Heard Him Say! A Timeline Of Kanye West's Public Outbursts

Perhaps that's thinking too small. At this point, Kanye has sort of become the Dominique Wilkins of award-show temper tantrums — he's the human highlight reel of really unwarranted tirades. From preshow threats and mid-show walkouts to post-show tirades and backstage blustering, West has done it all ... and with a résumé as strong as his, he's probably in line for a lifetime achievement award of sorts.
