Kanye West Uses Blog to Strike Back

by Christine Whitney on June 28, 2008 at 10:28 AM

Kanye, Kanye, Kanye. He has a blog, and he uses it to talk back. First there was the EW thing, and now this: a proclamation by the Daft Punk coverer in response to a recent debacle at the jam-bandy Bonnaroo Festival.

Said incident occurred during the annual nouveau-hippie drug orgy music mega-fest in Tennessee, where Kanye's performance began two hours late. Apparently the delay in his show was due to technical difficulties, and was NOT KW's fault, but the magic mushrooms were wearing off and the trust fund hippies didn't care. Someone had to pay! So they took their hempen vengeance out on Kanye, pelting the stage with beer cans and other grimy wares and chanting such mantras as "Kanye Sucks!"

In a Tuesday post, Kanye expressed his rage: "This Bonnaroo thing is the worst insult I've ever had in my life...this is the maddest I ever will be." He also apologized for not being able to "2 give the performance I wanted to," and assured fans that HE CARES about them.

Don't take it personal Kanye...Everyone knows those Bonnaroo kids have ingrown beards that poke back into their brains and cloud their judgment. We still like you. [Source: AP]
