Kanye West Unleashes Rant Against The Media
. "Welcome to today's news, ladies and gentlemen," West told the audience. "We got Americans getting killed on TV, we have kids getting killed every week in Chicago, we have unarmed people being killed by police officers and we have Kanye West with an ice cream cone." He specifically called out Today's Matt Lauer by name, trying to set him up for when video of the rant, he feels, will be played on the show tomorrow. "Don't try to force me into some, like, fake apology or something like last time I was on the show," he said. "I want you to just run the video that everyone's talking about where I so-called scream and everything. I want you to run that, right? Since it's such big media press news and everything." He went on to ask the attendees if they hear his music on the radio, and if his songs made them feel better - despite maybe saying "offensive s**t" from time to time. "This is rap f**king music," he said. "This is real music. This is real expression. This is real artistry. An artist's career doesn't happen in a cycle of one week of news. An artist career happens in a lifetime, and if you're a true artist, you're willing to die for what you believe in." Read more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
