  3. lall says:

  4. Dan Marino says:

    Ye now reminds me of the Aldis Snow character from ‘Get Him To The Greek’ .

    Hope he’s in on the joke

  5. LukeCage says:

    Why was he so hella awkward at the end there?

  6. Tay Holland says:

    You deal wit bullying or criticism Kanye? Who is harassing you or threatening you in blogs, and online? Or you just tryna stop people from criticizing you by labeling your criticism, bullying? …smh.. Someone needs to explain to him what bullying is and what cristicism is!

    Cuz I smell some rapper pussification happening in hip hop…

    Ain’t none of that shit he talked about important to anyone listening to hip hop either, I don’t care that he wants to challenge some superficial symbols like rainbow shirts, smdh. What the fuck that got to do with whats going on in the streets, politics, economy, etc… Real Shit that effects real lives! Thats Rap! not this shit he’s talking about! gay

    Ruining hip hop…

  7. WilliamJacob says:

    I’m a big fan of the man’s music but this interview was ridiculous. Kanye takes himself way too seriously he thinks he’s saving the world or some shit.

  8. Briana says:

    You people are so simple…smh. Yea its gay because he’s not sticking to the tired formula of pussy, drugs, money, and the “struggle”.

  9. toad3527 says:

    I dunno man the more I think about it I think this guy might be a Gay Fish….

  10. Truth says:

    Wat does his sexuality have to do wit his music? Homophobes. If your favorite rapper came out and said im gay. You would stop listening to him? Wow. Kanye is the greatest. Gone…

  11. Funcrusher says:

    Runaway movie + long awkward, self-indulgent, pointless interview = not a good look.

    “We just made a big deal about the premier of this awful amateur film about you – now let’s talk about it”.

  12. KEEP ONE EYE OPEN LIKE CBS says:

    “I’m too big to chase you, I walk you down slowly”, in reference to Ye running. Why did he run anyway, when he got a 700 hp car? I’m tire of these rappers running, ever since the West coast back in the 90’s were running now everybody wants to run in their videos. Looking foolish, only niggas to run in their videos and made it look cool were: Tony Montana-when the Diaz brothers tried to murk him, then Jim Jones and Camron- running in their video through the Rucker….. oh my bad they were running for their lives, damn Brooklyn niggas!! If I see another rapper running… ooh boooy, anyway still gonna cop that album. “you over did it homes.” First and last quotes from the Broad Street Bully album, UGH (BIGGIE fuckn the track sound effects)!

  13. Rap says:

    toad3527 might be on to something here

  14. YouALLNeedLifes says:

  18. Gynger Brown says:

    THIS is what I’m talkin’ bout. I like to see that I’m not the only who feels these sentiments. EMpty words from empty beings. What does he lose from your hatred? And what do you gain? This is why the state of the world is in disarray. Because we hate to be AT ALL uplifting to our fellow man. It’s cool, though. Those who see the light WILL elevate. The Crazies, are the smarties, too! BROOHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

    BLAAAAAAAZED DAT AYAZZ!@Wtf?:

  19. Haters are annoying--> Android, Mac Weasel, Lucas and others says:

    @YouALLNeedLifes amd @truth co motherfuckin sign

    ignorant niggas dont appreciate shit !

  20. j says:

    YO SOMEBODY NEEDS TO MAKE THIS AN MP3 SO I CAN LISTEN IN MY TAHOE. FOREAL

  21. Tay Holland says:

    Hey Bitch @YouALLNeedLifes What da fuck you know! Bitch if celebs start going around slingin these terms like cyber bullying around and applying to themselves they diminish and deflect awareness from what it truly is! And for teens who REALLY are being cyberbullied that shit ends up happening to them physically! Its a REAL threat to their person! STFU! The shit he gets online is called CRITICISM! He’s a fuckin MC! 50 Cent gets twice the shit, Kanye gets, and he makes vidz & fucks back with errybody. U Don’t see him cryin, Oh I used to get cyber bullyed! The fuk outta here b!

    When kanye said he thinks it’s important for him to spend his time in hip hop challenging superficial BS like the stigma of men wearing rainbow shirts, while so called Planned Parenthood is settin up ANOTHER abortion clinic in a hood that already got too many, Hip Hop Died alittle more! What the fuck that got to do with Hip Hop!

