Kanye had another Yeezus tour show Sunday night — so you know another rant took place.
In a strange turn of events, rocker Lenny Kravitz was the subject of the rant as Kanye went on about fashion, Paris, and of course geniuses.
Kanye said:
“It’s so funny when people compliment me and they say the word ‘genius’ as if that somehow separates me from other rappers in some way…I need you all to realize that Jay Z is a genius, and Drake is a genius…we are the modern day poets, obviously.”
He continued,
“There wouldn’t be no song called ‘N****s in Paris’ without Lenny Kravitz, because he was the first n**** in Paris. Lenny has the best taste and the dopest crib in Paris …he designs furniture and he had been working on a clothing line for a long time … I said, ‘Wait a second, I’ve got a dream of doing a clothing line.’ You know what the billionaires told me while I was in Paris? They said Lenny wanted the same thing, like it was a joke.?.?. There wouldn’t be no Kanye West if it wasn’t for Lenny Kravitz. The only difference is I turn up on those n****s, I don’t give a [bleep] about looking cool or being cool, and this is no disrespect to Lenny.”
The NY Post reports Lenny was embarrassed by Kanye’s words:
While an embarrassed Kravitz was heard saying, “He doesn’t know I’m here,” Kanye continued, “Have you heard anyone talk [bleep] about Lenny Kravitz? He’s a nice guy, he’s so well mannered. I envy people who are extremely likeable, I’m like, ‘Damn, I wish I could be likable like that.’ ”
Luckily he didn’t say anything negative about Lenny…
