Kanye West Continues to Create Controversy! Disses Past Grammy Album of the Year Winners including Swift!

He just can't leave Taylor Swift alone although I do agree that she so did not deserve to win Album of the Year this past Feb. And the other 2/4 I will agree with too but hell to the no for Dixie Chicks in 2007! I loved their album. 'Not Ready To Make Nice' is like one of my favorite songs ever! They probably didn't need that win since they got 4 others that year but don't hate Kanye because your arrogant ass can't win crap..

Here is the article with a video in the link:

kanye-west-AccessKanye West has strong opinions about awards shows. Anyone who has forgotten this salient fact can find a reminder in West’s latest explosive interview with Access Hollywood. The rap superstar spoke out against what he sees as undeserving recent winners of the Grammy Award for Album of the Year…including, you guessed it, Taylor Swift. Oh dear. Here we go again!

“Where’s our instant replay clock?” West asked, according to Access Hollywood. “Why are the last four Albums of the Year: Taylor Swift, Dixie Chicks, Ray Charles and Herbie Hancock? Like, you know, with all due respect… that’s inaccurate.” (Speaking of inaccuracies, he forgot to mention Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, who won in 2009. Maybe he’s a fan.)

Instead, West suggested a few albums he’d rather have seen win. “It’s like ‘SexyBack’ — you know what I’m saying? Like [Justin Timberlake's] FutureSex/LoveSounds, Gnarls Barkley. How about Usher — Confessions? How about albums that sold 10 million?”

Lest you misunderstand the motivations behind these words, West clarified the larger social significance involved: “I pinpoint the Grammys and the VMAs because they have to take responsibility, because they mean something to us. Little kids, 6 years [old], that are singing in front of the mirror. They’re also thinking about their Grammy speech; they’re thinking about when there will be a VMA so these people, whoever run them… they have to take some responsibility to say what really happened in culture this year because we’re marking it down.”

What do you think? Is West right about those Grammy winners? Did Justin Timberlake deserve to win over Dixie Chicks, or Usher over Ray Charles? Check out the the Access Hollywood clip after the jump and sound off in the comments.

I know he is an asshole.

But he has had some songs I like although his recent stuff is shit if you ask me..

There is no buts, he has good music but it doesn't change the fact that he is an asshole.

Eventhough i like his songs i won't buy his shit because he's an asshole and i don't support assholes. Because he is not worth it.

Doesn't he understand that a lot of people enjoy love songs? Seriously, at least Taylor is being original in her style, not "ghetto black guy number 500"...

I love Kanye West!!! He is AWESOME!!! I also agree he should be in the bible.

Well... at least he's honest. He makes himself look more and more like a prick each time he speaks. Regardless of your opinion, give these other folks at least.

Whoa! Usher was FUCKING robbed for "Confessions" I love JT but I also loved The Dixie Chicks that year so no biggie, lol @ Kanye never winning best album, is that why he's so fucking pissy?

At least the fucker's consistent but he REALLY wasn't flat-out attacking them, he was just saying in his view were inaccurate picks which he may or may not be right but it wasn't a full-blown assault.

Sorry Usher wasn't robbed...if Ray didn't win.....either Alicia or Green Day deserved it....The Confessions Albums WASN"T THAT great tbh. Aside from the songs released it wasn't that good.

If he has such a HUGE problem with the Grammy's & VMA's he could always withdraw his name from ever being nominated....if not, he should just shut the fuck up and deal with it.
