On Tuesday, June 24th, Kanye West fought back against heavy criticism and defended his Bonnaroo performance via his blog. In some ways I feel slightly bad for him, just because he has taken so much flak. Here are some of the highlights of what Kanye said in his post:
I am sick of negative people who just sit around trying 2 plot my downfall… Why????
Nobody’s plotting your downfall, Kanye. The fans of Bonnaroo just wanted a good, entertaining, on time performance, and we didn’t get that. We got an egotistical Kanye who strolled onto the stage 2 hours late and didn’t even acknowledge the crowd once. It was bright out halfway through your performance.
