Who is this Nyle guy? His song, "Chicken Leg" is the closest thing to a legit Pharcyde song I've come across since Runnin'.

All I can really say is I don't really like pop and therefore am not really in a position to evaluate the merits. I actually thought the song was kind of boring. But, honestly, I can barely distinguish Beyonce from Rihanna from Lady Gaga. For those who appreciate this music more and can better judge the artistry of Beyonce v. Beck, does Kanye have a point? Was it disrespectful to give the award to Beck? I love Beck, but don't like his latest (not crazy about Sad Beck) so I don't have an emotional dog in this fight. Or is Kanye just a deranged agitator? Or brilliant propagandist? Or both?

The latter. His brilliant advertisement for Autotune, "Only One," won for Best Product Placement During an Awards Show.

No idea. Here is what he did before he apparently disappeared and reappeared with Chicken Leg:

He seems like a good fit with Tommy Boy.

(In other words, a pretty good album.)

Mutations. Never gets old. Overlooked gem.

Yeah. That's why you're watching that video. For the comedy.

Yeah. Saw that today. Haven't seen anything else by him.

Oh please, this does not even make the top 50 dirtiest rap videos I've seen in the last 6 months. But it's hella surreal.

The only musician who fills that role for me is David Byrne, and even he is only batting .500 on his recommendations.

Saddest was AC/DC's need to employ a teleprompter. They've had to do it for the Dylan and Leonard Cohen covers in the past, but now their own stuff?

A friend once described this song as describing every hangover he ever had:

Stop hating, it's art. It's like one man's vision of what would happen if a vat of LSD exploded in a birthday-themed strip club. Or something.

My favorite part is the part where Kanye nearly loses his balance on the fake bike he’s pretending to ride. It’s like a metaphor for the experience of being Kanye.

Thanks for turning me on to this. Usually I just click on whatever David Byrne has favorited so I might have missed this.
