Kanye rants about Lady Gaga, accuses Grammy's of corruption
Quote:
"[Gaga] wasn’t nominated for Best New Artist, right?" he begins. "But they wanted her to perform at the show; they wanted her to open. So the Grammys secretly changed something about the nominations in order to nominate her, in order for her to perform in the show.
Quote:
Basically, the Grammys were lax on the timeline of The Fame and its release date, and made it a priority to honor Gaga's work in spite of its release date and that lone nomination at the 51st Grammys that kept her from a Best New Artist nomination in 2010. To sum up West's commentary: The Grammys made an exception for Gaga based on her rise in popularity.
Why's he SO obsessed with the Grammys though? You can tell how insecure he truly is behind his facade of "musical genius, most influential artist." If he was so sure of himself he wouldn't be so hung up on a piece of metal
