He said in the Rolling Stone:

"Mariah is gonna be tough to beat this year. I think a lot of people are gonna get behind Mariah because of the comeback story. Not to discredit her at all, but I think I deserve it over her, because "Gold Digger" sounds like nothing you've heard before. "Diamonds [From Sierra Leone]" doesn't sound like something you've heard before. And I stand by that statement, and I'm gonna say that to the end. And statements like that could be the very reason why she possibly could win over me. The thing that we tried to do with this album -- we weren't trying to just make good records, we were really trying to push the envelope and change music."



This immature loser is getting out of control. Somebody should tell him that Gold Digger is the worst song of last year.I really hope he returns home with empty hands.

he is beginning 2 really piss me off lately!!

What the hell is Kanye's problem? He said and I quote 'I think a lot of people are gonna get behind Mariah because of the comeback story. Not to discredit her at all, but I think I deserve it over her, because "Gold Digger" sounds like nothing you've heard before.'

Gimme a break, Golddigger sounds like something I've heard before....the song is bad, the beat is a little off and he's basically dropped from my faves since that single came out.

This is Mariah's year, end of story.

Everyday theres another news article posted that makes me hate this guy more and more.

TEOM is a 100 times better than Late Registration.

What makes him think carey will even win? Puh-lease.

Somehow I think the whole 'comments about Bush' thing might be playing a role in this....

Just for that statement, I think that the Grammy committee should ban him from winning any Grammy's this year and ban him from attending the ceremony cuz he's acting like a moron.... he's not even that great....

ROFLMAO.

I love how Kanye whines about everything, he actually reminds me of someone I know.

How can it sound like something you've never heard before when he uses song samples from other artists for his songs?

Seriously, I hope he doesn't win the Grammy, he doesn't deserve it. He only cares about winning awards. Go away Kayne, seriously. Come back down to reality with the rest of us.

Kanye knows how to get under peoples skin. I don't really take anything he says seriously asnymore. I think they are all publicity ploys if you ask me

I LOVE Kanyes music but Im starting to HATE HIS EGO!!!

Watch he win like one award and album of the year go to U2 or something. (Mariah will not get it...big selling albums only get nominated.)

Ugh. I really hope he gets shut out in every category this year. Though he did have a point, before "Gold Digger" there wasn't a song that seriously made me want to put a gun to my head as much as that one did. CONGRATS KANYE!

He's so stupid.

Well, he deserves it more then Mariah. Not like her stuff is anything amazing or new.

Shes not just the biggest seller shes the stronger condender in almost all the categories shes nom

you said it Charmbracelet!

I can't stand this idiot!!

His stuff isn't either, really, I actually think neither of them deserve it.

Go Gwen! =X

DUMBASS is starting to get annoying. 2005 was Mariah Carey's year. There is nothing he can do about it at this point, and I would not say his songs were in the least bit unique.

True...but Grammy's hardly nominate stuff that really should get it. I mean, Hollaback Girl? WTF? Even I think it's not award worthy.
