Liam Gallagher Has Some Thoughts About Kanye, Too
Noel and Liam Gallagher, brothers and former Oasis bandmates, are completely estranged, and they don’t see eye-to-eye on very much. They are, however, in complete accordance on at least one crucial issue: They both think Kanye West is a clown. In a ridiculously entertaining Stereogum interview earlier this week, Noel managed to talk a gang of shit about a number of different subjects, Kanye very much included: “I’m aware of our mate Kanye being a bit of a buffoon at one of them [awards shows], yeah. Didn’t he say Beck should ‘respect artistry’ and pass the award on to Beyoncé?… Well, No. 1, somebody should buy that boy a dictionary. And he needs to look up the fucking term ‘artistry’ and then see if it reminds him, in any way, of Beyoncé.” Meanwhile, Liam caught Kanye’s striking performance of “All Day” at the Brit Awards, and he aired out some thoughts on Twitter:
Kanye West. Utter Shit. LG x

The Lee Mavers in question is the former frontman of defunct Liverpool power-poppers the La’s. This is a very interesting recommendation! And if Kanye brought out fucking flamethrowers to cover “There She Goes,” I would, at the very least, watch.
