  1. Run This Town…Possibly the song of the year…

    As far as Kanye’s apologize, its all water under the bridge homie…

  2. *apology

  3. ^^^^^^^^^^^ Fuck a Kanye West! Even Mr. Obama called him a jackass.

  4. (404) I hope Kanye doesn’t show up to Patrick Swayze’s funeral. I’ll let you get back to your funeral in a minute…but Michael Jackson had the best death of the year. Just sayin’

    LMAO nice one

  7. that interview was hard to watch. kan had like a 30 second pause when leno brought up his mom.

  8. Worm stole it from this picture.. http://i27.tinypic.com/2vi5gzm.jpg
    nice try at being funny, get your own ideas.

    & would people get over this? holy fuck, no one really has nothing to do with their lives but worry about this?

  9. Don’t trip Ye’.That really seemed sincere right there so I think folks should be getting over it easier

  10. damn didnt this just happen like 20 min ago? LOL I watched it. and his apology. 2o min ago.

  11. apology accepted my nigga

  12. why was kanye in the matrix tonight? i believed the apology…i hope we can stop talking about it now…taylor handled it pretty cool…n ye apologized…its over. but watch it still make the news.

    ps leno is wack..lol

  13. Wow people are acting as if Kanye killed someone, I mean, dont get me wrong what he did was extremely disrespectful, but he never directly insulted or attacked Ms Swift. Chris Brown beat a female, R. Kelly peed on an underage one, Snoop straight murdered someone, and people are making Kanye West out as some monster. I love how Lil Wayne can get on television smoking a blunt and basically openly admit to using prescription cough syrup, when half his fan base is made up of susceptible teens under the age of 18, and nobody seems to care. Everyone takes and L for this one.

  14. Kanye’s 3rd apology on Jay Leno…. Was that really an apology??? Kanye did seem a bit remorseful. Was he fake crying??? Read the text of interview here:

  15. Have you heard the “Run This Town” REMIX??? ITZ HOT!!!

    http://invazion.wordpress.com/2009/09/04/run-this-town-vs-run-this-town-remix-letzbyonest-com/

  16. GUYS CALM DOWN ITS NOT A BIG DEAL I ACCEPT THIS NIGGERS APOLOGY!!

    -Taylor Swift

  17. lmao @ “what would yo mama say???”

  18. let’s even it out and let T-Swift call Kanye her “nigga”

    word.

  19. Jay went for a low blow with that question about Ye’s mom. SMH at that one. Damn Jay.

  20. NEWSFLASH!! He did the same thing at the Euro MTV awards, accept… he was bitter cuz HE didn’t win! I’m a Kanye fan because he’s real. He has emotions he acts on and isn’t a robot like most of these artists… He apologized, let’s move onto important stuff like health care, gettin troops home, etc.

  21. Kanye is a homo. I wish people would keep booing when him or his name pop up. Forever.

    And the winner is… Kanye… BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

  22. I wish people would boo brett favre ^

  23. also, run this town sucks. rhianna is forever trying to sound like young jeezy and act like dame in videos.

  24. Thanks Brett, your description of the booing at the end was totally necessary. I couldn’t fully grasp your booing plan when you laid it out one line before.

  25. Don;t worry about Ye.
    If I were a public figure,… well I’d meltdown a lot to.

  26. they will in green bay Zak ^

    however I wish people would not only booo you but also throw excrament at you.

  27. young jeezy? Was that a typo? Nigga has to get his ears checked when Rihanna starts sounding like Jeezy, either that or go easy on the shrooms.

  28. Brett Farve sucks! but he is right about rhianna and kanye

  29. the roc is so not in the building anymore.

  30. nigga wus backstage sippin yak plannin a stunt

  31. lol. rhianna does sound like jezzy and t.i. with that “eh eh eh” bullshit on every song. id suspect her of being a dude b4 lady gaga lol.

  32. Off topic damn go go Raiders

  33. that hair cut comes with a free pair of tight pants

  34. Blueprint 3 could be one of the worst albums of all time.
    Real talk. I sat and tried to listen to it objectively. Terrible.

  35. if ya say real talk …

  36. kanye might need a camron vacation and submit ms swift some 808 beats

  37. on the house and kill his barber

  38. @One ID

    Ever think that you might need your ears checked? Just asking

  39. kanye is a moron

  40. (404) I hope Kanye doesn’t show up to Patrick Swayze’s funeral. I’ll let you get back to your funeral in a minute…but Michael Jackson had the best death of the year. Just sayin’

    LOL — I see you check out Textsfromlastnight.com

    Thats’ where worm got if from, hence the 404 area code, not the pic

  41. Im soooooooooo gayyyyyyyy

  42. ANYWHO.. HOW ABOUT MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALLL?

  43. Why is it cool for whites to disrespect the president but as soon as kanye tell the truth about Taylor swift it’s bad?

