Kanye West drapes the cover of XXL quite nicely, however, I am suprised-- not shocked-- at the comments he made about the honorable Justin Timberlake.
“My biggest inspiration and biggest competition is Justin Timberlake,†the 29-year-old rapper tells XXLmagazine in its October issue, on newsstands Sept. 11. “He’s the only other person that gets an across-the-board response and respect level â€" black radio, white radio.â€
“If Justin hadn’t come out and killed the game, I can’t say that my album, singles and videos would be on the same level that they’re on,†he says. “We push each other. I look at me and Justin like Prince and Michael Jackson in their day.â€
Now y'all know I like FutureSexLoveSound. It's definitely one of if not the best cd to come out last year.... I can appreciate what dude is saying and on second thought, I guess Kanye could/would be the first rapper in a long time to think outside the box.
But wait, what... did someone mention Justin's 2006 MTV VMA opening performance?
Damn... Kanye trying to bring it like that?
Yeah but NOBODY rides JT like you Soulman!
Wuteva kanye.......stoppin braggin and keep bringin tha heat
Fuck that white boy...he played Janet out at that half-time Super Bowl and didn't even have her back when they tried to ban her......
Kanye is crazy,justin is cool but he can never touch Usher.Everything justin does has been done before by great black acts.And in reference to theses dudes being like Micheal and prince lets remember these great acts never sample they created so they could never be like these dudes because everything they do is a copy get it?
yeah being a JT fan aint the same now as it was in '02 lol. the majority of black people really dont like him so i guess it dont matter anyway.
who cares tho Kanye's album will be great & he'll shut the MTV Awards diwn as usual.

@ Izzo:
True dat! Stupid ass JT.
@ Soulman:
B'Day was the best CD released last year. And M.I.A.'s new album, Kala, is the best one released this year. Period.
Why is Khangey Toodles all on japan's dick now? Freak.
JT is aight, but to suck on it like that, ugh. Khangey is such a fanboy ass kisser anyway. Same with Wayne, Beans, he kissin everyones ass. Bitchmade downlow fag.
I think i'll save the Micheal/Prince reference for Justin and Usher.
Kanye actually short changes himself with this comparison because his success is entirely off of his own talent. Justin is as manufactured as they come. No matter how many instruments he plays, he still would be nowhere without Timbaland and Pharrell. I dare him (Double Dare him!) to attempt producing his own ish.
"Kanye West Skips to the Head of the Line to Ride Justin Timberlake's Gonads"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
LMBAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kanye is one of the ILLEST all around
.
Kanye FELL OFF HARD. I don't care what anybody says. I used to ride with him in his 1st album, then his 2nd one turned more comedy like and this one he has no lyrical content. He is living off his samples and beats. You can't name 1 hot line in any of his singles. The only line people remember is "park that motherfucker sideways" and "im way more fresher". That's lyrical? If the beats weren't hot, with hot samples he'd flop.
Who cares if he didn't have Janet's back I was just happy to see a famous nipple on regular tv.... B-day wasn't the hottest she had to re release to get the attention that she wanted. Meanwhile JTs album is still selling like crazy
@real talk
Man I cosign with you I loved the first cd because of his lyrics but now all he has hot beats and samples.
New sound,new era...vibe with me.
