Kanye West has never been one to bite his tongue, but diss Jay-Z…that's a different story.
Putting the duo's 2011-2012 "Watch the Throne" tour to the side, the loquacious rapper hit the stage during his show in London Saturday and sounded off aboutJay-Z and Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie."
"I got love for Hov, but I ain't f--king with that 'Suit & Tie," Kim Kardashian's baby daddy told the crowd as an instrumental "Clique" played in the background, which features him and Jay-Z.
And that was just the beginning of Kanye's rant about the music industry.
"I hate business people," West rapped, according to Billboard. "People get on the phone with me and tell me, 'What kind of business can you do, though? What type of business are you doing? What's the numbers? How much did you sell? What's the radio spins? How much shampoo can you sell with your face on it and sh-t. Remind me again why we in this sh-t. Can you remind me again why we in this sh-t? Since when [is] making music about getting rich? Since when was making art about getting rich?...Remind me again why we in this sh-t. Remind me again why the Grammys couldn't suck my d-ck."
Oh, yes, there was even more during the 10-minute rapped speech.
"Can I sell a drink for you, please?" West continued. "So you can help me put on a better show. Please corporations. Can you please support me? I swear I'm a nice ni--a now. I swear I'll put the pink polo back on. I swear to you. Please. Just for three million dollars. I need it so bad. I need a new pool in my backyard. I tell my fans your sh-t is cool. And if they believe in me they should also believe in you. What's my public rating now? Are they liking me again? They forgot about the whole Beyoncé thing right? Okay, cool."
Last week, Jay-Z and Timberlake officially announced that they will embark on a tour together, performing in 12 cities this summer.
Something tells us West won't be making an appearance.
