Kanye West Says, ‘Britney Spears Is Not Important’

There’s nothing quite like a full-grown Black man who behaves like a spoiled White girl. Battling rapper Kanye West continued his smear campaign against Britney Spears and MTV on Ellen early Friday.
“I just felt like she wasn’t ready and I felt like they had to get their ratings. … It just shows you it’s not a black and white thing; it’s a money thing,” the rapper said. “I felt bad for her too. I felt bad for everyone involved.”
“Someone had to be at that practice and be like, ‘Wow. This is not good.’ All the lip-syncing and everything.” “I mean, that performance, had it been pulled off perfectly, still wouldn’t have been up to par to start off the MTV Awards.”
“[MTV] didn’t give me the opportunity to rock the way I wanted to rock,” he told DeGeneres, calling his five VMA nominations but no wins a “slap in the face.”
“I told the guy at MTV, ‘There’s only a couple things important in music this year: Umbrella, Amy Winehouse,’ ” he said. “it’s not just about me. Britney Spears is not important in music, but she’s important to the tabloids and stuff like that.”
