Kanye West is such a little baby. He always has meltdowns when he doesn’t win, or isn’t picked to perform on the grown-up stage. Here’s his VMA meltdown for your viewing/listening pleasure.

Transcribed (thanks to JustJared):

“**** MTV. Y’all heard what the **** I said… Five nominations. I ****in’ lost to Black Eyed Peas last year, man. I’m never coming to MTV. Ya’ll find Britney. Get Britney. Get a real ****in’ artist. Get Britney Spears. I ain’t ****in’ with this pop ****. God****. Give me a ****in’ chance. Give a black man a chance. I’m tryin’ hard. I got the ****in’ #1 record. I’m tryin’ man. I don’t even get a ****in’ chance. They don’t want a ****in’ black man in that position.”

This story is just too good to be true. It was already mildly amusing before, when Kanye and Fitty were being all middle-school about their albums dropping, but Kenny Chesney has just taken it to the next level. Which probably means he’s going to get a cap busted in his ass on September 11th, when the album showdown is set to occur. Uh, good luck, Kenny!

Entertainment Weekly reports:

”It’s funny how with every record that comes out, we’re aware of the urban [competition], and none of those acts acknowledge that I exist,” Chesney tells EW via email. “Until I have that No. 1 debut on the Top 200.”

Just Who I Am: Poets and Pirates, Chesney’s 11th studio album, goes on sale the same Tuesday morning as 50 Cent’s Curtis and Kanye West’s Graduation. Chesney’s last four studio efforts have opened atop Billboard’s albums chart — including his most recent effort, The Road and the Radio, which beat the original soundtrack to 50 Cent’s film Get Rich or Die Tryin’ when both debuted in November 2005.

50 Cent has said that he will retire from his recording career if West outsells him next month. West took a more diplomatic tack at last week’s MTV Video Music Awards press conference, according to the New York Daily News, telling reporters, ”When my album drops and Fifty’s album drops, you’re going to get a lot of good music at the same time.”

On his encounter with Prince William and Prince Harry:
“One of them said, ‘I thought those glasses were bling,’ and the other one said, ‘It’s Kanye West, they’d have to be bling.’ I didn’t have the heart to tell them that I’m the anti-bling.”

This is, hands down, the best way to start your Thursday. Here we have Zach Galifianakis and Will Oldham doing Kanye West’s ‘Can’t tell me nothing’. I’m not sure what’s funnier - Zach’s silk magenta getup or Will’s “Hahaaaa”s. Really, you have to see this.
