3. Wu-Tang Is For The Children
But the original trailblazer of the award acceptance speech hijack is Ol' Dirty Bastard who got his shining moment in the sun in 1998. Unlike Kanye, ODB was polite enough to wait until a completely different award was being presented to Shawn Colvin to begin his rant about how Wu-Tang should've won for best hip hop album over P. Diddy. What Ol' Dirty Bastard lacked in modesty (Kanye was espousing Beyonce's video after all), he made up for in honest delusions, first declaring his outfit of the night "costed" a lot of money and then distinguishing his band from Diddy, saying "Wu-Tang is for the children."
