Yeezy launches all-caps rant on talk show host.
Kanye West went into full ‘I Am A God’ mode last night, taking to Twitter to chastise Jimmy Kimmel for a comedy skit that poked fun at the rap star’s recent interview with Zane Lowe (a headache-inducing must-see, if you’ve not already enjoyed it).
The sketch itself wasn’t that funny (scroll down to view it) but it was offensive enough to prod Kanye onto his soapbox, where he slammed Kimmel for trying to spoof “THE FIRST PIECE OF HONEST MEDIA IN YEARS”.
He also told Kimmel to “PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES”, adding “OH NO THAT MEANS YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN TOO MUCH GOOD PUSSY IN YOUR LIFE.” Gotta love him.
Kimmel responded by telling his studio audience about the phone call he’d received from Kanye, during which the rapper told him, “I am the most powerful voice in media. I am pop.”
Here’s a selection of the tweets plus one of the meme-like images Kanye posted in his own attempt at lampooning the talk show host; below that is the original Kimmel sketch:
