Kanye West BMA Censored
A source said: “He knew it was national TV. He’s Kanye. What are we supposed to do?”
E! Online adds:
Dr. West took the stage in typical flashy fashion, but the pyrotechnics produced so much smoke it nearly eclipsed the rapper himself. Still, Yeezus launched into an impassioned performance of “All Day” and “Black Skinhead,” only, because ‘Ye failed to censor himself, the network had to overcompensate, muting out large portions of his rap.
Kanye likely wasn’t thrilled that viewers at home missed out on much of his message, but those inside MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas got to experience the full ‘Ye glory as he intended.
Mariah Carey also didn’t have a dress rehearsal. Sources claim that this happens often for the stars.
Its funny the haters are generally white people…
that’s not an informed remark, it’s total conjecture and irresponsible at that. I know plenty of blacks that loathe him. music is not about the color it’s about the music. when you start to make it about the color you are inadvertently becoming what you hate, and that is white execs from the 1950s who thought strictly about music along the color lines.
There were black labels and white labels and novelty labels–you get the picture. When the idea of a crossover hit came around (you can thank the civil rights movement there) it BLEW THE MINDS of the guys running those labels. But it was the beginning, and we were all on our way at last…
How do you know they are white? And much like other current events, haven’t the supporters (everyone needs support) have rush to judgment on racism and oh my that is okay? We all have preferences. I am not a racist nor a hater, but I really do not like being lambasted by profanity. It can have a purpose, but you lose the artistic impact if you overdo it. Kayne loves to push buttons. He knew the rules. He pushed the wrong buttons and they pushed the “bleep” button.
