The singer was baffled when Kanye stage-invaded during the Grammy Awards, and can't understand why Kanye thinks he "runs the music business".

Speaking in the new issue of NME magazine, Noel said: "I read on the papers that he got on stage at the Grammys and said to Beck, 'You should respect artistry and give Beyonce that award.'

"That **** needs to look up the description of the word 'artistry'. If Beck, the player of 14 instruments is not an artist then f**k me.

"Kanye's a f***ing dumbass.

"His interview with Zane Lowe a couple of years ago was f***ing priceless, but he does have this thing where he thinks he runs the music business."

He goes on to insist that Kanye wouldn't have a chance if he tried to pull a similar stunt around him.

"Imagine if he'd got up at the BRITs in the 90s, I'd have knocked him out."

Noel didn't have any kind words for Grammy winner Sam Smith, either, saying: "Sam Smith just stands there like Boy George in a coma."
