Kanye West Goes On Epic Rant About Grammys, Justin Timberlake

Can’t wait until tonight’s Oscars to get drunk? Well, here’s a perfect game for you: take a shot every time Kanye West said “sh*t” during an epic, 10-minute long rant at a concert at the Hammersmith Apollo in London last night. He went off on the Grammys, corporations, and most surprisingly, Justin Timberlake’s new single “Suit & Tie,” which he said he’s not “f*cking with.” Even by Kanye standards, this crazy-person-speech is bonkers.

Creativity fuels everything. I hate business people. People get at me and say, ‘What kind of business can it do? 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 yo face on it and shit?’ (Sings) Remind me again why we in this sh*t? Remind me again why we in this sh*t? It’s gotta be more than just to get rich. Since when was making music about getting rich? Since when was making art about getting rich? And I know it’s easy for me to say this. And having money’s not everything. And having it is. Remind me again why we in this shit? Remind me again why the Grammys can suck my d*ck? Remind me again who’s the original Superfly? I got love for Hov, but I aint fucking with that “Suit & Tie.” Remind me again why we in this sh*t? Remind me again why we in this shit? Every n*gger trying to get rich. And every rapper always rapping about f*cking someone else. Bitch. Remind me why we in this sh*t? Remind me why we in this sh*t? Why the Grammys can suck my d*ck? Suck my d*ck. Bitch. And every motherfucking sponsorship. They trying to put their logos on every concert and shit. For the meet and greet, you gotta meet the execs and their daughters. And they’ll show you what they just bought her. Remind me why we in this sh*t? Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this sh*t! Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this shit! Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this sh*t! Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this sh*t! Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this sh*t! Real n*ggas don’t live too long in this sh*t! They saying you coming off too strong in this sh*t. They always sayin’ what I’m doing wrong in this sh*t! Well, I don’t give a f*ck about anything! Well, I don’t give a f*ck about anything! Remind me why we in this sh*t? I lost my motherf*cking mom! Talking bout your comments, I could give a fuck about your comments. Cause we all gonna day some day, and I’m live my life my way! So, you gonna help me put on a better show, corporations? Can you please support me? Please? Me, Kanye West. I swear I’m a nice leader 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 pool in my backyard! So I’ll tell all my fans your sh*t is cool. And if they believe in me, then they’ll also believe in you. ‘Did we get the check yet? I gotta call the business manager. Did the corporations send the check? What is my public rating? Are people liking me again? Enough to get some money from the corporations? They forgot about the whole Beyonce thing, right? Cool. Is it OK now? Remind me why we in this sh*t? Remind me why we in this sh*t. (Via)
