Kanye West recently performed for VH1′s Storytellers, and during the three hour shoot he made some choice comments that producers decided to edit out. Including a plea to back off Chris Brown. Reuters reports:
A little later, West asked the crowd, “Can’t we give Chris a break? … I know I make mistakes in life.” He was referring to R&B singer Chris Brown, who was arrested on the night of the Grammys on suspicion of beating his girlfriend Rihanna.
In the same context, West earned loud applause with his declaration: “Michael Jackson, amazing. Michael Phelps, amazing … He’s a real f—in’ person; he makes mistakes,” referring to the champion swimmer’s recent bong pipe brouhaha.
VH1 has cleaned up those comments a bit, and it also included West’s less-popular follow-up observation: “O.J. Simpson, amazing. Is he not? What he did, when he did, what he did. Was he not amazing though?”
I love how he lumped Michael Phelps in there because taking a hit off a bong is the exact same thing as beating your girlfriend, molesting children and killing your wife. I mean, who among us didn’t look at the Rihanna photo and immediately say “Damn. It’s Michael Phelps all over again!”? Frankly, I don’t see how you can tell the two apart they’re so alike.

This guy is the picture of a dumb nigger. I wish someone would smash his face with a ball peen hammer. They can bury him next to his fatass mother. Fuck off Gayne.

Kanye West is nothing but used anal douche water.
Richard McBeef | February 27, 2009 at 3:45 pm
Kanye West is an autofellating douchebag asshole.
Phelps lungs | February 27, 2009 at 3:46 pm
Kanye is a waste of space. Stop stealing other people’s music and dissapear already
ENZO | February 27, 2009 at 3:47 pm
Last sentence has a typo: “I don’t know how you can tell the two *important* they’re so alike. Substitute ‘apart’ for ‘important.’
Thanks!
Richard McBeef | February 27, 2009 at 3:48 pm
I spacedocked Kanye’s dead mom.
Walter | February 27, 2009 at 3:49 pm
When is the douchbag going to shut up and go away.
Paris Hilton | February 27, 2009 at 3:50 pm
does he have mouth herpes? look at pics 1 and 2. that’s herpes if i have ever seen it on my pussy.
Beav | February 27, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Is that a clitoris on his lip?
Deacon Jones | February 27, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Man, what is it about black people NEVER taking responsibility for anything?
I’m not even trying to be racist about this , just pointing out the obvious.
There’s a reason 97% of the Navy SEALS are either white or latino. It seriously must be genetic.
morgan | February 27, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Shut up Kanye, if you shut up I promise I’ll “let you be great”.
"Chuck" Darwin | February 27, 2009 at 3:55 pm
I find this telling. In arabic societies it is natural to batter women. In Africa it is common practice to destroy a woman’s genitals to “keep them in line” to prohibit sexual pleasure so that they don’t stray from their owner or husband. Here black men absolutely massacre their women as well.
I do not believe that all species are capable of universally cohabitating. Nor do I believe the same of sub-species or races.
This male is obviously overpaid and should disappear back into the ghetto.
Amazing.
Danklin24 | February 27, 2009 at 3:56 pm
This guy has no fucking clue what he’s talking about. He tries so hard to sound intelligent and get people behind him but the world just laughs at him. He really needs to just give it up. Yes Kanye, OJ was amazing. He played shitty football, stared in those shitty Naked Gun movies, then decided to kill his ex wife and her lover. That guy deserves a fucking medal, and so do you Kanye. Gold star!

Hooooooowwwwddy Hoooo!

Frankly, I don’t see how you can tell the two important they’re so alike.
APART = IMPORTANT…
Jrz | February 27, 2009 at 3:59 pm
So smoking weed is the same as molesting kids, killing two people and beating the fuck out of a woman.
I think it’s time for the guillotine fairy to pay Kanye a visit.
Jrz | February 27, 2009 at 4:01 pm
PS nice bowtie. he looks like Steve Urkel’s developmentally challenged brother.
Blah Girls! | February 27, 2009 at 4:05 pm
Sorry Kanye but hitting RiRi is NOT an OK mistake to make!!!
Smee | February 27, 2009 at 4:07 pm
This man makes me sick to my stomach. The definition of fake. He is a fire that is fed by Hollywood producers and MONEY. He is a complete idiot.
Lowlands | February 27, 2009 at 4:07 pm
Hmm,i’ve more on my mind than saving careers of individuals.But doesn’t O.J. have his break now?
Vince Lombardi | February 27, 2009 at 4:08 pm
Can anyone who combines a bowtie and denim be taken seriously? Even Louis Farrakhan just slapped his hand to his forehead over that picture….
Mike | February 27, 2009 at 4:11 pm
We also need to give Marion Barry, William Jefferson, Roland Burris, Wesley Snipes, and BO a break. I’m sure there are a couple dozen thousand in prison that we need to give a break to as well.
Darth | February 27, 2009 at 4:13 pm

Danyel | February 27, 2009 at 4:15 pm

Jibbly Biggins | February 27, 2009 at 4:16 pm
Yes, by all means let’s give thugs who hit, bite, stab, and kill women a break.
What’s that West – you didn’t mean breaking their noses?
weaselspeed | February 27, 2009 at 4:17 pm

norton | February 27, 2009 at 4:22 pm
Another talentless asshole “celebrity” with a Napoleanic complex opening their tiny fucking mouth – spewing forth their opinions; which none of us care about.
Lowlands | February 27, 2009 at 4:22 pm
I don’t believe Chris Brown is an evil guy.But stupid,yes.Rihanna and the folks will decide if they forgive him or not.Is this democrazy or what!?
me me | February 27, 2009 at 4:23 pm
Hey he left someone out. How about the doctor that performed cosmetic surgery on his mom? “Amazing. He’s a real f—in’ person; he makes mistakes” -
everyone | February 27, 2009 at 4:28 pm

pavmentaled | February 27, 2009 at 4:28 pm

Darth | February 27, 2009 at 4:34 pm
I would hit chris brown
Mama Pinkus | February 27, 2009 at 4:41 pm
With all due respect Mr. West (none), taking a bong hit is one thing; pedophilia, domestic violence and murder are, well, other things.
CaptainMorgan | February 27, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Kanye West is suffering from Bigdoperetardedmuthafuckaliosis.
Can’t we just all give Kanye a break?
kitty | February 27, 2009 at 4:42 pm
so if someone is amazing at someone does that mean they get to break the law and not go to jail for it….
kitty | February 27, 2009 at 4:43 pm
whoops if someone is amazing at something*
mai-tai | February 27, 2009 at 4:46 pm
You’re stupid. He was referring to different mistakes people have made, not the severity of the mistake. Use the other half of your brain!
McFeely Smackup | February 27, 2009 at 4:47 pm
Kanye is a pretty talented guy, but thinking (and talking) on his feet is not one of his skills. His poor mother, a college professor, must have been humiliated at his idiocy and inability to speak coherently.
I’d also like to take the opportunity to point out that he grew up in an upper middle class community, he’s basically the Will Smith of rap (who himself used to be the Will Smith of rap).
