Beyonce lost the album of the year category to Beck's Morning Phase, all of a sudden, Kanye climbs up the stage, making everyone (including Jay Z and Bey) freak out about whether he was going to pull a "Kanye" again.He then had a change of heart and didn't speak.. you needed to see the priceless looks on Beyonce and Jay Z'...lol!
"I don't know what he said, all I know is if the Grammys want real artists to keep coming back, they need to stop playing with us. We ain't gonna play with them no more. 'Flawless,' Beyoncé video. Beck needs to respect artistry and he should have given his award to Beyoncé, and at this point, we tired of it," '
"Because what happens is, when you keep on diminishing art and not respecting the craft and smacking people in the face after they deliver monumental feats of music, you're disrespectful to inspiration and we as musicians have to inspire people who go to work every day and they listen to that Beyoncé album and they feel like it takes them to another place."
Reaction from Jay Z and Beyonce below...
Kim laughs as Kanye storms the stage
Kanye returns to his seat laughing
But it was not a laughing matter when Khloe (who was reporting for E!) asked him about the incident
Kanye said
Becks later even agreed that Beyonce should have won
"Then they do this whole promotional event, they'll run the music over somebody's speech, the artist, because they want commercial advertising. Like, no, we not playing with them no more. By the way, I got my wife, my daughter and my clothing line, so I'm not going to do nothing to put my daughter at risk but I am here to fight for creativity. That's the reason why I didn't say anything tonight. But you all know what it meant when 'Ye walks on the stage"..

"I was so excited he was coming up! He deserves to be on that stage." And about beating Beyonce in the category, Becks said "Absolutely I thought she was going to win."
Asked
if there was any hard feelings about Kanye's stage attack, he said:
'You can't please everybody. I still love him and think he's genius. I aspire to what he does. How many great records has he put out in the last five years right?'.
