Kanye Arrested After Nightclub Fracas

Posted Fri 14 Nov 2008 5:39PM GMT by Mitch Cater in The Guestlist
Hip-Hop luminary Kanye West was arrested in the early hours of Friday morning following a confrontation with a photographer. The rapper was thought to be arrested for assault but was later released without charge.

The incident happened outside the Tup Tup Palace cocktail bar in Newcastle which West had visited after playing a gig at the city's Metro Arena.

A spokesmen for the police said "We can confirm that a 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assault following an incident at a Newcastle city centre nightclub in the early hours of this morning. He was released without charge and no further police action is being taken."

West is currently touring the UK as part of his Glow In The Dark tour. Watch the video for his new single Love Lockdown below and let us know what you think.

Stupid and idiotic people like to insult others. I hate any profane music, but I don't think the singers are idiots, they are just misled by Satan. Whoever calls them idiots or apes because they are black is just being an idiot!
It is a shame that some people consider others to be apes! If I call you a pig, you will certainly be offended! Don't call any og God's human creations apes, for you may turn into one soon. We stand for peace. For generations, black people have earned the most negative names of all times. Even Indians (some black), and other Asians look low on AFricans! Please, before you visit African, make sure you have cleaned yourself and have some clean nice clothes too, else you will meet with great surprises. The Western media only shows you the poverty, the misery, the sad part of Africa. This has been going on for ages! What a conspiracy in deed. Africans themselves have contributed to this because they don't care at all. Some light skin African even make fun of dark skin Africans! Shame on the world! Dark skin people, thank God for making you fearfully and wonderfully! You are the masterpiece of God's creation, the final product. God bless you.
I particulary like white people because I have seen that most of them are nice people, they love black people. My problem is with those black people who deny their colour! What is wrong with being black? Don't you wear black clothes? black shoes? black cats and dogs? We even have black and white pigs, dogs, monkeys, goats, birds, and black cats! Love all people and hate only evil. Look at the guy in Austria who destroyed his own daughter and grand children! He is a monster! Look all those horrible serial killers! Let black be black and white be white, but don't look low on any one because of their colour. Women know better! Women don't always discriminate, they see more than men do. bravo white girls that marry black boys! go ahead and bring forth black-white beauty. I love all people, even those who ignorantly call me what I am not.

He is crap!! I went 2 see him in Belfast last Sat and it was only him not a backing dancer or any stage show. He came on at 9.15 and was over at 10.30.

There's a term for people leaving all the cooments about him being an ape and he should get his ass kicked. HATERS, hating on a brother cos he's black and succesful. The only apes here are those leaving dumb ass comments only cos your intellect is on the same level as an ape. Big up Kanye. NO time for haters

Kanye is an arrogant, slack-jaw [profane] So what if he makes his own beats? And now he's supposed to be talented? So what if he makes his own [profane]ing beats? I thought hip hop was all about making beats. DJ Premier, Pete Rock, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Dr. Dre- these guys have talent, and most importantly, they're humble. Kanye the [profane]got considers himself the King of hip hop? [profane] please! What a [profane]ing joke. Perhaps he's a "king" compared to all the other talentless rappers nowadays. This mother [profane]ing polo shirt wearing [profane] is so far up his own arse, he can't even smell the [profane] that comes out of his mouth. All his dick-sucking fans regard him as intelligent? ! Yeah right, that's why this [profane] dropped out of college. A two-bit low-grade technical college at that. Oh, "Kanye's such a conscientious black man"....---what because he stupidly spat out "euh...euh...George...Bush ...doesn't...care about black people"---Oh wow, such a clever bastard, the way he stumbled his way through that one. Reminded me of a 7 year old infant, sputtering out a poem for the first time in front of a school assembly. Yeah, real smart, Kanye. Malcolm X would have been proud of your Kindergarten-level standard of articulation...NOT. [profane]ing you, Kanye, you [profane]-made, talentless, piece of [profane]. Go do us all a favour and put a bullet in your brain.
