The only three words that are going through my head are, 'the', 'fuck', and 'what'. Not necessarily in that order. I'm sorry, is his name an alias for, Robert Plant, Kerry King, Dave Mustaine, or maybe Corey Taylor? I don't think so, he's not a rock star, he's the opposite of a rock star. What the fuck, I mean really. What's next, is Dave Grohl gonna announce that he is biggest rapper on the planet? Or maybe Carol Alt will declare herself the ugliest model on the planet.
Kanye has a massive ego. We've seen that many times. IOW, yawn. No big deal. Tomorrow he'll find some other thing to rave about.
kanye sucks that's just me
Kayne is actually brilliant - sadly, he's also an egotistical douchebag and it's hard to get past that at times.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
Who the hell is Kanye West? I seriously don't know who he is.
I'm guessing he doesn't have a steel guitar and a fiddle player in his band.
Can Kayne just sit down and shut the f%ck up please! Ugh. . .I don't even know the guy and he gets on my nerves with everything he says.

Now, Kanye I'm really happy for y'all and I'm gonna let you finish but you're not even a rock artist... You make shitty hip hop.
All that was said above but in 2012 his earning were $35 million. What is this world coming to?
Huh! There must have been a lot of deaths today that I haven't heard of yet!!
A little self confidence is a good thing.
The same GQP demanding we move on from January 6th, 2021 is still doing audits of the November 3rd, 2020 election.
He may not even be the biggest rock star in his own neighborhood...and maybe not the biggest celebrity in his own house...
I would have thought biggest douche.
Dude, don't you know that he's a GENIUS!?! Jk
All joking aside though, I really can't say I dislike him just because he's such a big goofball that it's funny.
I couldn't name a single Kanye West song.
Ok Mr. Kardashian I think you are just an attention whore
Purveyor of Poetry & Porn
People say and do things all the time to get attention, and there's an old adage about there being no such thing as bad publicity...and now here we are, talking about him in a forum thread, as are millions of others on the internet...so, he got exactly what he wanted...
Really? I think Mick, David, Freddie, Joe, Bono, Paul, Kurt, John, Eric, Johnny, would have something to say. So would my ladies Janis, Chrissy, Stevie, Suzie, Billie, Diana, Loretta, Dolly...
As far as I can tell, he's right- he is the biggest rock star.
Now, if we're going to say "well, literally speaking, he doesn't produce 'rock music', so he's not the biggest rock star", then I guess that's one way of looking at it. But a) the term 'rock star' generally means something broader than a specific music genre (Madonna is and was a massive rock star, even though she's never 'rocked'), and b) there's no disputing the fact that hip-hop has replaced 'rock music' in terms of popularity and cultural influence. Hip Hop, which makes up or directly influences most of the top 40 today, is what Rock used to be, and Kanye is it's biggest and arguably most talented personality.
If you took ten typical fans of pop music in 2013, I'm not sure two of them could pick Eric Clapton out of a lineup, and most wouldn't know who Freddie Mercury was.
This from someone that named his child North West?
