forgotten hit singles, and it still wasn't enough to warrant a commercial release. Even his label knew there was no point in investing money on printing/distributing albums.
Yes, you hit the nail right on the head, 4 million people tuned in to see his FASHION show. No one was there to hear his brand new nonsensical, nausea inducing music he calls 'art'. Check out Spotify, you won't find a single song by Kim's husband on the USA or Global charts
Yes, Yeesuz had a big roll out. Didn't he project New Slaves into every building/museum Kim could pay her way on? You probably just forgot like every one else, because like I said, no one cares.

Taylor didn't "try" to dig katy six feet under, she DID. Check the success, or lack thereof, of Kate's last single. No one cares.
She also didn't try to ruin Kanyes career, she succeeded. 2009 was the end of Kanyes reign. None of his albums went platinum after that. No top ten single on billboard after that. It even has to sell over priced t-shirts to make a living nowadays. Poor it, Ended by an emotional white girl with a guitar.
And what does all this make her? It makes her a SAINT. You better recognize.  |
this tea 
tbh we should just embrace her rough side. She's not gonna let anyone step on her toes and I fully support her hitting them back harder

Looks more to me like he's defending himself because he knows he made a full of himself, nothing more. He's not apologizing for anything. I've got nothing specifically against him but it has been pretty documented how he's always pretty bitter after each break-up. Having said that, I can see why he reacted the way he did.
I honeslty don't see them as being on "cordial terms" in a near future, I mean, among his exes, he's the one that dragged her the most on social medias and he didn't even assume the IG comments saying she "controlled the medias".
Again, he wanted to defend himself and that's understandable, but in the end he looked bitter af.
Her team should be careful tho because, they tried to throw bad press to Calvin and now, there are painting Tom as the villain, the "fame-hungry". I doubt Tom will react like that (even tho there's already a PR war from each team) and he's just too mature for that kind of silly reactions but still.
