    By Roman Wolfe

    Rapper Kanye West was named International Man of the Year at the GQ Awards last night (September 4) in London.

     

    The 10th Annual Awards ceremony took place at Covent Garden's Royal Opera House in London and was hosted by music legend Sir Elton John.

     

    A panel of GQ experts selected West for the award, which was presented to him by actress Rosario Dawson.

     

    Other winners included Sir Michael Caine (Lifetime Achievement Award), singer James Blunt (Solo Artist of the Year), Tracey Emin (Woman of the Year), while stars like Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Lily Allen, Jude Law and others were in attendance.

     

    Previous GQ Men of the Year include Jay-Z, Sir Paul McCartney, director Pedro Almodovar and Jennifer Aniston.

    In nightmares I dream my flows weak
    I lose rap battles to better MC's
    but it crazy i wake up in the morning and feel bad
    then i realize i was battling me
    I have a problem with reasonalbe folks
    Me myself, i'm unreasonably going after my goals
    but employers look at me like I didn't even graduate
    I have my degree I didn't drop out like Kanye
    I passed test because I was inspired from Kanye's first ish
    I wrote my whole thesis about his verses

    kanye congratulations. You life has nirvana written all over it.

    Kanye did it again, I wonder how 50 will try and make this seem small as well.  The dude does his thing and he does it well, Big Up Kanye, keep up the good work, and for those of you who don't have Common's joint, you should get it, Kanye did an amazing job on production.

    50 will probably have some slick shit to say. 50 is like a child star, he'll self destruct (no pun intended) without all the attention
