Don’t ask me why, but there’s an online petition trying to stop Kanye West from headlining Glastonbury this summer. And it has over 53,000 names on the list.

Neil Lonsdale, a man from Norfolk, was upset that Kanye got the nod to be the headlining act, so he decided to do something about it. Taking to Change.org, Neil started this petition and wrote:

"Kanye West is an insult to music fans all over the world. We spend hundreds of pounds to attend glasto, and by doing so, expect a certain level of entertainment.

"Kanye has been very outspoken on his views on music... he should listen to his own advice and pass his headline slot on to someone deserving! "Lets prevent this musical injustice now!"

In response to this petition though, a tumblr has been set up, mocking people who don't understand the talent which goes into rap music.

If, and only if, some sort of change occurs from this petition, we'll let you know.
