Kanye West will apparently need Jesus to walk onstage with him at this year's BET Awards. Word is insiders of the Gospel industry are upset at the Louis Vutton Don being nominated for Best Gospel Artist at this year's ceremony. Ye first outraged the Gospel community when he received a nod for Best Gospel Rap Album at the Stellar Gospel Awards last September. Insiders are mainly pissed with West making the ballot because authentic Gospel artists have been omitted.
On another note, Kanye revealed that his second LP, Late Registration will feature a darker tone than its predecessor, The College Dropout. "The sound is a little bit darker. We're kind of pushing the enveloped with the music. John Bryan, he produces a lot of movies, he produced Fiona Apple. He co-produced the entire album and that's where we get a lot of that instrumentation cause I was really trying to push the envelope and show people where we can take it," Ye stated during an interview with the U.K.'s BBC radio. West recently wrapped shooting a new video with Hype Williams for "Diamonds" in Prague. The rapper/producer also said that the single's official title was "Diamonds from Sierra Leone" rather than "Diamonds."
