When Kanye West flounced onstage at this year's Grammy awards, he seemed to be mocking his own past.
In interviews after the event, though, he revealed that he believed Beck should hand his 'Album Of The Year' gong to Beyonce – in the name of “artistry”.
Cue all manner of think pieces on what it means to be an artist in the 21st century, with some – step forward, Noel Gallagher – using Yeezy's remarks as a (proverbial) stick to thwack Beyonce around the chops with.
Now brace yourself for an enormous, jaw-dropping irony: Beck's own father has worked with Beyonce.
Yep, David Campell is a hugely experienced arranger, having contributed to more than 450 gold and platinum records. As pointed out on Reddit, Campbell worked on Beyonce's 2006 record 'B'Day', which – staggeringly – won a Grammy.
The world truly is a remarkable place, sometimes.
