Kanye West and Twitter rants go together like Kim Kardashian and butt selfies. The rapper uses the social media platform to express his innermost feelings, and unlike Instagram, there is no filter.
In his latest diatribe, he defends Caitlyn Jenner, praises Rihanna and goes berserk on a media outlet that was critical of his Yeezy Season 3 collection.
MediaTakeOut described the Yeezy extravaganza as a “shit show” that “completely underwhelmed” fashion critics.
“In fact, the clothes looked THE SAME as his last season – a bunch of torn rags for $ 2,000,” states the site.
Now, we all know that Kanye doesn’t take kindly to criticism, and if you dare to utter a dark word about him, you shall feel his wrath on Twitter.
He shot back:
“Now – Media Takeout – always remember that you dissed the collection that changed the world.”
It changed the world? Already? I kinda feel the same as I did Thursday but maybe that’s just me.
Of course, Kanye doesn’t care that Twitter limits posts to 140 characters, he just tweets and tweets and tweets. We won’t include them all, but here are some of his other gems:
“You seem like the type of organization hired to always keep dreamers down… when certain things in history happen you just got to respect it…”
“you probably got bootleg Yeezy’s on right now…”
“I’m a human being… I’m an artist, bro…”
“I’ve given everything I had for this moment… a lot of people feel it’s the paradigm shift …”
“Your site is entertaining and hilarious but certain things are just too far… you have no idea what I’ve had to go through …”
“Too far” meaning anything negative about Kanye.
Kanye also took a moment to say some kind words about his stepfather-in-law Caitlyn Jenner, who he appeared with in a photo that the site had posted.

We’re happy to hear he and Cait are on good terms. The transgender icon reportedly took issue with a diss track Kanye was said to record that featured transphobic lyrics. After speaking with Caitlyn, he canceled the song (if it ever existed in the first place).
Kanye also had some positive words for Rihanna, who debuted her Fenty x Puma Collection at New York Fashion Week on Friday.
Wow the paradigm has shifted, She killed it… everything is changed now!!!! Lil Sis kiiiiiiiilled this shit!!!!!!! pic.twitter.com/tpODCa0e9p

Earlier in the week, ‘Ye went off on Puma for offering his sister-in-law Kylie Jenner a cool million bucks to serve as their sponsor.
“1000% there will never be a Kylie Puma anything. That’s on my family! 1000% Kylie is on Yeezy team!!!”
Yeezus. We don’t know what’s going on in that man’s brain, but we’re pretty sure it’s exhausting.
