Kanye West Sucking Up to Beyonce, Says She’s Greater Than Tina Turner

Kanye West has been bad mouthing Beyonce all over the place in favor of Rihanna. Now he’s singing a different tune probably because Jay Z stepped to him.

During a press conference over in New Zealand today, Kanye West said this about Beyonce:

“Nobody really wants to recognize that Beyoncé is a f*cking living legend and that she is just as great, if not greater, than the artists that we had in the past…that she’s probably greater than Tina Turner.”

Greater than Tina Turner?? What is he smoking?

    I think people misunderstood Kanye.

    Rihanna did push Beyonce, I believe that is what he said. That doesn’t take away from the fact that Beyonce is lengendary.

    Beyonce is legendary because she has already left a big mark in the entertainment industry that other singers are striving to do.

    Tina Turner is legendary too.

    Tina Turner is a legend! Beyonce is not!

    There is no comparison…sorry!

    Y’all remember Tupac used to pop off at the mouth about a lot of absurd shchitt, and do absurd things, then he got killed. Kanye should chill out.

    But he’s got yall all up in a tizzy and smelling his nuts everytime he makes a move. It’ like he’s the puppet master and you are all on his strings…

    All things comments are so very contradicting.

    Everyone says that Sandra is hating Beyonce, yet Kanye just said something nice about her and everyone sort of is like blah. I said that she is a legend, and now…people are screaming she is not.

    You guys are tooooo funny. This is what makes my day. lol

    I think she will be a legend, maybe. I don’t think she is one now. I think you have to withstand the test of time. She is still in the height of her career which really just exploded in 2003. Destiny’s Child was a good group,but come on now. I think her performances are amazing, but her music is often mediocre.

    aduvalprincess says:

    I think Beyonce is a legend. There isn’t anyone in the world who doesn’t know who she is. Top selling cd’s & tours, million dollar movies (Austin Powers), clothing line…I respect her hustle. In my opinion, Angela Bassett made Tina a legend. She turned her back on her “r&b” roots and went to rock n roll after all those beat downs by Ike. But I have respect for both of them. Oh, and I love Kanye…he is a genius.

    And did anybody else see this press conference? Kanye has been acting very strange lately, he talks like he’s zoned out. I didn’t even make it to that quote, it was just too much. I like his new CD though.

    Don’t get it twisted…I love me some Beyonce!

    But, I’m not gonna haul off and say she is legendary. She WILL BE…SHE has to pay her dues.

    Look at how people still freak out over Elvis and Marvin Gaye? Europeans still freaking out over Michael Jackson. You have to change the game. She hasn’t done that, yet.

    Love the K Man, but he’s been trippin alot lately. Needless to say that I don’t think Beyonce is a legend, nor greater than Tina. I guess we’ll see though…if Bey is still commanding the money, attention and fans when she gets to be Tina’s age, then we can revisit the situation.

    Hey Divine! How about Madonna, Tupac, Biggie, Aretha, Patti, Whitney, Bob Marley…hmm…who else? They’re so many white ones…Liza, Barbara, Judy…LOL!!! =)

  44. 44
    shintrell says:

    @ Terika Thanks. And I like Beyonce, I don’t like this latest cd, but I like her in general. I just don’t agree that fame and fortune now equals being a legend 50 years from now. I think her and Alicia will be though.

    #42, Terry .W, I never paid them any attention. But when I looked them up I do recognize their faces.

    When I was younger, I never cared to remember their names cause I don’t listen to their music at all. Mick Jagger and Bono are not for me.

    I don’t think Patti Labelle is a legend either.

    @ missdallas

    I don’t think Toni has done anything revolutionary or changed people lives with her singing. Her music isn’t timeless, it’s mediocre RnB music to me. She was relevant for about 5 years and then no cared about her. . .no legend in my book!

    adding my two cents…toni braxton is NOT a legend…better yet, why would someone thing she is?

    She used to blow shyt away (like Christina STILL does) but now she kinds hums her way through it. Last time I heard her live was on SNL and she was AWFUL. I missed her on the American Music awards…

LMAO.

