FTR: Beck doesn’t share any of these guys sentiments…
βI was just so excited he was coming up,β Beck said to US Weekly after the show. βHe deserves to be on stage as much as anybody. How many great records has he put out in the last five years, right?β Beck agreed with Kanye that BeyoncΓ© deserved to win. βAbsolutely,β he said. βI thought she was going to win. Come on, sheβs Beyonce!β When asked about Westβs implication that Beckβs isnβt a true artist, he replied, βYou canβt please everybody, man. I still love him and think heβs genius. I aspire to do what he does.β
If anything, he’s probably grateful. Sales of Morning Phase have spiked 1342 percent.
