Dude, everyone is allowed to speak their minds, there is a way to do it that isn't being an asshole though. I like his music, I think he's an ass. I've seen a number of interviews with the guy, he's a solid artist, no doubt but he comes across as very self important and his actions at the award show reinforce as much.

But there's a reason they put him in the front row, they want him to do this shit. It gets us all talking and tweeting etc and helps the Grammys become "must see" live tv again. The powers that be at the Grammys that he is railing against, must be drinking champagne and toasting his name right about now.

Oh, for sure to all of those points. I just wish nobody took the Grammies this seriously.