Fresh beats +

NOW I LOVE KANYE'S MUSIC, BUT SOMETIMES THIS DUDE IS DELUSIONAL! HE AND JUSTIN ARE BY FAR, NOT THE BEST IN THE GAME. HIM COMPARING THEM TO PRINCE AND MICHEAL? WHAT THE FUCK? JUSTIN'S CD WASN'T THE BEST TO COME OUT LAST YEAR, THAT TITLE GOES TO CHRISTINA AGUILERA AND EVERYTHING THAT JUSTIN IS DOING HAS BEEN DONE ALREADY BY FAR BETTER TALENTS. I HATE WHEN WHITE ARTISTS COME OUT AND DO SHIT THAT HAS BEEN DONE BETTER BY BLACKS, BUT THEN BLACK PEOPLE WHO SHOULD KNOW BETTER (SOULMAN) ACT AS IF THEY HAVE INVENTED THE SHIT AND RIDE THEM FOR ALL IT'S WORTH! AND LET ME JUST SAY THIS, JUSTIN OWES HIS SOLO CAREER TO TIMBALAND BECAUSE WITHOUT HIS BEATS, JUSTIN WOULD BE NOTHING! PEOPLE THINK THAT JUSTIN IS SO SOULFUL AND THAT HE IS THIS PROLIFIC SONGWRITER WHEN IN FACT TIMBALAND HELPS HIM WRITE ALOT OF HIS SONGS AND IT WAS JC CHASEZ FROM NSYNC WHO WROTE AND PRODUCED MOST OF THEIR SONGS AND WHO ACTUALLY HAS A BETTER AND BLACKER VOICE THAN JUSTIN! EVEN JUSTIN HAD TO ADMIT THIS WHEN MTV INTERVIEWED HIM ABOUT JC CHASEZS' NEW ALBUM. ALSO ROBIN THICKE IS TRUE TALENT, A SERIOUS, NATURAL ARTIST WHO CAN ACTUALLY PLAY MANY INSTRUMENTS INCLUDING THE PIANO (WHICH JUSTIN CONTINUES TO TRY AND DO). HE IS EVERYHING THAT JUSTIN WISHES HE COULD BE! DOES ANYONE EVER WONDER WHY ROBIN THICKE ALWAYS GETS FURIOUS WHEN PEOPLE TRY AND SAY THAT HE AND JUSTIN ARE ALIKE? IT'S BECAUSE JUSTIN REALLY HAS NO NATURAL TALENT! HE IS JUST COPYING THE WHITE MAN'S BLUEPRINT FOR RIPPING OFF THE BLACKS TALENT FOR SUCCESS! ALSO WHY DID TIMBALAND ABANDON GINUWINE AND START GIVING JUSTIN ALL OF THE SONGS THAT WE WOULD HAVE EXECTED GINUWINE TO SING? SIT BACK AND LISTEN TO CRY ME A RIVER, MY LOVE AND UNTIL THEN END OF TIME AND TELL ME YOU COULDN'T HEAR GINUWINE SINGING THOSE SONGS! I'M OUT!
What's wrong with having hot beats and hot samples? 98% percent of all classic hip hop joints had hot beats and hot samples!
it's the truth not riding we let jt conquer "black"radio and don't give other soul artists half a chance he has"white" radio sewed i don't care how pop or hardcore truth is most icons conquer the world not just one market niche.but don't cater to them bring them over to you and your're good!

Chorus:
na na na na na na na nana
na na na na nana
gettin jiggy wit it
repeat 3x
When did everyone start riding Kanye's balls?
I copped CD when it came out but ever since then Kanye has been going downhill with the lyrics..people are so quick to cry about Ye making real songs but their all the same...about the same things...and if their different like stronger..lyrically he ain't saying shit, his beats make the song
lyrically kanye shouldn't even be considered..but i guess when the genre is in the state it is..any half assed rapper if appreciated
I can't believe ya'll are taking Kanye seriously with this quote. You don't know him very well than, he's most likely being sarcastic with it. Especially since 50's new song has JT on it, its a subliminal diss.
Kanye sux, his albums are dookie. Just cause you hype it up doesnt mean anything. That first album "The Graduation" was basically all of his mixtape from Get Well Soon. Kanye get over yourself, sell that shyt to dem crackers that will buy anything. People who buy 50 will buy Kanye, the hood dont want that bullshyt dude. Stop lickin your own azz and wake up.
Kanye is definitely nice, but like bruh says above, it's more his beat selection and way of building albums than it is his lyrical skills. If he stays in his lane though, nobody will touch him.
as for Timberlake, I think he's tight too, but way overhyped about his skills. He's a decent singer (tell me he isn't 4th in a singing competition with with Usher, Neo, and Chris Brown), he's a heavily choreographed dancer with decent skills ( who do you take in a competition with Usher, Chris Brown, and Omarion?).
