KANYE WEST has pulled out some crackpot rants over the years - but his COLDPLAY theory could be one of the biggest talkers yet. The rapper, producer and fashion-daahling-designer believes CHRIS MARTIN, JONNY BUCKLAND, WILL CHAMPION and GUY BERRYMAN are as good as - if not better - than THE BEATLES.

 

That is a massive compliment, and a controversial pop view. I'm a fan, but Chris Martin and co, despite selling millions of albums, divide opinion.

 

Kanye said: "America has, and probably always will, dominate music across the globe but it's always been the British who pull out that very special band. We have had amazing bands like NIRVANA and GUNS N' ROSES but it's the British who have had the cream with The Beatles and THE ROLLING STONES setting the standard. I love Coldplay, and I honestly think they are on the same level as The Beatles.

 

"In 30 years, when Coldplay are old men, people will look back and say, 'These guys were more talented than The Beatles.' I have worked with Chris Martin and the man is a genius - as a performer and a songwriter he is on the same level as JOHN LENNON. I am not saying this sort of s*** lightly, it's really how talented the guy is. And Coldplay can go down as the best ever - even bigger than The Beatles.

 

"I have worked with Chris before but I'd like to work with him and the rest of the group next time. I have worked with some greats in my career but I really want to get in the studio and make an album with Coldplay. JAY-Z and LINKIN PARK made a sick album, and on paper that shouldn't have worked but it did. I want to meet with Chris and talk seriously about doing that. With us all in the studio we could create one of the greatest albums ever."

 

Chris recorded the chorus on Kanye's song Homecoming, from his hit album Graduation. The Devon lad also pulled out an impressive collaboration with Jay-Z on Beach Chair.

:thumbsup:

Who knows? They still have a fair way ahead of them yet but anything is possible.

^ This.

 

It's nice hearing someone talk highly of Coldplay for once! Don't know if I can agree with them being better than the Beatles just yet, but as said - they have time left. I think, however, that they have influenced the music scene in a way that can rival the Beatles... Or something, I don't really know how to explain myself. :P

This! :thumbsup:

Uuum I will agree and disagree with this.

 

I love you Coldplay but at the moment, it's the Beatles. They are in their own league.

 

Wait 10 - 30 years, Coldplay will ( I hope! :wacky:) probably be just as good :)

If they're still making music by then of course :heart:

I just hope it's not another publicity stunt by Kanye West and he actually means what he says... Coldplay have some distance to cover though but If they keep making records of such high standards I won't be surprised seeing them overshoot Beatles... But For now, their prime importance should be GREAT MUSIC (which they always do) and not participate in the "Battle of The Giants"

This is just too much. This claim will only become valid in 2040. :|

oh yeaah :dance:

 

I couldnt agree more

 

(:thumbsup: KANYE WEST)

Well, I really appreciate what he said, but honestly I don't know if Coldplay are even better than The Beatles, that's something people will realize in 30 years...

 

 

 

Though I love Coldplay more than any other bands, The Beatles included :lol:

I don't agree but it's nice to hear. The Beatles truly invented something. We'll in ten years though.

K.West is a crackpot.................... Coldplay stay away............... Nice of him to say nice things about Chris and Coldplay itself, but he's a jerk. This is my opinion, I know some will dissagree.

just wait some years people... ;)

I understand what you are trying to say :P, don't worry. I feel the same way.

:awesome:

What a stupid thing to say. He obviously loves controversary. I'm not saying that's not his opinion, but he knows by saying it to the press he's going to stir up some very strong objections

:blank:

 

No, just no. Coldplay can't and will never match The Beatles.

the idea of comparing the first real band with anyone who follows is honestly pointless. people always do this - so an so is better than the beatles. well the thing is, the beatles made music like this first. and the beatles, to this day, were more experimental than i see coldplay ever being.

 

if you want to compare pure songwriting ability, you'd have to compare mccartney to chris, and that to me is still the same thing - the beatles did it first. obviously, i think coldplay are very different from the beatles, but they evolved from them just as almost any other modern band has.

 

i wish some would also consider how prolific the beatles were in their short time together. coldplay have been around about as long as the beatles and they've made 4 LPs.

 

the more real comparison for a band like coldplay would be U2 - NOT MUSICALLY CRAZY U2 HATERS - just in terms of impact and general quality. and honestly, i don't see coldplay being remembered as better than u2. they've got to do some serious work to be in that league of remembrance. UNDERSTAND, i like coldplay more than u2, there's nothing biased about my statements. <-- I only say these things because there are some people on this thread who flip out at comparisons.

 

as for a coldplay/kanye ALBUM collaboration...please no. if coldplay actually want to be remembered, they'd be best not to do something like that. fortunately, i don't see them doing anything like that. a track here or there is the nice sort of throwaway to show they're open minded without throwing away their musical credibility.

Please Kanye. Just fuck off you dick.

 

I love both bands but anyone who compares any other band with THE Beatles are just deluded. Still some Radiohead fans are deluded enough to say Radiohead are on equal terms with The Beatles.

Yo Beatles

I'mma really happy for you and I'mma let you finish

But Coldplay is the best band of ALL time

OF ALL TIME!!!!

I totally agree with what you said... Nicely written...

I Love Coldplay, I'm a pretty big fan but even I wouldn't go as far to say Coldplay were greater than the Beatles.