  116. 116

    Huh? Video hoes started the booty craze?

    No ma’am!

    having azz became part of popular culture when Jlo came on the scene.

    Video btiches don’t appeal to the masses let alone have THAT much of an influence on the industry.

    Video hoes are popular with black dudes. That aint shiet..

The thing is, it’s like, what happened?? We know Michael lost his mind, Toni went off to have babies, and Whitney was cracked out…but what is Mimi’s excuse?!?! Why did she go from blowing shyt out to the hum queen? Did her voice just go away? What happened?!?! LOL!!

    bloggergirlz says:

    yep…video girls…they had the urban crowd on lock and people starting noticing…don’t forget a lot of the artists were getting play on bet and mtv…therefore the popular culture noticed, even if they weren’t interested at the time

    someone looked at j lo one day, noticed she had a$$ and the rest is history…i agree w/ you though…j lo appealed to more people who looked “like” her (or somewhat like her)…before j lo white folks were talking about their butt was too big although they didn’t have one to begin with! you cannot forget about video girls…they played a big part as well (whether or not people want to believe it)…

    @ Blogger

    That’s true, but it seems like it’s only been in the last two albums where she’s been croakin it up on stage. Good albums, but a mess live.

    I agree completely with what ya’ll are sayin about J-Ho!!! She was the first one they could pretend was white and put her on a pedestal. Then there was the whole Latin sensation in the US that went on for a minute… You can’t think J-Lo without thinking “azz.” Even when she’s 80 they’ll be looking at and talking about her azz…

    Who would play Diana Ross in her bio-pic movie?
    ——————————————————–
    BEYONCE BASICALLY ALREADY DID, DEENA WAS A FICTICOUS ACCOUNT OF DIANA. I GREW UP WATCHING AND LISTENING TO DIANA SHE HAD HER DEAD ON. YES DIANA IS A LEGEND, BUT HER VOICE IS AND WAS NOTHING SPECTACULAR. SURE I LOVE HER MUSIC. BUT HE VOICE WAS SILL NOT THAT GREAT. SOMEONE MENTIONED PEOPLE FALLING AND FAINTING OVER MICHEAL AND OTHERS. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ns3GN5VAcVc IS SHE A LIVING LEGEND, IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHO YOU ASK. IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE VIDEO, WHO ELSE OUT RIGHT NOW IS DOING IT TO HER MAGNITUDE, AND MAKING THE MONEY TO SHOW FOR IT.

    TINA TURNER IS A LEGEND, DID YOU GUYS KNOW TINA TURNER HAS BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED AS ONE OF THE WORLD’S MOST POPULAR ENTERTAINERS, BIGGEST-SELLING MUSIC ARTISTS OF ALL TIME AND THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE ROCK ARTIST EVER WITH RECORD SALES NEARLY 200 MILLION COPIES WORLWIDE AND HAVING SOLD MORE CONSERT TICKETS THAN ANY OTHER SOLO PERFORMER IN MUSIC’S HISTORY.

    Kwal-

    I used to love Mariah. I have all her cd’s too except this latest one and Glitter. Something about her irks me. I has undeniable talent but she has some lose screws and they effect her music.

    The first single of this latest cd was pure comedy. I thought to myself, why is this 40 yr old women talkin about “touch my body” and sh!t. That song was so juvenile, I could so hear Jessica Simpson sing that song!

LMAO.

    i think after she have a baby and is happy she will come with the strength. cause that last cd was garbage@@@

  144. 144

    Pisces…you gon have to send me a track listing my Mom and Dad would really love that!!

    Mariah’s last Cd was a waste of the earth’s resources. But, I love “OLD mariah”…and FLY like a bird Mariah.

    But, she is perpetually 21. Thinking cleavage and short skirts is the only way to be sexy. I don’t relate to that. Her surgically altered stomach gives me the creeps!

    Jlo’s azz helped her get to the next level. Period! When the high end designers that dominate the market were flocking to her, the Fat lady sang ’cause she took over for a minute. Her acting is better thab her singing..

