*So what is up with Kanye West and his sudden hate for Jay-Z? We thought they were thicker than mud.
Is he jealous of Jay’s and Justin Timberlake‘s new found relationship? Sounds like it. But who knows. Maybe, just maybe there’s more to it.
The not-at-all-shy rapper took to the stage during his show in London Saturday and went off about Jay-Z and Justin’s “Suit & Tie.”
“I got love for Hov, but I ain’t f–king with that ‘Suit & Tie,” he told the crowd as “Clique” played in the background, which features him and Jay-Z.
Oh, he was just getting started with his rant about the music industry:
“I hate business people. People get on the phone with me and tell me, ‘What kind of business can you do, though? What type of business are you doing? What’s the numbers? How much did you sell? What’s the radio spins? How much shampoo can you sell with your face on it and sh-t. Remind me again why we in this sh-t. Can you remind me again why we in this sh-t? Since when [is] making music about getting rich? Since when was making art about getting rich?…Remind me again why we in this sh-t. Remind me again why the Grammys couldn’t suck my d-ck.”
Whoa! Say what?! Anyway, there was even more during the 10-minute diatribe:
“Can I sell a drink for you, please?” West continued. “So you can help me put on a better show. Please corporations. Can you please support me? I swear I’m a nice ni–a now. I swear I’ll put the pink polo back on. I swear to you. Please. Just for three million dollars. I need it so bad. I need a new pool in my backyard. I tell my fans your sh-t is cool. And if they believe in me they should also believe in you. What’s my public rating now? Are they liking me again? They forgot about the whole Beyoncé thing right? Okay, cool.”
Maybe Kanye is feeling somewhat left out of Hova’s plans to tour with Justin Timberlake. Jay Z & Justin recently announced the “Legends of The Summer” tour which is a series of 12 concerts that kick off July 17 in Toronto and wrap up Aug. 16 in Miami.
Watch the full clip below (the rant starts around the 6:00 mark).
Kanye sounds crazy!!! He sounds obsessed with Jay. Wow!!!!!
Kanye says: Since when was making art about getting rich?…Remind me again why we in this sh-t. Remind me again why the Grammys couldn’t suck my d-ck.” PERHAPS HE SHOULD GIVE ALL THE MONEY HE EARNED OFF THE BUSINESS TO CHARITY THEN….
Kanye proves time and time again how insecure he is…bitch azz…
Yesss!! Right\-on the $$$!! KW is talented but soooo insecure.
It has been said that Kanye idolizes Jay-Z.
Jay-Z has been able to attend Presidential functions… something Kanye can’t do.
Jay-Z has planned a tour w/o Kanye.
Jay-Z has a wife that did not star in a porn video… something Kanye will not be able to say.
Jay-Z seems to have no shortage of corporations willing to invest in him… something Kanye is struggling with (according to his rant).
Jay-Z seems to have quite a few billionaire friends… something Kanye could use more of!
I appreciate Kanye when he is real like this and goes “off script”.
Kanye is just mad at Jay & Beyonce because they won’t accept the love of his life, Kim Kardashian. I guess he thought they were all going to hang out together and be one big happy family but they ain’t messing with her at all.
…. and that’s GOOD. I hope they CONTINUE to distance themselves from that slut. She’s the “wrong” in “this picture”. She’s NOTHING of their caliber. Especially jay-z & beyonce. That trick has done NOTHING to warrant being in the company of A-list industry royalty like JayZ & Beyonce. And Kanye knows this – Kanye started losin’ the day he took up with this nasty bich – alotta people dont wanna fk with her, & I dont blame them. I just hope they dont “cave in” & start welcoming this lowlife into their tight circle, bcz she just doesn’t fit, I dont care HOW much Kanye tries to “change” her to be this “private” person – that’s all just to get her to be accepted but it aint gonna work bcz she is who she is – she’s running around telling tabloids & media that she’s a “private person” now, but then turns around & runs her mouth about everything she’s “doing” & does a magazine cover with herself NAKED & STRADDLED on top of Kanye with this expression in her face like they’re in the midst of a sexual act. Yea that’s private – good luck with that (((( sarcasm ))))
People can say what they want about Kanye, but everyone got to respect him for always keeping it real. He knows he could go and rock that jacket and tie like Jay Z to feel included, even knowing they don’t give a fuck about his black ass. But he’s too real for that. We all know that corporate shit is just about everyone kissing up to each other to gain favors, but he’s not going to assume a role to get them to support him. He knows that product endorsement is one of the biggest forms of hypocrisy. The endorser usually doesn’t believe in it, and neither does the company pushing it. Just something to take your hard earned money. Kanye doesn’t want to be a part of that. As he says, racism and materialism is killing blacks.
This man is uncompromising and will stick with his principles no matter what. I guess you can say he’s stupid for taking this stance and denying himself of millions. But he would rather be short on cash than be around people who he knows doesn’t really respect him for who he is.