The guy is a great songwriter though, but other than that, he rode Timbaland's and Pharell's prouduction to solo superstardom. I can't say I blame him either.
I'm a justin fan and his album was one of the best to come out last year but kanye is so off with his comments and comparisons about Justin. Like soulman said he is riding Justin's gonads hard and we all know why........it's because he's white. Usher and Justin are in the same ball park but he is so quick to say justin killed the game and yes justin does have an advantage because he's white and makes urban music so he automatically gets to play on both ends of the spectrum when it comes to being a crossover hit on radio and overall. But Justin still isn't up there and kanye is also unfair for tagging him as a remanant of prince/michael when you have usher, chris brown, omarion ect. But all because Justin is white, Kanye finds a reason to put him on a high pedastal and give him extra credit. Kanye get off justins gonads already. please.
silly racist black people, when will you learn? oh right, never. first talib, now kanye... wtg guys, you can't be an ignorant, racist hoodrat forever...
Justin timberlake is a whiteboy who got rich of stealing the black man's swagger, and ya'll muthafuccas is lovin it. why is he even being mentioned? Kanye, dude you seem to love rydin white people's dick nigga, why would you even mention this lame. WTF IS WRONG WITH BLACK PEOPLE, YOU MUTHAFUCCAS JUST WOULD DO ANY THING TO BROWN NOSE THESE WHITEFOLKS, MAN THIS SHIT IS DISGUSTING
Justin timberlake is a whiteboy who got rich of stealing the black man's swagger, and ya'll muthafuccas is lovin it.
^^^^^
stealing? swagger? go back to your stoop or better yet, go get a job.
Kanye! I like what you do for hip-hop but dog!! Don't ever make a bojangles comment like that again yo. You disrecpected yourself in doing so. Let's get the facts straight my nigga. You worked your ass off to get where your at. This came a lot easier for Justin who really had this music shit handed to him. Justin is the white version of Usher and will never, in a fucking quadrillion years ever come close to him. I agree with "0731" Justin is a manufactured artist and would have never been where he is at if it wasn't for black musiicians helping to propel his career to where it is at. Kanye, man don't ever put you and him in the same boat like that Grammy Family. You are a natural artist with a natural talent for music period! No offense Justin. You are an 'ok' artist no doubt, but you making a killing off Black Music, off our culture you fuckin' vulture!!!
No offense Justin. You are an 'ok' artist no doubt, but you making a killing off Black Music, off our culture you fuckin' vulture!!!
^^^
you don't 'own' anything, you inbred monkey. jealousy is a bitch, ain't it?
Kanye has lyrics. You dumbass people think T.I has lyrics, Plies has lyrics and whack shit like Young Buck & Game have lyrics. Get real. These down south whack rappers are ruining everyones mind out here. Kanye has lyrics.
WHO DO YOU ALL CONSIDER LYRICISTS?
Stan,
Jealousy is a bitch and I think my comment rubbed you the right way cause it's the truth!! Blacks are by far the most advanced intellectual, creative and superlative people. Now you go run along Stan my boy and put that in your meth pipe and smoke it you envious caveman. Don't you got a little sister or something to go have incest with? We talking hip-hop here homie not ignorant caveman racist white jibberish.
LOL @ Epic Records... thank you for proving my point! ever been out of your neighborhood?
and obviously, it was *i* who struck a nerve when you have to come back with that half-assed attempt at trying to be... intimidating i guess? lol @ the meth crack tho, good one... too bad ya'll been hooked on basically the same shit (crack) for a lot longer...
SATAN: OH MY BAD I MEAN STAN.....
Check me out... White people have stolen everything from blacks and I mean everything, we invented math, built the pyramids, you stole us from our country to build america by the sweat of our backs. I could go on an on. Check me out, I'mma let your little faggot ass racist comment ryde, but just know, the original man was black, some of the tribes relocated to the cockless, oh my bad, I mean, cuacous mountains in upper russia, and that's when white people appeared. So basically we made you whiteboy!!! WHO'S YA DADDY!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHAAAA
YOU KNOW WHAT I NOTICED ALSO, IS WHITE PEOPLE IS REAL BOLD WHEN THE HIDING AND SAYIN SLICK SHIT. BUT IF YOU WERE TO CONFRONT THIS GUY HE'D PROBABLY SHIT HIMSELF!!!!! DUDE YOUR A FAGGOT. A STAN FO REAL.