    My thing is, I’m a collector…so I collect music and then oftentimes, don’t even listen to it!! =) I’m not married, no kids, no man, nathan! So I won’t listen to two whole CDs of Christmas music just for me. I just like hearing the odd song every once in awhile. But now I know you like Christmas music, girl, give me somewhere to send it and I promise to send you a copy!! Trust me, you need it in your life like Juvey!! LOL!!

    For a performer to be legendary, they have to go BEYOND eras…they have to TRANSCEND…and they to have done it for YEARS…

    That’s Tina Turner…who is as of today and at over 70 years of age…is still selling out HUGE stadiums all over the world…who has shared the stage with legendary luminaries…who not only made the mold…but broke it…

    I’m sorry…that’s not Beyonce…she is an outstanding performer…but don’t put her in Tina’s or Aretha’s or HELL even Madonna’s category until she earns it…

    Which, as of today…

    SHE HASN’T!!!

    Kanye needs to close his mouth and hope that 30 years from now folks will still find him relevant…or find him a “cool dusty”…

    Because there’s a good chance THAT won’t happen to him!!!

    Heads up! Rush and Molloy caught up with Adrien and Beyonce on the red carpet and got some kissing info:

    http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/12/03/2008-12-03_for_adrien_brody_lip_sync_with_beyonc_se.html

    You saw how he hammered that kiss onto Halle Berry at the 2003 Oscars, so you know Adrien Brody dove into his work when it came to making out with Beyoncé in “Cadillac Records.”

    Writer/director Darnell Martin admitted at Monday’s premiere that she took some “dramatic license” in devising a scene where record boss Leonard Chess (Brody) locks lips and rolls around on the carpet with heroin-fogged singer Etta James (Beyoncé).

    But Brody wasn’t troubled by the historical inaccuracy.

    “Let’s just say it wasn’t a deal breaker,” the grinning actor told us. “When I met Etta [the real one], she told me, ‘Leonard and I did not do those things!’ So, yes, it was somewhat embellished. But what’s wonderful is the truth Beyoncé brings to that moment. That justified it.”

    Plus, said Brody, whose girlfriend, Elsa Pataky, was out of earshot, “It is fun, obviously, to kiss Beyoncé. I insisted on a lot of takes.”

    Beyoncé, who came to the premiere with husband Jay-Z, allowed that she didn’t find the intimacy repellent.

    “It wasn’t so bad,” she said with a faraway smile. “I remember when he kissed Halle Berry. He’s not shy! Not at all.”

    Cedric the Entertainer, who plays bluesman Willie Dixon, admitted his only problem with the film was that “they wrote me out of a scene with Beyoncé.”

    Eamonn Walker, who heaped on weight and dropped his British accent to become Howlin’ Wolf, said he identified with the growling singer’s “madness, his obsessiveness and his love of women.”

    Jeffrey Wright, who masterfully inhabits Muddy Waters, admitted he couldn’t match the Hoochie Coochie Man’s guitar-pickin’ or alcohol intake: “How am I going to be a hard-drinking man with a 7-year-old and a 3-year-old — though they may drive me to drink?”

    Despite Beyoncé donating her salary to the Phoenix House rehab program, premiere guests did do a little boozin’ at the after-party at Marquee. Joining cast members like Mos Def, Gabrielle Union and Emmanuelle Chriqui were Leonardo DiCaprio, Diddy, Ne-Yo, John Legend, Kevin Connolly, Akon and Russell Simmons.

    I am a music genius…and an avid fan of music…
    but I must agree to a degree with Kanye..

    Beyonce is definitely amongst the greatest of all times and certainly deserves to be mentioned along side ALL of the great female artists who have come before her…

  165. 165
    PAHairston says:

    Hello All! I wonder if Beyonce will look as good as Tina in say, 50 years! How many 69 yr old women look like Tina? Not many because most, not all but most, woman entertainers at one time or other in their lives smoked, drank and indulged in drugs. Tina didn’t. I’m just saying…..

    Beyonce the greatest of all times? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
