- moredown, on 11/23/2008, -13/+381ahhh hahahaha "In a display of extremely douchey poor sportsmanship, he now claims that the MTV awards shows are fixed, because how could the "voice of this generation" lose otherwise?"
Kanye the voice of this generation? please!! - civilizedevil, on 11/23/2008, -19/+272Kanye West is a joke of a human being. Its almost scary how delusional he is. I'd hate to tell him but he's pretty damn far down the list of hip-hop greats, let alone music as a whole. In fact, if there were a list of the world's greatest musicians, past and present, and the list were 1000-2000 people long. He wouldn't even be on it.
- EWiggen, on 11/24/2008, -3/+238PEARL JAM ENDED ONE HOUR
LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT THAT POINT WE'RE RACING AGAINST THE SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Kanye West, on a recent blog post
Please donate to the Kanye West keyboard fund. With your help, we can get that caps lock key replaced, and that 1 key unstuck. Thanks everyone! - Hetman, on 11/23/2008, -7/+231This is the first time I actually read a list and thought damn it is like 90 reasons too short. He does know the fate of hendrix, Cobain, and Morrison right. I dunno if I would want to follow in their footsteps.
- drmobutu, on 11/24/2008, -11/+201Not just a douche, THE Douche...
- Locke23, on 11/23/2008, -15/+190"In that year there was
an intense visitation
of energy.
I left school & went down
to the beach to live.
I slept on a roof
At night the moon became
a woman's face.
I met the Spirit of Music."
- Jim Morrison
Let me see Mr. West match the late Jim Morrison... he doesn't even come near his level of intellect
Much less that of Hendrix, or McCartney, or anyone else for that matter. - Thinkerofthings, on 11/23/2008, -24/+170he is a joke and a disgrace
there's two reasons - chromerium, on 11/24/2008, -19/+157* He uses autotune for everything because he can't sing in tune.
* His lyrics are *****.
* He's a poor loser.
I've no experience of Kanye except when he played at Sydney, and he was ***** then. - Beevo, on 11/24/2008, -10/+139Got a blind digg from me. Can't stand the moron.
- newserr, on 11/24/2008, -5/+116"I can sing."
producer: "No u can't."
"Yeh Yeh just press that button thing"
producer: "The cher button?" - Steyr47, on 11/24/2008, -9/+117Ever hear of Obama?
- Tsumuji, on 11/24/2008, -3/+109I'm always wary that quotes are taken out of context in any story that bashes someone, but these quotes were PARAGRAPHS of douchebaggery. "I am the new Kurt Cobain?" Someone needs to punch this ***** in the face.
- doublefelix, on 11/24/2008, -60/+158Why does Digg hate black people?
- Jagdelysian, on 11/24/2008, -3/+88And yet those stupid ***** sunglasses don't even make the list.
- HimThatSpeaks, on 11/24/2008, -2/+84I will be happy when "Kanye" becomes an adjective describing the douchy qualities of a person.
- iPanda, on 11/23/2008, -24/+97Well, everyones got their vices, his music wouldn't be the same if he were a shy emo kid.
And hell, i'd be angry too if britney spears beat me at my lifes work. - Checkerd, on 11/24/2008, -0/+60Hes not the voice of a generation, just the loudest ***** in the room.
- pwnzj00, on 11/24/2008, -3/+59Fame's one hell of a drug.
- Light0, on 11/24/2008, -4/+53The fact that he is proclaiming HIMSELF even the slightest bit comparable to the master such as Hendrix or Morrison is nothing short of offensive.
What first led me to lose respect for this narcissistic pop artist: his Feb 9, 2006 cover of Rolling Stone, depicting West with the thorns of Jesus on his head. That is so arrogant, regardless of personal religious belief.
Here's a pic: http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/kanyewest/phot ... - replaysMike, on 11/23/2008, -13/+61Dugg for stating the obvious in the title.
- Chrysalii, on 11/24/2008, -0/+47only his white half.
- SanDiablo78, on 11/23/2008, -21/+67He has a few catchy songs and that's about it. I hope he's taken off his high horse soon.
