Beck Reacts to Kanye West's Epic Rant, Says 'You Can't Please Everyone'

Despite Kanye West‘s sentiments, Beck still has nothing but nice things to say about the artist after he jokingly stormed the stage at the 2015 Grammys when he won Album Of the Year over Beyonce.

“I was just so excited he was coming up. He deserves to be on stage as much as anybody,” the 44-year-old Grammy winner said (via Us Weekly) of Kanye‘s on stage storm. “How many great records has he put out in the last five years right?”

When asked what he thought about Kanye saying Beyonce should have won, Beck replied, “Absolutely. I thought she was going to win. Come on, she’s Beyonce!”

“You can’t please everybody, man. I still love him and think he’s genius. I aspire to do what he does,” Beck added.

Kanye West: Beck 'Should Have Given His Award to Beyonce'

Kanye West stormed the stage at the 2015 Grammy Awards in what seemed like a joke when Beck won the award for Album of the Year, but maybe he wasn’t joking after all?

The 37-year-old rapper stopped by the E! After Show to chat with his sister-in-law, host Khloe Kardashian, and commented on his actions during the show.

“If they want real artists to keep coming back, they need to stop playing with us. We ain’t going to play with them no more… ‘Flawless,’ Beyonce‘s video, and Beck needs to respect artistry and he should have given his award to Beyonce,” he said. “And, at this point, we tired of it. Because what happens is that when you keep on diminishing art and not respecting the craft and smacking people in the face.”

Beyonce was nominated for the award for her self-titled album, but lost to Beck. She still picked up three other prizes during the show!
