have collided in an interesting way in the following article (no mention about Obama but the President has made his viewpoint quite clear on Kanye's actions). Below is a quote from the article about the Kanye-swift MTV controvesy:
Heaven forbid someone does something spontaneous on MTV, gets out of their seat, starts thinking about quality over popularity, steps outside the predetermined schedule and exhibits some vestige of rock ’n’ roll swagger for just a couple seconds.
Apparently, Kanye was unaware that the award stage is sacred. So were some others. (See: Rage Against the Machine’s Tim Commerford, the Beastie Boys’ Adam Yauch and that “Soy Bomb” dude.) I don’t remember any such vitriol then. Not from fans, not from network execs, not from stars.
I should point that I do not agree with the author of the article but I like the article nonetheless. Perhaps the author's underlying main point makes more than a little sense.
