  • Kanye West is reportedly upset that his album Yeezus has only been nominated for two Grammy awards this year.

    “Yeezus is the top one or two album on every single list, but only gets two nominations from the Grammys. What are they trying to say?” he said at US Airways Center, according to an Instagram video recorded by KISS-FM.

    The nominations are for Best Rap Album and Best Rap Song (“New Slaves”), and the 21-time winner is just not happy with that.

    West has been making headlines this week with his mid-show outbursts, including one in San Antonio in which he told off a concert-goer for asking him to take off his mask. She was promptly kicked out at his request.

    “You can see my face on the Internet every motherfucking day,” Kanye said. “I came here, I open up a mountain…and you tryin’ to tell me how to give you my art….Do I look like a motherfucking comedian? Don’t fucking heckle me. I’m Kanye motherfucking West.”
