Yesterday, rumours were circulating that Kanye had something of a meltdown backstage during his appearance on SNL - in short, he was reportedly toying with the idea of not doing the show. So it was only a matter of time before Page Six got the audio of it. Everyone from Us Weekly, to Variety, from Buzzfeed, to Uproxx, and everyone in between is carrying said audio - which, needless to say, contains expletives.
Said rant includes the usual stuff, comments like he's "50% more influential than any other human being" such as "Stanley Krewbrik, Apostle Paul, Picasso, f*cking Picasso and Escobar". There's also the repeated refrain of "Don’t f*ck with me!"
The main part of the tirade that seems to be generating the most interest are his comments involving Taylor Swift - which came before her Grammy Speech on Monday, which were instigated by his "misogynistic" lyric "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous."
“Look at that sh*t, they took my f**kin’ stage off of ‘SNL’ without asking me... Now I’m bummed. That and Taylor Swift, fake a**... Now I ain’t gonna do this. We’re gonna break the motherf**king Internet."
Mission accomplished.
In other Kanye news; remember he was asking Mark Zuckerberg to donate him a few bob to fund his ideas, as he's $53 million in debt? Given Zuckerberg liked a Facebook post trolling Kanye's bid for funding.
