Shirley Manson Blasts “Petty” Kanye West for Beck Grammys Insult: “Grow Up”
Shirley Manson thinks Kanye West’s Grammys stunt was, well, garbage. After the “Only One” singer rushed the stage when Beck beat out Beyonce for Album of the Year — later telling E! that the “Blue Moon” singer should “respect artistry” and give his award to Queen Bey — Manson took to Facebook to blast his “petty” actions.

Yep.. Being a spoiled brat.
6ynth God’s tweet apparently made him an instant Twitter celebrity. His message is true though and I’m glad that it came from someone who’s black. It got “cred” now. ;-)

I kept thinking of this l’il ditty as I read this thread…
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
The connotations wearing my nerves thin
Could it be semantics generating the mess we’re in?
I understand that language breeds stereotype
But what’s the explanation for the malice, for the spite?
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
I wasn’t brought here, I was born
Circumsized, categorized, allegiance sworn,
Does this mean I have to take such shit
For being fairskinned? No!
I ain’t a part of no conspiracy,
I’m just you’re average Joe.
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Represents everything I hate,
The soap shoved in your mouth to cleanse the mind
The vast majority of sheep
A buttoned collar, starched and bleached
Constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows
They’re so fuckin’ ordinary white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
We’re better off this way
Say what you’re gonna say
So go ahead and label me
An asshole cause I can
Accept responsibility, for what I’ve done
But not for who I am
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white
Don’t call me white, Don’t call me white

i wrote too much about kanye and then realized it had already been said and really, his actions do a better job of summing him up.