- inactive, on 11/24/2008, -18/+61His music sucks anyway, and if you want some reasons:
1. The guy can't rhyme for *****.
2. The guy appears to have no rhythm: Most of the time, his lyrics don't even fit into the beat of the song. If you can't rhyme, you should at least be able to speak IN RHYTHM. I mean, you're supposed to be a rapper, right?
3. What cadence he does have is the same lilting, whiny delivery verse after verse, song after song.
4. He's a douche. - Llanowar, on 11/24/2008, -0/+40Kayne West: HI EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!
Digg: try pressing the the Caps Lock key
Kayne West: O THANKS!!! ITS SO MUCH EASIER TO WRITE NOW!!!!!!!
Digg: ***** me - ZenBane, on 11/24/2008, -7/+45Did everyone forget about Bonnaroo? Why isn't that a listed reason, because what he did there was super douche baggish.
- TheInformer, on 11/24/2008, -6/+40#1. Looking like a spent condom when saying "George Bush hates black people"
- kingjaydub, on 11/24/2008, -9/+42Dugg because of the title. I don't even need to read it.
- Autrix, on 11/24/2008, -1/+33those glasses are popped-collar cool.
- Jeffler, on 11/24/2008, -0/+31WHOOSH
- Myotis85, on 11/24/2008, -1/+32HOLY *****! The dude said that he would be in the bible... FOR RAPPING|PRODUCING...
I love the HELL out of hip-hop but that kind of bigheadedness is really %#cked up! - GarrettGrimsley, on 11/24/2008, -0/+31I dugg him up for sarcasm.
- cobainirvana, on 11/24/2008, -5/+35I have two entire books of albums from my favorite artists. I've listened to oldies, metal, rock, rap, pop, indie, chill music, acoustic music, jazz, musical soundtracks, classical, unknown bands that are just awesome....no one can say I don't have diversity. I can not name a single song by Kanye. I understand that no one cares about my opinion, but I do not feel as if I'm missing ANYTHING AT ALL by not listening to him.

Utter arrogance. - jasmus, on 11/24/2008, -1/+31"I'm typing so ***** hard I might break my ***** Mac book Air!!!!!!!!"
Nothing else needs to be said. - PoopOnPaul, on 11/24/2008, -2/+31You're doing it wrong.
Digg doesn't care about black people. - inotocracy, on 11/24/2008, -0/+28It was a light show and he came on, IIRC, 3 hours late so not too long into his performance the sun was coming up. Completely ruined it. Attendees wrote "***** kanye" all over the place and were throwing light sticks at him.
- PoopOnPaul, on 11/24/2008, -0/+27He broke his ***** Mac book Air cuz he was typing so ***** hard!!!!!!!!
- packerh8r84, on 11/24/2008, -10/+36The Biggest Douche in the Universe!
- sonicbliss, on 11/24/2008, -1/+27Kanye *is* the producer!
- DiggJunkie, on 11/24/2008, -0/+26Yeah your right I was there and he was 2-3 hours late made people stop playing their shows and then played a terrible unforgivable performance..then he whined about people being pissed about it on his blog
***** KANYE - inactive, on 11/24/2008, -0/+25Black culture? Don't you mean popped collar and douche bag culture?
- DifferentAngle, on 11/24/2008, -1/+25He's asking for a south park episode about him...
- NeoNcP, on 11/24/2008, -8/+32***** kanye
- PiggtailGirl, on 11/24/2008, -3/+26He's getting people to do exactly what he wants.
Talk about him. - semperfidoordi, on 11/24/2008, -10/+32I think i'll take Barack Obama as the voice of my generation thanks.
- foolishwolf, on 11/24/2008, -9/+31I honestly can't listen to his music anymore thanks to his exemplary achievements in douchebaggery
- davidjunit, on 11/24/2008, -0/+21I envy you.
- deetank, on 11/24/2008, -0/+20I was coming to say his antics at Bonnaroo should be on the list, but they had his post-'Roo blog as #9. Fair enough.
I saw at least 3 cars with "***** Kanye!" signs on the way home from Bonnaroo. That made me happy. -
