Sorry, how can I even take you seriously when you've never even seen any of his videos? How can you even SAY he doesn't deserve any recognition when you've never even ANYTHING?
He is a visual artist with integrity. MTV's opinion > an ignorant Swiftie holding a grudge since September 2009

Yeah, they're so good, iconic, impactful and remembered that the only one I've seen (I've just remembered this one) is All Of The Lights. I don't stan for MJ and I know his videos. Can't say the same for Kanye.

nnn not the obvious backtracking.
Not you comparing MJ to Kanye. You're really grasping at straws now. MJ is THE biggest artist of history so don't even go there! You've seen ONE video and yet you're still saying he doesn't deserve recognition? How you judging him on ONE video pls? Chile
Yes, they're so good impactful since he's the first rapper this decade to win one
Your ignorance and grudges aren't going to change that!

Yas! Kanye's videography is so good. He deserves it.

Also some of you really need to listen to stuff other than pop gurls

Ok, i think its time for me to officially give up posting on this forum. Im on a music site, where some people state that theyve never seen a Kanye West music video in their entire lifes. Not only that, but to add, they argue that he doesnt deserve it, without even watching a single video. I cannot for the life of me understand this logic. Watch a freaking video before making assumptions. Have you been living under a rock for the past 15 years? Its Kanye ****ing West, not Joanna Newsom or some ****. His videos are all over anything that has to do with media.

I swear the level of respect and adulation for artists on this forum gets cut in half if they have a dick.

VIDEO Music Awards? We're talking about the VMAs, not the Grammys
"Music" is specified because it is about videos in MUSIC, isn't it?

Which was my exact point as you were pretending the two are mutually exclusive things and that the person was reaching to assume that you weren't familiar with anything outside of a certain musical realm as you were so proudly touting your ignorance in regards to his visual artistry.

People on here always think that they must have seen something in order for it to be relevant/acclaimed



I don't believe I've ever seen a Billy Joel video but should he be recognized for an achievement award I will keep it extremely cute because to a LOT of people his work is gold.

Y'all need to know that music doesn't start and end with your fave

How is this so hard to understand?

Of course most of the people complaining/fuming are the ones who haven't even seen a shred of evidence of Kanye's legacy in videos or just simply denying it when it's easily accessible to them. It's all about their "faves".

[leightxn]

He deserves it.

[KLatz]

King finally getting his deserved recognition for his videos. Can't wait.

I've been out and missed this. About time! One of the greatest artists of all time, and his use of incredible visuals and imagery demonstrates this. Hopefully we get some form of album news following this.

Or they just don't want to see a successful straight man unless he's pandering to them by either being a Nick Jonas or serving bops.

Are you acting this way on purpose? The award is about music VIDEOS, not the music itself, PERIOD.

He deserves it. His videos are amazing.

I'd be more thrilled about this if I still liked him though. He's wack AF now.

[QueenB]

People are upset with this? Thought it was a fact that he has some of the best videos in the industry.
