Quote: "I got in trouble on Twitter saying Kanye West was an idiot. I still think he's an idiot... Kanye West can't write, sing or play. So I have trouble with him as anything but a poser. Produce?

Veteran rocker David Crosby is not backing down on social media comments he made about rapped Kanye.
Quote: "Punk? There's no excuse for making bad music, man. Just because you're being rude and frighteningly dramatic doesn't mean you can't have songs.

Veteran rocker David Crosby is still a musical purist after 50 years in the industry.
