Jay-Z discusses Kanye West, Taylor Swift incident
Jay-Z is breaking his silence regarding his friend Kanye West’s outburst during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech during the MTV Video Music Awards.
In an interview with BBC Radio, Jay-Z said Kanye has always been passionate, but he was still rude to Taylor.
Excerpts from the interview are posted below.
“He’s just a super-passionate person, and of course it was rude because it was Swift’s moment, but that’s the way he really felt. But he’s been that passionate from his first record.”
“He used to jump on tables. I was trying to make the first Blueprint, he’s jumping on tables, rapping, and I’m like, ‘Yo, not now.’ That was just him. He’s always been that passionate.”
“I told him I think it was rude, and that he has to watch his passion. At the end of the day, we’re going to celebrate him for his passion more than vilify him for it because his passion, which caused him to make Graduation and all these great records, is the same thing that causes him to step out of line sometimes. So as he grows, he has to learn how to balance that. And he’ll learn that in years to come. That passion right there, that wasn’t fake or staged. It was how he really felt, and it was just inappropriate. It wasn’t fair to Taylor.”
“I mean, it’s an awards show, really, and I think it’s a bit blown out. He’s on the cover of every paper, he didn’t kill anybody. Nobody got harmed. I don’t think he should lay low, I think he should go on tour and have a brilliant career. It’s an awards show.”
I agree with Jay-Z in paragraph above. Yes, it was rude and disrespecful, but no one was killed or physically harmed. He didn’t beat up anyone like Chris Brown did.
But, hopefully Kanye will listen to Jay-Z and learn to control his “passion.”
Meanwhile, Kanye is preparing to go on tour this fall and winter with pop singer Lady Gaga. The tour kicks off Nov. 10 in Phoenix. Click here for a list of the tour dates.

I am very disapponted in Wests’ behavior last week. I am a fan of his and has been a fan since he came out. I have been a fan of Jay-z since Reasonable Doubt.I realize that kanye has been doing this over seas for years now. I am so unhappy with him and the fact that he thinks an apology will make it all go away. As a woman, I felt that nothing will ever change or justify what he did. In the end it was rude and insensitive to a young woman who has a great talent. No one even mentioned the fact that Taylor Swift is the 1st country artist to EVER receive a “moon man.” It was totally out of line and I find myself not liking him at the moment, and doubt if I ever support him or his music again. Sorry Jay, I am still YOUR biggest Fan!!!
