It is George Bush's fault

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Kanye West says he'll never return to MTV.

The 29-year-old rapper, who was shut out at the Video Music Awards on Sunday night, threw a tantrum in front of media and crew backstage as the MTV show was ending.

West, waiting for an elevator in a crowded hallway, began yelling about losing all five categories for which he was nominated, including male artist of the year.

"That's two years in a row, man ... give a black man a chance," said West, stomping around his entourage and directing his comments at a reporter. "I'm trying hard man, I have the ... No. 1 record, man."

It was the latest outburst from West at an awards show. Last year, he crashed the stage at the MTV Europe Awards after not winning for best video.

West's latest album, "Graduation," is due out Tuesday. 50 Cent has said he'd stop making solo records if West's CD outsells his "Curtis" album, also set for release Tuesday, in their first week out.

The 31-year-old rapper has been riled by forecasts that sales of West's "Graduation" could rival those for his CD.

West and 50 Cent appeared together at the VMAs to present an award.

Kay-ne needs to STFU already. He was nothing for so long, now he gets a little popularity going for him and thinks he's entitled to everything. Fucking rappers these days, they're a bunch of stoned wanna-be gangsters who expect the world handed to them for coming up with some lyrics. I loved his music early on and I may like his newest album too, but the man is lower then dog shit in my book at this point.

I got a feeling that a gunfight between those two would end up being like a battle between Imperial Storm Troopers who can't hit the broadside of a barn and a Star Fleet security team that immediately dies upon arriving at the scene.

The only thing we can hope for is that they get hit by a bus.

Didn't Rihanna win a load of stuff?
Are they just anti-black men, not anti-black?

Kanye is whiney and acting like a fool but I don't see how you can call him a wannabe gangsta. He doesn't act like a thug in real life or in his songs

I will always think of him as the dumn black guy that used a fund raiser for Katrina for his own political views "Bush hates black people" ... What a piece of trash, I hope he falls off the face of the earth.

I love it when these idiots are caught on camera during their tirades.

I just hope he doesn't use too much salt on the burgers in his next job when this star fades...

It was "George Bush doesn't care about black people". I don't really get why him being a black guy factors into you thinking he's a piece of trash. Somehow him being arrogant and full of himself isn't enough. Oh wait.. LSU. Makes sense.

wow, talk about judgmental, hmmm, because I'm from the south I must be a racist...lol, look in the mirror for once.

He is black trash because of what he said. Him being black has nothing more to do other than his statement stems from being a black. BTW, where are you from, so everyone can stereotype you too?

He is a crybaby, but he can put out some good tracks. Im not a huge hip hop fan by any means, but I do listen to some every now and then. I heard his new CD and it's pretty good.

I'm from Houston. I was making a point. A lot of the posts in this thread are just plain racist. If he was Justin Timberlake you wouldn't see any ridiculous comments about him being a wannabe gangsta, or him killing 50 cent. That's what real racism is-- not trivial crap like "the N word".

no, if some KKK guy said all blacks should die, or that Bush doesn't care about white people, I would call him a stupid white racist. It works both ways for some people, but others try to use the "racist" card whenever possible.

not only that, but it was the timing of when it was done. He didn't just say that this past year, he said it just after Katrina hit, and he did it on a telethon when he was brought in to try to raise money for people who lost everything and really needed money. But instead of trying to help people, he had to bring politics into it and play the race card.

No. A real racist is Kanye West who continually pulls the race card. That's a REAL racist right there.
