Kanye West

So, Kanyizee has been getting a bit of bad press in the news lately. Something about snatching the microphone out of Taylor Swift's hands and telling the crowd at the VMAs that Beyonce had the better music video. Everybody's gone and caught feelings because Kanye told her that she sucked in comparison to Beyonce.

I just watched Taylor Swift's video. It sucked. Actually, I didn't even watch the whole thing; it's still playing. I just switched windows. Seriously, it's unwatchable. The song itself is almost unlistenable, but that's neither here nor there.

I'm not sure how it happened, but Beyonce somehow won best video, yet lost best female video. To Taylor Swift's violent assault of art. How exactly?

The audience. The audience somehow had some type of brain lapse and forgot how to function correctly. Somehow they gave an award to a young upstart who is a pretty voiced, beautiful but cheesy and lame singer. The only thing going for her is her ok voice, a humanized auto-tune, and her looks. That's how she won. Which is unfortunate because there are great female artists out there whose looks don't conform to the Aryan standard America wants them to conform to so we never here about them. But those nice little blond, blue-eyed girls get all the votes. Yay!

Who should have really won? Keri Hilson. Her "Knock You Down" video was amazing. Some of you are going to say, "Wait. That wasn't even nominated." I know and it's a freaking travesty. That video was nothing short of genius.

MTV is bull. It's been said for years, but it's true. The people who watch it are idiots and they wouldn't know good video direction if it walked up, kicked them in the face, and left their calling card.

Now, I started off this post talking about Kanye. I'm sure a couple people were starting to get antsy wondering if I was ever going to bring Mr. West back up. Well here he is. I don't understand the problem. Taylor Swift sucked. It's true. She didn't deserve the award. He was correcting what he saw as a malfeasance in the voting. So he did it in a way that was pretty mean. SHE. DID. NOT. DESERVE. THAT. AWARD.

Though, I don't know why it was such a big deal in the first place. MTV sucks. They don't know real talent and their award shows are only based on commercial selling power. It's basically a long commercial for music artists.

Either way, Kanye did the right thing. And I stand by his genius.
