The multi-platinum, Grammy winning trainwrecks? Those?

Since when do the Grammys mean shiat? Since when does multi-platinum mean shiat?

Popularity tends to be inversely proportional to the quality of the music.

I like Kanye's stuff, and I'm not usually a big fan of pop. I mean sure, I love the Ronettes "Be My Baby", but I f*cking hate that "I kissed a girl" and whatever else kind of bullsh*t song on the pop charts.

But I think Kanye had/has some quality stuff.

I wasn't making a comment either way about Kanye's music. I was simply refuting the statement that number of albums sales and Grammy nominations have any reflection on the quality of the music.

He's the best popular hip hop artist on the radio at the moment.... not that that says much. At least his songs don't make me feel like a farking retard while hearing them. I swear to christ popular hiphop kills braincells.

Because if there's a sure way to determine that someone is talented, it's the number of albums they sell to the mouth-breathing public or the winning of an award from an institution notorious for making political decisions.

Kanye West, the one guy everyone can agree is worthy of a facepalm.

I don't agree with that.

If any of the haters spent 15 minutes at his performance last night at Lolla, they'd probably have to eat their words. He's an entertainer, and wow did he entertain.

/not a role model folks

Fawke that Guy.

Oh, I'm sorry, I made a mistake here. I was under the impression that the term "trainwreck" in reference to a consumer product was measured by either commercial or critical failure, not your own highly evolved personal opinion.

Honestly, what a self-important loser you must be.

One of the most interesting attributes of Farkers is their ability to say that success is not success, albeit with an obvious air of smugness surrounding it. And when I say "interesting" I mean "it makes me want to punch babies in the face."

Kanye isn't a failure just because you don't like him.
