ODB vs. Kanye

sooooo. day in and out i get shit for lovin me some 'ye. ok, he's an egotistical little cock. his last album fell flat on some fans' ears. he hurt little taylor swift's feelings. whoooooo cares. i would like to actually thank mr. west for making the vma's the most humorous moment of their televised history, and for continuously bringing joy to my life with his infamous outbursts. (who can forget michael myer's face during the unforgettable "george bush doesn't like black people" hurrican katrina moment. classic). plus, yes, i do enjoy his music. get over it. but really, what i want to touch on is how kanye got soooo much shit and backlash for his drunken outburst at a fake award show for "music" television - which really let's face it people, when's the last time you saw a music video in completion - or even trl like snippets for that matter- on mtv. probably ten years ago. so ye, gets off on his henessey kick and storms the stage to stand up for beyonce. way to go, man. he's probably a pretty good friend, really. i'd like ye to stand up for me someday. the fact that he happened to yank a mic from a stuttering prettty little country thang is just that much funnier.

but ok, didn't that whole debacle seem somewhat familiar? think hard. . . say, maybe about 13 or so years ago when this long forgotten lezy folk singer won a GRAMMY, for some shitass song about a fictional character named "sonny" coming home. yep, only losers like me with no time on their hands remember this trivial garbage, but shawn colvin won one of the highest prestige awards for musicians, for something like song of the year. as she joyfully strutted up the stage, this AWESOME moment took place. ODB, the original hip hop sonuvabitch. he jumped right up through the security and shouted out loud WU-TANG DID IT FOR THE CHILDREN! he bought an outfit that costed a lot of money, cuz he thought they'd win! he didn't care about no dumb white bitch, and neither did ye. at least ye was standing up for beyonce, whereas odb was upfront about his wrongs and stole the limelight for himself and fellow wu-members.

everyone back then was just like, "oh that silly odb," shaking their heads. "he's obviously uneducated and messed up, what a jester," whereas he and wu's career probs flourished from the outburst, ye had to go into hiding and apologize profusely. i dont think odb ever did apologize. he is the original gangsta. and i miss him. last night my boy angel and i rocked a series of old youtube vids, shimmy shimmy ya and baby i got yer money included. solid ass shit, g's. i hope ye busts out a new record full of badassness. he should drop the morose front and just remain who he is, an unapologetic, passionate dickhole. at least then his music kicks ass.
