It’s no secret thatKanye Westalmost bailed on his recentSaturday Night Liveappearance this past weekend, where he appeared alongside hostMelissa McCarthy. It has been widely reported that he had an epic meltdown prior to the show going live on the East Coast, and he verbally decimatedStudio 8H. The context of this rant has been captured for all to hear. And it is quite blistering to the ears.
This latest report comes fromPage Six. And if you listen, you’ll hear therapperdropping plenty of F-bombs as he warns those around him not to ‘F with me!’ He’s still quite mad at pop singerTaylor Swift, who he is quick to call a ‘fake ass’. The entire shouting fiasco is available for listen in the embed below.
The beef betweenKanye WestandTaylor Swifthas raged for quite some time. And it makes sense that this meltdown would happen on the eve of the Grammys. The rapper made quite a few disparaging remarks aboutSwifton his latest album. And she had her own response to the standoff while appearing the next day at the Grammys.
While all the disses aimed atTaylor Swiftwere expected, this rant has the rapper going off on astrange tangentabout how he’s “50% more influential than any other human being”. And he apparently means of all time, name checking such important historical figures as Apostle Paul, Pablo Escobar and director Stanley Kubrick. Here is a sample of what you will hear if you feel inclined to listen.
“Are they fucking crazy? Whoa by 50% Stanley Kubrick, Picasso, Apostle Paul, fucking Picasso and Escobar. By 50% more influential than any other human being. Don’t fuck with me. Don’t fuck with me. Don’t fuck with me. By 50% dead or alive, by 50% for the next 1,000 years.”
Inside sources claim thatKanye Westwas set off on this firestorm when he saw that the stage he would be performing on wasn’t set up to his specifications. And that the lighting wasn’t right. And now this video seems to back-up those early reports that he threw a major temper tantrum. At one point, it is said thatKim Kardashianwas pulled out of thelive audienceand asked to come back stage to tame the beast. It must have worked, as the rapper decided not to bail, and instead gave what can only be called a rather lackluster performance. It’s unclear if he’ll ever be asked back toSNLand Studio 8H. Take a listen to his tantrum here.
