“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.”

Thanks I can see after that audience cam shot it was taken as more of a humorous moment - I was only going by that earlier gif which came off really obnoxious at first glance considering his past offense. I guess it was a different experience in the moment & watching live

Kim's "Who?" is everything. LOL

That awkward moment when Sir Paul is the only one dancing to ELO. laugh.png

AC/DC's opener was great, too.

Ariana looked GORGEOUS last night, and when she's singing a ballad like that one, you can actually understand what she's saying. laugh.png

Sia's performance was probably the most interesting--I will say I think it'd kind of cool that she doesn't show her face in public and that she's trying to keep her privacy.

Kanye is a piece of trash. How rude of him to be so insulting to Beck. Beck absolutely did not need to give his Grammt to Beyoncé. Her album was good but it wasn't the holy grail of music. Beck is just as much an artist and at the end of the day it's not his "fault" that he won.
