The Grammys has happened, and during Beck's acceptance speech for Album of the Year, Kanye West actually went on stage. And everyone freaked out. Was Beck going to be the new Taylor Swift?
Thankfully he didn't do anything and it looked like he was punking the crowd.
But he actually did have something to say about Beck's Morning Phase beating out Beyonce.
Here's what he said during the post-show broadcast saying Beck should have given his award to Beyonce:
I don’t even know what [Beck] said. I just know that, the Grammys, if they want real artists to keep coming back, they need to stop playing with us. We aren’t going to play with them no more. ‘Flawless.’ Beyoncé’s video. And Beck needs to respect artistry, he should have given his award to Beyoncé.
At this point, we tired of it. What happens is, when you keep on diminishing art, and not respecting the craft, and smacking people in the face after they deliver monumental feats of music, you’re disrespectful to inspiration. We, as musicians, have to inspire people who go to work every day, and they listen to that Beyoncé album, and they feel like it takes them to a different place.
And then they do this promotional event, and they’ll run the music over somebody’s speech, the artist, because they want commercial advertising. We aren’t playing with them anymore. And by the way, I got my wife, my daughter, and I got my clothing line, so I’m not going to do nothing that would put my daughter at risk, but I am here to fight for creativity.
That’s why I didn’t say anything tonight, but you all knew what it meant when ‘Ye stepped on that stage.
Surprisingly, he could have a point because a lot of people don't know who Beck is.
And at one point, Jay-Z looked like his jaw was in the process of dropping.