  44. just a little more sippy sippy haha…this shit is comedy. entertainment at its best. thanks Kanye.

  45. People make me sick! Kanye is a real dude. He apologized. JAY LENO was the one who brought his mom up. He didn’t use that as an excuse. (My bad…people were saying this all over Twitter, and it was mad ignorant to me)

    That’s what’s wrong wit ppl in America and the world! It’s some of the worse people who do BAD things that be the 1st ones to throw stones. Don’t let me start getting T.D Jakes on cats. LOL!

    PPL have killed, raped, lied, beaten, cheated, did terrorist acts, made dogs fight, & y’all wanna crucify Kanye having an outburst? #GTFOH

    ALRIGHT. RANT DONE. Sorry about that. LOL

    This is water under the bridge. If anything, this will boost Kanye’s sells and interest in an album for him. Knowing him, Taylor Swift will feature on the first single.

    T-SWIZZLE!

    LOL

  46. Why is it cool for whites to disrespect the president but as soon as kanye tell the truth about Taylor swift it’s bad?
    Thebravinator said this on September 14th, 2009 at 9:34 pm

    wow you comparing kanye and obama? every race disrespects every other race doesn’t matter who they are. why does this kanye – taylor shit have to be turned into some racist shit now that’s kinda sad .

    RAIDERS LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  47. ‘Dont merk me with yo internet slugs”

  48. @ Thebravinator Everybody disrespects the president just because he’s black they can’t say anything it comes wit the territory name one president that’s never been bad mouthed

  49. DAMMMMNNNNN Leno hit ‘em with his mother. That is West’s core; his music and his mom.

  50. Shaking my head at “Mike Dreams?”, what he did was dumb.

  51. ^^^
    Dumb yes but worth all this media whoring? Hell no lol
    and @ lynx765 Leno basically sonned him
    “What would your mother say” Damn hahaha

  52. @ Thebravinator: Everybody disrespects the president. What, now just because he’s black they can’t say anything? It comes with the territory, I challenge you to name one president that’s never been bad mouthed. If this country was as racially backwards as you assume then Obama would not be president, period.

  53. @Kanye West (Why is your name Kanye West?) LOL. But anyways, yeah, it was dumb, but not the END OF THE WORLD. That’s all I’m saying. There are FAR worse things than what he did and people are trying to burn him in effigy for this.

  54. hopefully all this fuckery can put ignored and laid to rest…it never was that serious.

  55. Good performance from Yeezy – and I mean on the song.

  56. That interview looked like it came from the heart but i remember my initial reaction when it happened and i was pissed, a 32 (or whatever) year old adult acting like a teenager. Taylor Swift is 17…. the fuck is wrong with ye?

  57. wow I seriously cannot believe the attention this is getting. My mom even started an argument over this shit and she doesn’t even know what music is. She was on Taylor Swifts side and it pissed me off. Kanye was totally correct in his actions. She didn’t deserve the moment, so why let her have it… instead, embarrass the fuck outta her and make her feel like a piece of shit because her type of music is rotting our nations kids… miley cyrus, jonas brothers, high school musical bullshit, and talor swift fall into the same category… and I keep seeing more bullshit artists coming out of the corporate woodwork… How about that one 13 year old adolescent who stuck up for talor swift right after the incident… I saw that motherfucker in one of those mtv music shorts they do after shows end. A no talent mother piece of shit. How does he get a deal… I will tell you… because his parents are rich as fuck most likely… If thats not the case, I’ll shit myself… Kanye, I approve. How about, just boycott mtv because it’s pretty much turning into disney or nickelodeon.

  58. I agree that Taylor may have not deserved the award and all that and I’m a big Ye fan and hope he gets through all this, but Taylor Swift DOES have actual talent. The Jonas Brothers too. IDK what to exactly say about Miley, but that’s for another day. I guess people feel like DISNEY or NICK is a bad thing now, but like 30 years ago, young stars like this would have just been in the mainstream music scene because there was no market for them (I actually liked it better like that. It allowed them to not be prejudged). [See Jackson 5, New Edition, etc].

    I never thought I’d be standing up for these artists, but the fact that you said “rotting our kids minds” was just mad crazy to me because I’d rather my kids (when I have them) listen to some positive ish like what some of these kid/teen artists make vs. Always Strapped or something. I teach an audio class of like 5th Graders and I didn’t really understand the full extent of the influence of negative music until I worked there. 11 year old girls talking about “licking lolipops” and what not.

