RUINING YOUR CAREER IN 8 SECONDS

Career?
He had one?
kayne west has been in many captions on failblog. the only reason i know him is through fail blog. why do people hate him?
He had an affair with a giraffe
I don’t blame him for that. You know you love the tall ones.
he is like the best rapper alive, at least one of them, his verses are amazing, just because he made a mistake doesnt mean he messed up the rest of his career, trust me he will get back on his feet
yes, one needs to be on his feet to be able to hang oneself, known fact.
Maybe you should hang yourself, what have you done that is notable?
If you define “notable” as desperately trying to cling onto quickly rising obscurity by using sad publicity stunts, then yes, Kanye’s got everybody beat.
Yep. What i’m surprised about is… does anyone remember the music awards in the past, where he flipped out when he didn’t win? That used to be one of the reasons we all didn’t like him. Now this.
What REALLY killed me was when Barack Obama called him a jackass to one of his friends, but didn’t realize it was taped. It was all over the web. I swear to god, being called a jackass by the presidnt would give me more publicity than i would have ever wanted.
best rapper…wow…
Most rap is lame..period.
I consider people who listen to only rap to be very trashy individuals.
THANK YOU!
i prefer rock over rap or hop hop in general
He’s not a rapper, he’s an MC.
Being the best rapper alive doesn’t actually account to much, FYI. /: |
She should have put that trophy upside his head; the dent would have made it a conversation piece for years.
The dent in the trophy, or the dent in his head?
Either one.
Ruined his career? I doubt that.
Yeah, didn’t it give him buttloads of publicity?
FAIL
Get some new material.
You are correct.
@Wormulon –
During this year’s music video awards, Taylor Swift won “best new female” or somesuch. During her acceptance speech, Kanye West ran onstage and ripped the mike away from her and said something like “I’ma let you finish. . . ” and then went on to use her allotted time to say that he thought Beyonce’s video was the best of all time.
On a brighter note, later on when Beyonce won an award, she gave her time allotment to Ms. Swift to finish her interrupted statement.
Taylor’s comment afterwards… “Well, you know, I was up there and I was standing there and I saw Kanye up on the stage,” she explained. “I was really excited … and I kind of wasn’t excited anymore.”
She’s too nice to whack him upside of the head with the trophy… I think Miley would have laid him out cold though…
The thing is, Miss Cyrus would never be able to win such an award. Alas, we will never get to see her lay the smack down…
I’m still in disbelief that Taylor Swift even wins awards…
She’s-–caps lock–TERRIBLE! O_o
and what planet are you from?
Too bad. It would have made for great video, and nobody would have blamed her one bit.
A nice touch by Ms Knowles then, and not one that’s been much reported over here.
Kayne West jumped on stage at the MTV music awards when Taylor Swift won the award for best female music video. He took the mike and said “Hey, I’m real [sic] happy for you. I’m gonna [sic] let you finish, but Beyoncé had the best music video of all time. Of all time. Thank you.”
As you may understand, doing that made him look like a giant douche. And as such, he “ruined his career”.
I’m not a pop culture person either, but if you’re just an internet person (the kind that goes to pages such as this) you should know this too.
“IMMA LET YOU FINISH” has become a meme of sorts.
Ah yes!! The Interweb – Home of Memes since 1969
I’m sorry but i find it really hard to believe that you couldn’t google this, unless you were searching for something really stupid.
“kanye west taylor swift” is all you need to do, and would be the obvious thing I would search if I didn’t know what it was about.
Yup tried that…then left it. Did one search with that phrase..then just gave up and asked cos I was at work. I’m home now, but might still not bother looking as this was answered.
Thanks
Allow me to welcome you to the internet. I have some rather innocuous looking links for you to follow!
yea but for that would you need to know the names of the two people shown in the image. I really did not know. But thanks to all these comments I now do .
(I can’t believe I’m actually spending time writing this!!!)
Taylor Swift isn’t exactly a super duper angel like everyone makes he out to be. She’s supporting suing a Bar for playing a tiny part of one of her songs, and the whopping sum of this lawsuit she’s supporting and bringing lawyers into is only a tiny amount compared to the vast millions she is making, and it’s all over a few karaoke bits.
I mean really Taylor? Do you have to put spies in every bar and restaurant and sue them if they play songs without your explicit permission, even if the lawsuit amounts to a few bucks? All that happy crap you spout about creativity and music doesn’t really hold up when you won’t let anyone listen without paying up.
