Rapper/producer Kanye West was recently nominated for a number of Grammy awards. Two categories in which he was nominated were Song of the Year and Best Rap Song for "Jesus Walks," a song he bought from an Indianapolis-based MC named Rhymefest and re-recorded. While it is true that Rhymefest was given a songwriting credit and nominated for two awards along with West, we do not feel that it is appropriate for The Recording Academy to reward this kind of behavior, especially in light of statements he has made with regard to his capabilities as an artist and the fact that he rarely acknowledges the fact that he buys a lot of "his" music from other artists. Therefore we are requesting that you remove his name from consideration in all categories in which he was nominated.

    • I always felt that he could't have lyrics like those he BOUGHT and me being an up and coming artist he's showing complete disrespect to the TRU greats in culture that so many of us call Hip-Hop. I jsut bought the new Tupac and I know he would spit in Kanya's face. Please remove his name.

    • Kanye West does not deserve 10 grammy nominations. They keep doing this they just nominate who is ever popular at the time and just hand out grammys like candy. They are taking the prestige away from this award. Kanye West isn't even good he's a cocky rookie and just imagine how much his ego will boost if he wins 10 grammys he already thinks hes a genius
