Kanye fails to connect with heartland




The haterade for 'Ye's "Idol" gig is permeating, as evidenced by this stupid column; which, with due respect, misses the mark.

"American Idol" is, first and foremost, a celebration of American pop. Kanye West is at pop's epicenter. That's it.

To the "he sings badly" movement, I'd like objectively remind everyone that he doesn't lay claim to being a competent singer; his robotic, hollow Auto Tune is but a narrative device he embeds into his minimalist beats, and this sums to make ART ninety times more interesting than everything every "Idol" contestant has ever laid down in the booth.

When kanye started rapping, he got same response (albeit more intelligent and far less gay) from the hip hop heads. "he's a producer! he can't rap!" and it's true, he can't. he can't sing either.

but people love it when he does either of them. and, let's be perfectly honest, the only reason people hate on Kanye is because he's made it big. If Kanye were still a no-name producer on the Roc, people would be big-upping (bigging-up?) him everytime his name showed up in the press.