In conclusion, both Kanye and Taylor can be jerks. But we don’t listen to their music because of who they are, we listen to their music because we like their music. Well… if you actually like their music of course.
Is that true? I just lost what little bit of sympathy I had for her.
The question of course being “is it true?”
With no documentation to prove one way or the other, all we have is the word of someone no one here has met.
Oh please, the article even specified that it’s BMI that’s causing the rukkus. They’re slapping Taylor’s name on the lawsuit to cause a stir.
Even if it had been Taylor who had sought out the lawsuit, she would be in the right. Copyrights exist for a reason. She may not need the money, but it’s about principle and standing up for all the other people who put effort into producing the record, many of whom are not raking in the big bucks.
In all fairness when any teen pop star tries to convince everyone they’re an angel and perfect I don’t buy it.
But that’s just me.
You’re only mentioning the part that makes Taylor look bad. This bar had actually been stealing music from lots of different people (many of whom are with Taylor in the lawsuit), and using the music for karaoke and stuff as well.
I personally think they’re doing this just because of this: if they let this go and pay no attention to it, people are going to start thinking they can get away with this type of thing. Then they really WILL start losing lots of money.
Exactly; consider why we have copyright, trademark, patent, and other intellectual property laws in the first place. “It is the little rift within the lute/that by and by will make the music mute.” Winking at minimal violations can be the “camel’s nose under the tent.”
I’d be pissed if someone stole my stuff, too.
Wahoo!!! this is so right!! Kanye West is the biggest A-hole in the universe!!!! So up yours Kanye!! He had no carreer amyway so ya!!! BTW i’m obsessed with Taylor Swift!!
She already ruined her career by opening her mouth.
Oh wait, you mean Kanye.
High five! Thank you so much for this.
Taylor Swift is…well, she’s…Huh. Words fail me.
Kanye West’s career is not ruined. Do you think people who listen to him care about Taylor Swift’s feelings? haha this is the dumbest post I’ve ever seen.
I assume you’re one of these sad people?
I’ve never seen a full still of this before (i.e., one that includes both West and Swift in the picture, not just West). The look of “WTF is wrong with you, man?” look on Taylor Swift’s face is priceless.
Kanye is such a gay fish.
Well, he did admit to liking Fishsticks.
You can’t ruin something that wasn’t there to begin with… sure, this made him look like a Douche, but endorsing that friggin’ Copycat going by the name of Beyonce makes him an even bigger one than what he did at the Award Show.
What’s with his hair? Is it “in” to shave paisley designs into your head?
Hi! I’m Two Months Ago, and i approve this blog entry!
West had said and done several weird things before he did this to Swift. The guy has taken some time off to deal with his issues. (alcohol and drugs) His career was marginal before this and is prolly over because he keeps screwing himself up.
The look on her face is priceless.
And it looks like he has crop circles on his head.
Maybe it’s a maze. You have to roll his brain through it to the center to get him to think properly.
No no, not Taylor Swift, the caption’s for Mr. Maze Head.
It gave him another fifteen minutes of attention since the “George Bush hates black people” attention-whore crap he pulled on live TV has long since faded. This latest stunt backfired though since Taylor Swift’s visibility then went through the roof, while Kaney had to cancel his tour.
Finding true talent nowadays in rap is rare.
On my frequent trips to procure new tunes, Kanye is one I always skip…
I have sample his early works, some underground stuff and some current works too, but the only things MARGINALLY entertaining are colaborative works… nothing solo and nothing original.
His recent ‘acts’ have only solidified the fact that he is searching for ways to augment a talent that is subpar… IMO
These six seconds aren’t the only thing that’s ruined his career. It’s been steadily going down the drain since he started making an ass of himself in public.
Still didn’t brake Zinedine Zidanes record of 0.36 seconds
People who no nothing about rap are ridiculous. Kanye definitely has a very solid career and if anything is going to wreck it, it will be the abomination that was 808, not his douchebaggery
I know one thing about ‘rap; the fact that it’s normally said and typed without the initial letter “C”.
RAP: Retards Attempting Poetry
Ruining his career, Magnifying hers!
kanye stunk.
She should’ve Sparta’ed (kicked) his ass back in the (audience) pit.
N!ggers suck.