    There is NO country for this superficial BS in music anymore, we tired of it! It’s making yall all dumb! obviously cuz the ni66a don’t know the difference between bullying & criticism!

  22. Tay Holland says:

    And BTW I AM a YEE Fan!! Just NOT this yeezy!

  23. […] (Den Rest des Interviews mit Mtv findet ihr bei Rapradar) […]

  24. […] that deep, just listen to the music. Remember, there’s also an album to promote. In addition, here’s the Q&A session Kanye had after the film. Watch the film, along with an extended version of the […]

  25. YouALLNeedLifes says:

    Ok @Tay Holland

    Here you go with the typical cussing people out
    calling them bitch cause you cant come up with anything orginal to say.
    But its cool if you gotta insult people over the internet then your just proving how ignorant people over the internet are.
    If you havent noticed no one here even agreed with your lame annoying rant that you typed up. least what ive said people agreed or understood what i was saying.
    But anywats yeah 50 gets alot of shit but Ye and Em probably get the most shit like ive already said immature gay racist and they dont care bout music they do it for money comments.
    your saying its critisism that ye is gettin not bullying? k how is calling someone gay fish critisism cause i see that at least ever ye post. how is calling him a racist criticism? how is 75% or more of comments on blog sites negative immature people who need to get out more and get a life so they can appreciate more things in life.
    Wether your criticising or being a bully you need to differenciate the meaning first. if you were criticising then you would describe what you didnt like in a none immature way. just say your not impressed no need to say anything negative about an artist doing music from their perspective and their minds for all of us to enjoy.
    and you say that your a fan of ye not this yeezy really because honestly this is the same kanye. kanye is and always has been himself and if your that ignorant and you cant tell then i feel sorry for you. im done talking to you now

  26. CLARK says:

    @YouAllNeedLifes

    Lighten up. Not everyone has to think Kanye is as cool as you do. One person said “gay fish”… who cares? It’s from South Park, did that episode really offend you?

    By the way its “lives” not “lifes”

  27. CLARK says:

    And the Aldis Snow comparison is perfect!

  28. YouALLNeedLifes says:

    Clark i never said kanye was cool i was saying people need to grow up and just appeciate music. i dont need to lighten up cause im not even trippin just explaining things to people that life isnt all about trying to be a know it all and complain over a blog post. and i said at least very kanye post someone says gay fish referring him to being gay its cool if you think that but keep tht to yourself how is tht relevant to the posts? also yeah i know its lives i messed up on my phone but didnt wanna fix it after i had already posted.

  29. Arlovski says:

    C’mon haters….
    What kind of answers to you expect to get when you ask an artist about his art.

    talking about “streets, politics, and the economy” would be off topic since this piece isnt about any of that.
    Most people here would agree that Hip Hop/ Rap not only is a format in which to display art. Be it Ye, Doom, Wacka, like it or not they are bringing your their interpretations.

    How are you going to hate the man who is combining Hip Hop with other forms of art and saying it is ruining the art of Hip Hop?

    Many great pieces of art come from these kinds of combinations.
    Am I saying ‘Runaway’ was a great piece o art? No
    but it is still ART.

    There are thousands upon thousands of other rappers who aren’t talented enough to be dynamc and stay on a linear path as to what they think hip hop should be.
    if you wanna hear about the streets…go listen to them. theyre out there.
    Hov said something like want his old shit go buy his old album.

    who else is doin this?
    not many.
    so hate and call him gay and all of that
    and keep being haters
    keep being philistines

  30. CUbe says:

    You can’t take it personally Ye! Most people are way too simple and shallow to really understand and to relate to what you’re saying.

  31. teejay says:

    what was his best rappers list?

  32. Drew says:

    He is speaking the truth the the youth now people. I feel like kanye is channeling his inner Wu now, people felt ODB was crazy but he spoke the truth. The reality of the world is dark and twisted as well, and why not stand up as a soldier of culture against a world that is trying to keep people in there place with the same old status quo. He may not be saying what you want to here, but he is saying it better than anyone else out there for sure. Speak the truth to the youth Ye.
