In 2005, Oprah confronted hip hop megastar Kanye West about his reputation for being 'arrogant' and 'out of control'

His personality and success has always rubbed people the wrong way

Obnoxious at award shows, very self-aggrandizing. Was disrespectful to Taylor Swift, beloved pop girl. Called Bush racist and is black so automatically disliked by a certain demographic.

Yeah.

kanye must drive middle-class brits up the wall

i love it

Ye looks older here than he does now lmao

bro was just an outspoken black man in America, now he's a outspoken black man in America who gives no f***s

it has almost always been racism. the other part was because kanye was also a little annoying

once he attacked sweet white blonde taylor swift they came at him hard

glastonbury thing was partly because was traditionally rock music no rap but that was also rooted in racism. there was a petition from some weirdo that wasn’t even going.

before 2016 includes 2005

Taylor VMAs, and George Bush comments

Ppl that didn’t like him being so cocky

never seen this before

white nerds were jealous seeing such an outspoken person

The ego, funny because its the same reason i love him

they been hating on ye since forever! they only trick u to make you think his latest shenanigans is what made them hate him but they already were hating i know

soon as they like u make them unlike u

ikr. such dumb reasons compared to what they have now. and now it seems like it’s just too easy and they don’t even hate on him lol

Self confidence and self belief is seen as ‘egotiscal, arrogance’, both negative traits.
If you’re amazing at something, one of the best in the world at it even, you’re supposed to sit down, shut up, be humble and entertain us. That’s what certain people think.

him singing bohemian Rhapsody while sick is a common reaosn

Dating and marrying Kim Kardashian . Many people consider reality TV to be the downfall of America (lol) so when he wifed her up he became associated with that reputation

People were absolutely fuming about that lmfaoooooo he just did a little sing along with the crowd and middle age white ppl went into cardiac arrest

the song is f***ing ass anyway
