While Kanye looks at himself like a god and even claims his “god name” is Yeezus, there’s a lot of things happening to him that make it clear he’s still very much just a human like the rest of us. Not only did his new album “Yeezus” not reach his own expectations as far as album sales are concerned, to this very day the album has been outsold by newbie J. Cole and his very own “bff” Jay-Z. Kanye’s plans to go against the machine and not drop an official single for the radio may have hindered his own success with the current album, and in an attempt to gain some buzz he’s gone against his own plan and dropped a music video and official single. Still the album has lost its buzz, meanwhile Kanye’s own circle of friends are crying foul because they believe ‘Ye’s new music is better than Jay-Z’s new platinum record, “Magna Carta Holy Grail.”

Kanye may not be too thrilled about the current status of “Yeezus” but his personal life seems to be doing pretty well with a new baby with his girlfriend Kim Kardashian and he’s also taking another chance with fashion considering his APC line sold out pretty quickly. However, let Sharon Osbourne tell it, he’s pretty overrated and his constant blemishes in the media and drama with paparazzi are unwarranted because she feels his talent is “average.”

The wife to legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne and “The Talk” host had some words for Kanye when she recently opened up to the Daily Beast about her opinions on random celebrities. She says:

“I have no time for him. He bores me. I said it on the show, he’s an average-looking man with an average talent, but he’s a great salesman. He should sell cars because they would f*ckin’ fly out the door. He’s his No. 1 fan.”

 

Ouch.

  1. I see no lies here. People always talk about how talented Kanye is but from what I remember he usually just takes samples and throws a random beat on top of that and calls it music. His lyrics sound like they were written by a sixth grader and he’s actually proud of that Yeezus crap he just put out. So yeah, Sharon got it right.

  2. Well damn. I got to say he used to be talented but somewhere down the line he got too arrogant for his own good. Oh well.

  3. I can’t stand Kanye but who is Sharon supposed to be? It’s laughable how she’s talking about Kanye having average talent and she has absolutely none herself. She only got that talk show because of her druggie husband’s connections. Girl have a stadium of seats, you and your talentless kids. Ozzy is the only one that can talk about talent and he’s probably too high to do so.

  4. Kanye is average talent wise now but that wasn’t always the case. He’s just a product of what fame can do to weak minded people.

  5. And what her husband does is supposed to be talent? Bish please. Get that attitude of white superiority out of here. They are so quick to call rap music trash and rappers non talented but Ozzy gets on stage and screams all damn day. Oh and bites off bat heads.

  6. I’m trying to understand who gave her the authority to speak on talent. What does she even do for a living besides the things Ozzy gave her a hookup to?

  7. Sharon please sit your old a-s down. I don’t know who made you an expert on pop culture, but they really shouldn’t have. And I still don’t care for Kanye but Sharon is more annoying than he is. She has something to say about everyone like her family isn’t screwed up.

  8. *rolls eyes* Had this came from someone other than Sharon, I might have cosigned. She needs to look at her two kids before she talk about no talent. And she only has a show because of her hubby. At least Kanye worked to be where he is and didn’t have to marry into money.
