Well played on both of their parts. I only hope that this feud (and obvious subsequent Kanye visit to the Colbert Report) rivals the Decemberists shred-off.
yea i agree with albany. kanye is known for bitchmade whiny rants about not getting awards and he takes himself way too seriously. i would highly doubt he is playing along in good fun.
I'm with tc. While Kanye can be a prick, he also can have good fun with his image as a prick. For further reference, see his Saturday Night Live appearance complete with Mike Myers cameo immediately following his "George Bush doesn't care about black people" rant.
You know, I do think its kinda awesome in a way that Kanye is starting a "fued." If anything, it'll only help put more bank in Colbert's wallet, and I think he is hilarious, so I am all for that!
You people are crazy. I would much rather Kanye, with all his ranting and raving, stay in the public eye rather than say a Heidi Montag or Paris Hilton. I'm sure some of you disagree completely, while others believe I'm just splitting hairs, but at least Kanye actually DOES something regardless of how you feel about it.
All that said, Colbert will stomp him in this "feud". Though clearly the real winners will be us as the viewing public.
The bit that Stephen Colbert did with Rain was just hysterical.
Too bad Kanye is such a pea brained jerk.
Answer: An entertainer. You've heard of those right Kanye?
colbert > kanye.

@tc3:
I don't think Kanye is kidding. He's something of a colossal shithead.
Colbert however, he's going to have a ball and look classy as a motherfucker.
Albany:
I'm quite certain that Kanye West knows who Colbert is.
This is clearly brewing to an on-air conclusion of the "feud."

colbert all day.
wow, solid link. oh sweet, sweet Colbert...

Kanye needs to play in traffic.
I love Kanye. This is definitely a stunt. What does Kanye love more than anything? Validation. What provides that? Free publicity.
Kanye is kind of like Ann Coulter. If we'd ignore his ranting, he'd go away. Alas, many cannot.
Why would I want Kanye to go away? He's released 4 great records.

Operation Humble Kanye was doomed from the beginning. I hear Kanye is doing a couple of verses in Jesus Christ's new single.
Al Sharpton needs to straighten him out: http://tinyurl.com/58e8y7
tc3.. that photo means nothing. I bet Kanye STILL doesn't know who Stephen Colbert is. Not that it's mandatory that he does, but still...
kanye's reaction was the same as mine.
I watched the clip and it was funny, though.
..and that was about enough television for me, today.

Full disclosure: I believe 808 & HB is excellent!
it's gotta be an act. kanye is awesome, haters.
What a sad and sheltered life you lead.
and bring on the self-satisfaction buffet!
haha, I love when you poke and prod me.
it tickles.
haha, i love when albanyparkour pokes and prods me... it tickles.
Sorry that my sad sheltered life doesn't include watching television enough to know who that guy is.
I must be completely and utterly boring.
joe, colbert rules hard. sleeping is unwise.
maybe I should buy the Xmas album...lol
I looked at a few skits online. Some were pretty funny.
Heh heh... Colbert is now beating Kanye on the iTunes chart; 3rd and 4th respectively.

Which means the end-of-the-week gloating begins on tonight's show...