    They have a market.
    Plus, Taylor is a country singer. Country is a dope genre that had to go threw some of the same things hip hop had to go through to get mass appeal and mainstream recognition.

    Overall, this is not an argument about the artists’ music or ages, it is really about one human being BEING aware of another human being’s feelings and what not.

    I respect opinions, cuz I too am outspoken and try and tell it like it is, but I also try and make sure I know what will be the consequences of speaking my mind. This time around, I don’t think Ye did that. Maybe he’ll know for next time.

    “Everyday is a learning experience”

  59. you know what…. enough already. is it the popular thing to hate kanye right now? i guess. but come the fuck on. this is not that big of a thing to be on headline news, fox news, msnbc, abc news, cnn.com and yahoo. REPORT ACTUAL FUCKIN NEWS PLEASE.

    now was it the wrong place to say it? i guess. but how do you win video of the year but not win female video of the year? and if you win video of the year, wouldnt that said video THEN become one of (MTV’s) best video of all time?

    and why has this become a racist topic? is it necessary for multiples websites and blogs to let “he’s just an ignorant nigger” comments slide? over this? over taylor swift?

    on hip hop sites, this one in particular, and blogs like smoking section and allhiphop, is this necessary to talk so much trash about kanye, whom has been making music that we know since at least 99? and those same “hip hop supporters” and taking up the defense of taylor swift? since when did ya’ll listen and support pop/country?

    STOP ACTING LIKE KANYE GOT ON STAGE AND LITERALLY RAPED A 19 YEAR OLD ON CAMERA. STOP ACTING LIKE SOMEONE DIED BECAUSE HE LIKES BEYONCE’S VIDEO BETTER.

    and on a final note, beyonce. whoooo hoooo, she’s everyone’s hero and oh-so classy. what happened to keeping the family together? i don’t think jay or common or cudi would just abandon people they tight with just to put themselves over as such a “higher form of a classy being”.

    all in all, THERE IS MUCH WORSE SHIT GOIN ON IN THIS COUNTRY, IN YOUR STATES, IN YOUR CITIES. AND THIS, THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE IN AMERICA WANTS TO GET INTO A VIGOROUS UPROAR ABOUT?

    …. bill maher was right. this country is full of fuckin stupid people who have no idea what to really be angry about.

  60. Uhmm.. I WAS GONNA TALK ABOUT how great this sounded live, the instruments (percussion, guitar…) and all, the fact that the ignorant people who said Rihanna used autotune for this chorus were wrong but… apparently what matters now is to hate on Kanye. Well, I was a fan, but now I dont like him anymore…. lol, fo real?

    Call Kanye whatever you want! He’s still a “whatever you want” who makes great music.

    Jay Leno was harsh with the mother question… damn! But wasn’t he right?

    LOL@: findin out he messed up when Taylor didn’t keep going XD

  61. kanye west can suck on my chode dick and choke on my hairy balls

  62. I agree Yamitsuki. There is WAY WORSE stuff going on.

    This SHOULDN’T be the biggest deal right now.

  63. Are we still making really gay comments about another person, disregarding the fact that you saying something like “Kanye west can suck on my chode dick and choke on my hairy balls” would make you gay as well?

    We are #OffThat.

    Correction: I was never #OnThat

  64. Would ya’ll have the same reaction if the winner was Mary J. blige or Keisha Cole ? I guess it’s too easy to dismiss it as “kanye being Kanye” but if was someone with a harder edge, he would’ve gotten his ass whipped !! Country music or not, this is a rapper complaining about awards – countless times, MTV no less !! There was a time where you would clown a emcee just for being in the venue !! Now it’s cool to fuck with someones shine because you feel differently. Music is bigger than BET and our Urban radio stations which is all POP, something you’re suppose to hate right ?

  65. i gotta say this is some ish now, the news is covered with this stuff, kanye apologized already get over it, she didnt deserve the award anyway, and as far as sayin awards dont mean nuffin, how is that, awards and sales are what define artists when their gone, beyonce did deserve the award and myv f***ing screwed up once again. IS KANYE THE ONLY ONE WITH BIG ENUF BALLS TO SAY WHAT PEOPLE IS THINKIN, HES A GENIOUS SO LETS FORGIVE THE DUDE BEFORE THIS GOS TOO FAR AND HE STOPS MAKINMUSIC THIS WORLD NEEDS RIGHT NOW, rant over!
    …kanye got more talent in his left nut than taylor got in her whole body!
    support great artists man!

  66. kanye got more talent in his left nut than taylor got in her whole body!

