WHY KANYE FUCKING RULES: by Gunnar

Kanye West rules. Sorry, but it’s true. No, I don’t consider him a ground breaking artist. I can’t even name more than one song. And of the one songs I can name (“Gold Digger”) I like ZERO of them.

“But, Pinny, you just said he rules. What gives, Man?”

He rules because at the world’s most UN-rock-and-roll ceremony of the year, The Grammys, he is the ONLY thing that is consistently rock and roll. He’s an asshole. He’s delusional. He gets away with murder. And he’s the ONLY thing people ever remember about the Grammys each year because he’s the only thing that consistently makes it at all interesting.

Is he a horrible person that makes horrible music? Of course he is. But guess who cries about Kanye and turns him into a giant mythic beast time after time? All the crybaby dipshits that tell us year after year that Kanye doesn’t matter and that they don’t care about the Grammys, that’s who.

Ozzy and other metal acts can give thanks for part of their skyrocket to superstardom in the early to mid 80’s to the moronic conservatives and faux-religious folk who drove out to Ozzy and other metal shows to march around with picket signs and throw records on bonfires. Did that make Ozzy less cool and desirable? No. IT. MADE. HIM. FUCKING. AWESOME!!!

And now my peers, the same children of the 80’s who waved the flag of metal and rock and roll and said “fuck you” to the man . . . . have BECOME the same boring ass yuppies, crawled up their own asses and actually angry at the Grammys. The Grammys. The fucking Grammys. They may not make poster boards and go down to picket in front of the Kodak theatre, but they do it on the internet. EVERY. FUCKING. DAY.

Justin Bieber and Kanye West. That’s who metal folk cry about, every fucking day. Did you people forget where you came from? I sure haven’t. I’m metal and I’m proud. My world is traditionally a world of rebels and rejects. Not crybabies mad about an awards show that thinks Jethro Tull is more metal than Metallica (80’s Metallica, so just keep your too-cool-for-Metallica comments to yourself too).

Ozzy got kicked out of a contract signing meeting with his record company for biting the head off a dove. And you homos are crying that Kanye interrupted Beck and that Nacho Libre got best metal song?

My advice to you is . . . try spending less time and energy on giving a fuck and more time on enjoying stuff that matters. Did you know that AC/DC played the Grammys? I didn’t. But I’m glad they did. I hope more people realize that great music still exists. I hope that the people that support and love that great music do so inspite of the Grammys.

Stop being pussies.

Love,
Gunnar

I’ve thought the same thing for years about the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. I wish one year some band that got inducted wouldn’t go to the ceremony and rent a flat bed truck or something and play a free show outside while the ceremony is going on inside. THAT would be rock n roll.

I agree with both of the above posts.

And this is far more interesting than Kanye West…

I agree that Kanye West is awesome, and not only that but I think musically he IS innovative, has changed the mainstream, and continues to take risks more than any of these once-groundbreaking artists that we’re all such fans of who now churn out the same shit over and over to appease the faithful…

If anything he’s consistently made music that is way more interesting than the average top 40 shit, and he’s been a male voice with something to say (regardless if you agree) in contrast to the many female voices with nothing to say, which typically dominate the airwaves.

HAHAHA!!!

That would be awesome if one year all the nominees just boycotted and said to give the award to Kanye. He’d have no speeches to interrupt and nothing to complain about. He’d just be standing there on stage with his dick in his hand looking like a moron.

He wanted to give the award to Beyonce.

Be-yon-ce.

So fuck “awesome”.

Burzum is “awesome”.

Not Kanye.

Kanye sucks. And the Grammys suck too.

His actions are not rock-n-roll. They are, as Shirley Manson said, that of a spoiled baby throwing a tantrum.

Which fits perfectly in line with the lameness of the Grammys.

It’s sad, really. There used to be rock-n-roll moments, like the ones you cite. Now people just interrupt speeches and throw eggs at their neighbor. Maybe talk shit on Twitter.

Lame.

Far as I can tell, Kanye is the only one who gives a shit about the Grammys.

Regardless of generation, they’ve always been fucked. And Kanye is still an asshole.

Man Gunnar you seem to have really struck a nerve here.

Don’t feel bad, though - to console you, I found this [url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDZjLAGIZoE]awesomely corny butchering of “We’re Not Gonna Take It” re-done as a commercial for Ed Morse Honda in Palm Beach.

“For va-lue and for sa-vings…it’s ED MOOOOOORSE!” Dah dah dah dah dah dah!!!

11

Do you have any safe-for-work porn for me to look at while I listen to that??

12

I have a love-hate relationship with Kanye. His music’s not too shabby, one of the few rappers I can listen to without cringing. But his tantrums and mindless retarded rants just make him look like a monster bozo.

Idk man… either he’s really dumb and delusional or he’s smart as fuck. I still don’t know yet.

You can’t walk 10 feet in South Florida without hearing that Ed Morse commercial…been around for the better part of a decade…I hate it so much…

He’s just mad because a white person won.
You know it.

Who wouldn’t be? Honky bastards been stealing everything since like forever.

Haha! That Ed Morse commercial is incredible.

Haha! That Ed Morse commercial is incredible.

Not so much if it’s been forced down your throat for 10 years…ugh

18

Damn! That would suck.

19

Damn! That would suck.

I don’t mean just on TV and radio(of which I don’t indulge in much of either)but any time you walk in to a store or go to a game or walk down a street where there are shops…this fucking thing is playing…gotta give it to Ed Morse,he gets the word out there…I can’t imagine how much his monthly bill is for promoting that fucking place…

Wow, I had no idea that jam had such local staying power.

This is one of the benefits of having a subscription to the NHL’s “game center” service - I can tune in to the local broadcast of any hockey game within North America, and during the “TV timeouts” I can get a taste of the local color via commercials for used car lots and such.

There is another one that gets played repeatedly during broadcasts on New York’s “MSG” network, for Hyundai Route 4 Hyundai of Paramus…[url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeyBKz-tEso]“4 Is Always Less!” Totally insipid (and not a logical mathematical proposition), and so brutally catchy.

But anyway, back to Kanye…

By the way - and I know this is a very, very long shot - has anybody read through George W. Bush’s autobiography “Decision Points”?

Someone else was telling me, there is a part in there where says that one of the worst moments of his presidency was when Kanye West claimed W “didn’t like black people.”

I haven’t personally read it, even by going on Amazon to ‘look inside’ - so I don’t know if that’s a paraphrase or an outright fabrication.

But, if true - wow. Out of all the historical blunders that happened on ol’ boy’s watch, THAT’s the standout moment? That would be like…well, imagine I became president and 4/5 of our population died from thermonuclear war and plague or something, then I wrote my memoirs afterwards and said “but the coldest day of all was when Lady Gaga called me a dick on her Instagram.”
