While American singer Beck accepted his Album of the Year award At the 57th Annual Grammy Awards in February 2015, Kanye “Ye” West hit the stage without warning — yes, again. Only this time, he did not say a word, leading many to believe he had only been fooling around. Later that night, West revealed that his little antic was, in fact, not a joke. “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,” he told E! News. “And Beck needs to respect artistry and he should’ve given his award to Beyoncé.”
Unfazed by West’s antics, Beck would later gush about his admiration for the rapper, telling Us Weekly of his love for his music. What’s more, the “Where It’s At” singer agreed with West’s comment about Beyoncé, telling the outlet he’d assumed her self-titled record would take home the honor that night over “Morning Phase.”
Still, West thought it only appropriate to publicly extend an olive branch to Beck. “I’m fine to apologise for inaccuracies. You know, I send flowers for inaccuracies,” he said in a 2015 interview, per Billboard. “I talked to Beck’s wife, and I think I had a point about Beyoncé’s album, but I think I was inaccurate with the concept of a gentleman who plays 14 instruments not respecting artistry.”
