Rapper Kanye West says the music industry is not fair towards black artists.
The 35-year-old 'Stronger' hitmaker said white singers have an unfair advantage when it comes to award shows as they are almost always likely to win, reported Sun online.
"Taylor Swift beat Beyonce at the Grammys? Beyonce be dancing in heels... We need the music business to be evened out and fair. I've never won a Grammy against a white artist... We can create a human utopia if we try," he said.
West, who is expecting his first child with girlfriend Kim Kardashian, gave the 20-minute rant during his London concert.
