Kanye West shocked fans once again at the 2015 Grammys after he almost "Kanyed" singer Beck during his "Album of the Year" speech. The 44-year-old was shocked along with everyone in the Staples Arena when Prince announced his name and album, "Morning Phase" beating out megastars, Pharrell Williams, Sam Smith, and Kanye's bestie, Beyoncé.

Viral video of the horrific encounter made its rounds on the internet, including Jay Z's and Beyoncé's own "Nooooooo Kanyeeeeee" reaction. Although, Kanye decided to not recreate his infamous 2009 MTV VMAs "Imma let you finish" Taylor Swift interruption, he waited to do it at the E! After Party beside his wife, Kim Kardashian.

"I don't know what he said, 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. Flawless, Beyoncé video. Beck needs to respect artistry and he should have given his award to Beyoncé, and at this point, we tired of it." "Because what happens is, when you keep on diminishing art and not respecting the craft and smacking people in the face after they deliver monumental feats of music, you're disrespectful to inspiration and we, as musicians, have to inspire people who go to work every day and they listen to that Beyoncé album and they feel like it takes them to another place." He continued, "Then they do this whole promotional event, they'll run the music over somebody's speech, the artist, because they want commercial advertising. Like, no, we not playing with them no more. By the way, I got my wife, my daughter and my clothing line, so I'm not going to do nothing to put my daughter at risk but I am here to fight for creativity. That's the reason why I didn't say anything tonight. But you all know what it meant when 'Ye walks on the stage." Well, the victim of Kanye's rant, singer Beck decided to take the humble route and told Us Weekly at the Universal Music Group party, "I was just so excited he was coming up. He deserves to be on stage as much as anybody," The 44-year-old complimented the "Yeezus" rap star, "How many great records has he put out in the last five years, right?" Beck added, that he was also shocked by the big win, "I thought she was going to win. Come on, she's Beyoncé!" He explained that he understands he can't please everyone with his artistry, "You can't please everybody, man. I still love him and think he's genius. I aspire to do what he does."  Kanye's wife, Kim Kardashian decided to poke fun at the epic snub on Instagram:
