Upon accepting his first ever AMA, for Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album, Kanye urged his contemporaries to join him in pushing the pop music envelope, a la the Beatles, Hendrix and Zeppelin. "In any other industry, you're supposed to do better than the past, like computers should get smaller and faster," he said. "Whenever you say, 'I wanna be Elvis,' they say, 'What's wrong with you?' Well, I wanna be Elvis." It was a heartfelt moment, though less ...

Kanye s 808s and Heartbreak is out today, and in promotion Kanye brought his Auto-Tuner and new single Heartless to the American Music Awards (did anyone actually watch this live?), last night. The background they have him performing in front of is appropriately sci-fi, but it doesn t match the coolness of the song s video . It also appears Kaye has finally bailed on those stupid shutter shades, and he s back to wearing some expensive looking, shutter-less shades. Kanye cleaned up at the show last night, winning the Best Hip-Hop Album Award for Graduation . [ Pitchfork ]
