President Obama Calls Kanye West A Talented Jack Ass, Prefers Jay-Z
If this is true, some would say that President Obama calls it like he sees it. In a recent interview with The Atlantic Obama was asked about his musical taste. Specifically, he was asked who he preferred–Jay-Z or Kanye West. His choice? Jigga. He also mentioned that he was a fan of Kanye West as well.
“Although I like Kanye. He’s a Chicago guy. Smart. He’s very talented…”
The interviewer then reminded him that back in 2009, Obama called Kanye a jackass, for hopping his a** on stage and interrupting Taylor Smith. Not one to back-peddle, Obama responded,
“He is a jackass…But he’s talented.”
Is President Obama right, is Kanye a talented jackass?
“Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ma let you finish….But Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.”

Kanye was just reppin for his boss’s chick……..but yo, Bey’s video was the up there…….made me feel like I was 12 years old again watching Kiana’s flex appeal before going to school lol………and Taylor should be happy, cuz nobody knew who she was until Kanye did that……she should be happy
How could nobody know who Taylor was if she was winning the award lmao. That’s a ridiculous comment. Smh. Country music is the biggest music genre in the US. Taylor has a shit load of writing awards. Ppl kill me with that Kanye made her stuff. Pres is right that was a jackass move. That is not how a typical adult should carry themselves and he embarassed the shit outta Beyonce, who gave Taylor her respect later. Nobody’s knew who Taylor was I almost spilled my vodka reading that lmaooooo
I believe we say he made her because no one knew who she was in the R&B and Rap world. When you take it from that view point…. he did make her. I dont believe country music is as big as you may perceive it. Nevertheless, whatever your favorite genre of music may be, it is natural to think that particular genre is the biggest. Now that the US is mixed with so many different nationalites, it would be almost imposibble to really put your finger on which genre is more dominant in the music industry.
Being from the CHI, I Love my President and Kanye, but Barack hit the nail on the head, Ye is a talented jackass. However, at the time of the Taylor incident he had just lost his mother, and I think he was clearly searching for some attention. He was doing a lot of weird shit at that time, but in my opion he has since redeemed himself, but still a jackass.