I personally think Jay Z is a buster for dealing with Justin. Justin is a punk, will always be a punk. The way he conducted himself and left Janet Jackson to fend for herself. while he profited from that Superbowl incident, was and example of his true character. Janet will always be remembered for that, while his name never gets mentioned. And Yes it was a long time ago, but that is something that should not be forgotten. As a man he should have stepped up and said something. I never support in anything he does, I never buy nothing he puts out, I never listen to his music, anything he says. He’s a piece of @#$%
And how soon we forget, that Justin called Jay Z out, a few years back. Now look at them ? All buddied up. Whatever for that wackness.
@Sarah: I so agree with your comments!
Well Sarah, could be Janet will always be remembered for the incident because it was her titty that popped out, not Justin’s. Ya think? What was he supposed to say? Folks, I want to apologize for Janet’s titty flopping out?
While I appreciate his artistry, I’m kind of feeling Sarah on Justin Timberlake. And a hearty high-five to Reds!!!!! I like Kanye. He keeps it real regardless of personal cost. And has proved this fact repeatedly. Good show, ol’ chap!
IJS, folk wanna rep Pac?!! I’m FROM the East Bay and couldn’t give a fuck. Kanye has represented his brand and himself as a sole artist on many stages, including the eve of Katrina, saying what so many of us would WANTED to say, but COULDN’T.
Kanye is feeling left out watching Jay rolling along while steadily increasing his stock and trade with this Timberfake project, which will probably be a hit this summer. I’m sure he’s also pissed Kim couldn’t get up in the mix with Jay/Bey the way he believes she deserves to. No one’s worshipping her spreading azz except him.
EXACTLY. Kanye is the ONLY ONE who likes/loves that bitch. REAL talented hard-working celebs who work hard for & earned what they have do not wanna be bothered OR SEEN with a calculating fake-azz self-absorbed undeserving BITCH like kim wh0redashian who only gives a damn about getting attention, being seen & showing off every gotdamn aspect of her shit life. She may get around them & start running her MOUTH to tabloids & media about things they do – PERSONAL shit – and who needs that? Then she got that STUPID reality show, she’ll be trying to get them on THAT next, so she can SHOW OFF to the world that she’s “down” with JayZ & Beyonce. She didnt waste any time getting KANYE on that stupid reality show, he was there, in her closet, inducting CHANGE. Well he can “change” – or TRY to change – that slut all he wants. She will be just what she is & anything she portrays like she “changed” is a FRONT to “get in” & be accepted by A-listers & industry royalty – she wants that so bad ONLY bcz it makes HER look good. I guarantee you tho —> Kim Wh0redashian is nothing except what we’ve seen of her. I’m sure that 72-day marriage that she had televised & spent millions on does not help matters. People like Beyonce who value their privacy, art, talent & PERSONAL LIFE will not wanna be bothered with that sickening bitch. When she first started spreading her azz for Kanye I am pretty sure SHE SAW HERSELF being pals with Beyonce & going shopping together, on vacations, taking pictures, having Beyonce on her reality show – Kim is as deluded as they come – then she got slapped with reality, and that is SHE IS NOT LIKED VERY MUCH NOR WELCOMED IN THAT CIRCLE – She’s done NOTHING to deserve being in the company of Jay-Z & Beyonce – or people of their caliber – and as usual, Kanye is MAD & throwing HISSY FITS bcz he cant get his way.
Stop acting like a Mitch Kanye. You are about to be a father enjoy the moment no matter what. You bring K-OS to your own life.
I don’t get how saying you don’t like a song = “dissing” someone. Oh well
This fool is full of it! His baby-mama is everything he just said he hate! What…bcuz she on t.v. and he rap that’s not the same? Every last one of them get lost in the fame n fortune. Some start out wanting ppl to love their art, some only want fame n fortune (thats y there’s so much trash out there) and some want both. He wanted both! He just pissed cuz he gettin left out! Yes this is a free country and u can say whatever u want…but, there is ALWAYS conscience behind ur action. He needs to grow up. He’s a man-child.
Agreed, Kayne is telling the truth about the industry and these artists putting out anything and selling anything for money, ( MJ sounded crazy when he said Motolla was the devil..mmmmmh, I think Mariah knew the truth). And JT is a farce, constantly disrespect our people yet they lick him up! Kanye have no reason be be jealous or envious of the two, they may have more money but he has the talent without question, and I’m not even a fan of his
Even if he’s “keeping it real” with his diatribe – this fool could handle things in a better way. I don’t care for this fool as he always vying for attention. You are rich, successful and yet you choose to spend your time complaining over trivial things. There are so many things on this planet to be focused on: Social security, prepping for another album, making sure your money isn’t being embezzled and the list goes on and on….. Chill out and be THANKFUL and pray your daughter is born healthy!!!
“His baby-mama is everything he just said he hate!”
@dgoddess, so true. How can this possibly be lost on him??

That’s all I’m saying. So U done know wha side dis rude boy pon…
I like them all. They are all very talented. I think Kanye is just being silly to see how much attention he can generate and it is working. I love the song suit and tie although I don’t like Jay Z’s part because it takes away the flow of the song. I believe they all are good friends and trying to music sales
