News: More Kanye West in Toronto Drama

Ok, I've been hearing nuff things about Kanye's recent trip to Toronto and how he has been getting on. Well it seems like thats not the end of it. I posted early the video from his interview at FLOW and how he walked out on them, but now I get this email from Dr. Jay who is Canada's biggest soca DJ letting the world know about Kanye's recent drama at a club he was at in Toronto.

Yes Kanye really does need to humble himself, however I doubt anybody is really going to care about what he's done. Look at what R. Kelly's done and the man still sellin nuff records. In the end when the music is good enough and the US is backing him nobody cares what he did in Toronto.

Them americans probably even laughing at us. He'll probably even come back to Toronto and play a sold out show, because of who he will have with him.

I just say leave the man and let him do his thing... the more we hype up the incident the more publicity he gets.

Anyway's here's Jay's email about the incident. Search my past posts to see the video.

PS... should have picked a better word than kakahole.. :)

Can you believe Kanye West?

Okay, I've read interviews with him in magazines and
seen his outbursts on TV when he didn't win an
award...but this guy gets the "kakahole of the month"
award for his behavior at the club this past Sunday
night...

to make a long story short, he was hired to be a
special guest host at METRO and he apparently gave
strict orders that he only wants to hear Hip Hop while
he's in the club...

okie dokie buddy...no scene...he doesn't get the award
for that cuz in my opinion, if the promoters are paying
him a big set of money and are caving into his demands,
then you can't blame the artist (no matter how ignorant
that it was)...but I can and will blame Kanye for the
"kakahole-ish" behavior he displayed...

Lil' Jon, Ludacris, Mos Def and Lil' Scrappy were all
inside the club enjoying themselves...this I saw with
my own two eyes...those artists and some Toronto Argos,
Mo Pete from the Toronto Raptors and a whole set of
ladies were in the VIP just chillin....

Then Kanye took the mic and said that he felt
disrespected cuz he was in the club for 45 minutes and
hadn't heard one of his songs yet...he proceeded to say
that he rules the radio and that he will never come
back to this establishment again...now mind you, I'm
standing just a few feet away from him and this guy
just had the most pompous look on his face..

He continues on how he felt disrespected and then the
DJ on the other mic tells him that its still early (I
think it was around bar closing time) and he has to
wait for the tribute...they start to rinse a set of
Kanye West tracks but the kakahole grabs his people and
exits thru a back door...

None of the other artists seemed to care about his
departure and neither did the crowd...perhaps this is
all a publicity stunt cuz his album is coming out and
any publicity is good publicity, right? For me though,
Kanye needs to humble himself and perhaps then people
will pay him the respect he feels he deserves...this
Sunday, the very first track on SOCA THERAPY will be
Maximus Dan's "Be Humble" in honour of the "kakahole of
the month".