Soulman, I know comments pay the bills, but whenever you mention a hip hop artist on your soul blog it gets spammed with ignorance.
So basically we made you whiteboy!!!
^^^^^^^^^
"you", or people who lived before you that you try to claim credit for their accomplishments? hmmm.. *think* about that for a minute, if the weed will allow it.. and seriously, tyrone, trying to sound 'greasey' or whatever it is you hoodrats are into these days, on a blog... good job.
"Check me out, I'mma let your little faggot ass racist comment ryde"
^^^
what would you do if you *didn't* let it 'ryde' (lol what a faggot you are)? come beat me up? lol hoodrat mentality strikes again!
Stan,
You are very welcome and no offense, but you are about as bright as a cockroach. So it seems that the point I made about you being an envious caveman and having incest with your sister is true!! Stan, you have a thick skull and a severly underdeveloped brain!!! I can't wait till you reap what you say and someone big and bad decides to break your fucking nose!!!
oh and i did pretty much put you in your place with that crack comment, right? personally i feel bad for both the black and white 'communities' that have been destroyed by meth/crack but to try to use it as a 'diss' towards white people in general when your 'people' have been smoking the glass dick for YEARS before most crackers knew what meth was.. pathetic.
come break my nose, tyrone, you fucking inbred hoodrat.. put down the 'fortay', dead the 'blunt' and come do it. pussy.
anyway, enough feeding the trolls, maybe that'll hold him till his 'check' comes in...
why is there always so much hate for justin? dude is makin some good music, futuresex lovesounds was hot as fuck! i understand that whites have been swagger jackin for mad long but your favorite MAINSTREAM r&b artist isnt doing any better either... its only more blue eyed soul artists comin out... SOME of these commercial r&b ppl need to get off that "shake ya ass" shit and get back to basics cuz the blue eyed soul movement has only just begun....
Stan stay off drugs and quit reading ignorant racist propopagana dildo! Your thick skull and malnurished brain are a result of inbreeding amongst your mammy and her downsyndrome uncle!!! You are beneath me, you are a cockroach. I step on cockroaches. I can't wait till someone decides to crush your fucking skull with a blunt object or break your fucking nose, you cunt pussy!!!
kanye is sayin the truth that justin album was the best R&B/Pop album last year....and kanye album is goin to push the envelope in a big way in Rap...by the way check out this funny online sitcom:"The Way We Live"
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=2054341975
stan the man,
your racist comments and attepts at provoking people in this blog make you look retarded.
anyways, kanye is just hyping like he always does, justin isnt THAT talented at all. he just got the right chemistry with the right producers. Thats all you need these days to become BIG.
LOL @ Stan.
What an idiot if i've ever seen one. Some one must of turned his ass down, now he has to come to a blog about music to spew all that hatred about black people. It's truly sad. But the people who responded to him with racist and prejudice comments should'nt have given him the attention that his parents obviously couldn't give him.
Stan, if he is white, is the devil and that is why he is here. Remember, kkkrakas love Justin, Britney, Elvis and Eminem because they are White versions of Black people. These whites make white people feel like they can be just as cool as us. Notice how whites act any time another whites person takes on a trait known only to us.
From our style to our look they covet it and hate us because they can never have it. Have pity on Stan because he is weak white boy looking to feel good about himself by downing you because he know that he and his people have accomplished nothing in this in reality that didn't come from riding our backs.
This is why whites try so hard to dominate and oppress us. They don't wanna come up against us because history has shown we will overtake them every time. Whenever the white man steps aside and lets the Black man shine he always outshines him.
Stan wishes he was Black- he is after all among us. Why? If we are so little why is he here? He is here to hang around us in hopes of gaining our style and spirit. Continue to curse this dog like the b!tch he is Black folks and never stop telling the devil the truth to his face.
THEY ARE JEALOUS OF US
