- Posted on Dec 7th 2007 4:00PM by Spinner
Winner: 'Stronger,' Kanye WestOne person's idea of musical genius is another's idea of musical vandalism. Just ask patrick, who says, "Kanye West just [took] Daft Punk's song, messed it up, and rapped on top of it."
'Stronger,' Kanye West ... 37%
'Shut Up and Drive,' Rihanna ... 27%
'Beautiful Girls,' Sean Kingston ... 21%
'Tears Dry on Their Own,' Amy Winehouse ... 15%

if u dont like it dont listen to it and dont buy it. simple as that. ur arguing and raising ur blood pressure over something that has nothing to with u niggas. what daft punk and kanye west do with their music has nothing to do with u. some people think picassos pictures look like a retard on shrooms painted it and some think its genius.

Daft Punk MADE IT FOR HIM.
Also? Daft Punk should have no problem letting people use their music.
THEY USE OTHER SAMPLES ALL THE TIME. [i.e, Digital Love, the Crescendolls, etc.]
SO, LOL. PATRICK CAN SUCK IT UP.
[PS : This is coming from a huge Daft Punk fan. I know what I'm talking about.]
I hope Patricks Friend's mother dies and see how he feels about it. Crawl under a rock and die u ignorant hater.

And Under Pressure was so much better than Ice's remake.

And listening to allkinds of music doesn't mean that I only listen to whats on the radio. I listen to band that like no one knows about. and then when i see them on MTV its sorta dissapointing because then people will start to only like them because they're on the radio. But anywho, Stronger is a really good song, even though it samples your beloved Daft Punk. I mean no one complained when Vanilla ice did Ice Ice baby and sampled Under pressure.

worst lyrics ever paired with best song ever.
The song only won because of its catchy chorus paired with Daft Punk's catchy song.
Uhm u may think teh song sux... millions of others jammed 2 it evry day n liked it... so for u to say he messed it up is ignorant... he fit it to teh likes of teh peoepl he targeted it to... i doubt a 60 year old woman will like sum stuff about sex.. but i bet a hormone raging teen would... i say we all listen to lupe fiasco n b happy :-D i cant spell i kno im 15 sue me -.-

When Justice(French techno duo who has the same manager as Daft Punk) won best music video Kanye went all out on the stage because he thinks he's #1 and took the mic and made a fool of himself.
well his moms dead. HAH.
So anyways everyone should just watch Daft Punk's movie that is all about sampling and just showing it off to another audience.
In the movie a fat business man kidnaps an alien pop band from a space, turns them human, and makes them perform for earth.
If you actually think Kanye West is an artist then u don't understand what music is or have any clue
You're probably just one of those people who say "yeah i like all types of music" and u listen to the radio. Yes, you do like music, but you only listen to what you're being told to listen to.
If you knew what else was out there you'd realize that Kanye west is just an ass trying to make money with MTV. BUSINESS does not equal ART.
Sure he makes something at the end of the day but his intentions are just...
1. Make money and
2. Be number 1
Honestly just watch him any time he wins an award. He'll just talk about how great he is. There's stuff on youtube just watch.
And i know Daft Punk was so pleased to have Kanye use their song but I'm really just pissed off that America loves it so much. Its just... bullshit.
Daft Punk rules.
That's one of the reasons I'm so ticked off. I hate Kanye West and I love Daft Punk. I don't know why they'd do this to themselves.