    ^when you mean great artists do you mean kanye? you do know he used to be a rapper right? And now, he’s planning to be the next king of pop? <–(HAHAHA!) hes an emo wannabe pop star, he’s no different from hanna montana. Personally, kanye does have talent as a producer, but definately not in the field of pop or as a singer. HOW COULD YOU BE SO HEARTLESSSS~

  67. I’m sorry but that jay leno interview. Both leno and kanye need to stfu, their both full of sh*t. fxckin egotastic muhfxckas!

  68. Let’s not forget who the original person bumrushing the stage at an awards show was… ODB R.I.P.

    The rest are seriously just stupid… Kanye… man, you just made yourself look like an idiot, simple and plain but in the grand scheme of things, who really cares. 99% of music on awards shows is bullshit anyways.

  69. …kanye got more talent in his left nut than taylor got in her whole body!

    U must know that from experience

  70. does Kanye have a ant farm on his head?

  71. Kanye West- Cant tell me nothing!

  72. South Park Gay Fish Episode On Comedy Central Tonight 9pm Eastern Standard.

  73. AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT NOTICES THAT JAY-Z ,KANYE WEST ARE SLOW OR MENTALLY CHALLENGED? JUST LISTEN TO SOME OF THERE INTERVIEWS,THESE 2 HAVE NO BRAIN CELLS.THEY ARE JUST PUPPETS FOR THE MASSES.UNCLE TOMS,SELL OUTS. KANYE IS A FLAMING JUICE GUZZLER,JAY-Z CANT PUT 3 SENTENCES TOGETHER. tHESE GUYS ARE PUPPETS,THATS IT.THEY DO WHAT THEY ARE TOLD TO DO. WHO BENIFITED THE MOST FROM BIGGIES DEATH.PUFFY/JAY-Z.BETTER SEE THRU THE CLOUDS BROTHERS.

  74. ^^^^^^^

    Really? Who’s on t.v.? Who’s successful, probably employs a shitload of people, owns a profitable enterprise and is considered one of the best in hip hop plus is married Beyonce? Who produces some of the dopest beats? Is a trend setter and ahead of the curve? Not you!!!!

  75. good to see there putting up the pyramid signs representing the new world order…jay z and kanye are sell outs

  76. isnt everyone making too much of a big deal out of this? I mean it was harsh, but kanye’s ego does make him a more entertaing person

  77. was everyone in hiphop not embarassed for kanye when he did that?? i mean yeah, tswift acted like a lil bitch just standing there and not taking it as a joke on tv, if he had done that shit to pink she woulda knocked his ass out..idk, just dont teach your kids that its ok to act like Kanye..cuz its not! and who said taylor swift music is rotting kids brains? lol id rather a kid listen to that than half the shit i listen to..

  78. people saying, who cares, it’s over, blah blah.

    FUCK KANYE.

    It ain’t just about this incident. The nigga thinks he can do whatever he wants. He ain’t even THAT big. There’s so many musicians that have accomplished more in the industry today. Colbert needs Operation Humble Kanye 2.0.

    South Park is having a Fishsticks marathon tonight cause of how dumb this fool is.

    FUCK KANYE WEST!!!

  79. one of these “real” rappers need to put a line in a song offering 10k for someone to knock kanye the fuck out and steal his chain

    ^hilarious

  81. [...] ordeal was just insane to begin with. SHAKE UPDATE: And this is all pretty much over already. Kanye apologized on Leno, Taylor spoke on it during The View, and lastly Ye called Ms. Swift on the phone and apologize [...]

  82. Who cares let him get on with his music. And maybe the president should be commenting on the more serious things in life rather than media celeb bullshit.

    If this were a white person like some dude from a rock band they would not be getting humiliated like Kanye has been especially by idiots like Pink (who cares about you, you carpet muncher).

    All the Kanye haters on here go F**k off and put your High School High cd’s on. Faggots.

  83. [...] ordeal was just insane to begin with. SHAKE UPDATE: And this is all pretty much over already. Kanye apologized on Leno, Taylor spoke on it during The View, and lastly Ye called Ms. Swift on the phone and apologize [...]

  84. hopefully we can get the old kanye back after this humbling experience bc thats what hip hop needs.

  85. legendary performance

  86. i felt that apology no matter.

    how ya’ll might feel.

    i forgive him for it.

    and hopefully ms. swift does too.

  87. horrible song. way to take a beat and ruin it completely. rich and whining. you should have people screen your stuff first jayz. all the money in the world does not make a good album and sales on this one will prove it. keep dumping money into promoting that crap and maybe youll make a little money, in the meanwhile these cds will end up in the trash sooner than later.

  88. that was on point, i like they spit it in the tone and delivery of the recorded version and that kanye wasn’t backing up jay’s lines sounds better that way in my opinion

  89. Encourage Peer-to-Peer Support and Mentoring Leaders need support, too. ,
