Kanye West & Jimmy Kimmel Feud Over Interview Spoof

    Jimmy Kimmel created a spoof of Kanye West’s recent interview on BBC Radio 1. The spoof, which aired on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, featured children reenacting West’s interview with BBC Radio 1’s Zane Lowe.

    Before airing the spoof, Jimmy Kimmel also joked about the interview.

    “You’re not gonna believe this, but he said a lot of weird stuff,” Kimmel said of West’s interview in a monologue. “He said he was the #1 rockstar on the planet, whatever planet he’s on, and a lot of other great stuff about himself. Does Kanye West know you’re not supposed to be your own hype man? I don’t know if it’s a money-saving thing, but I liked it.” 

    The spoof can be viewed below.

    Jimmy Kimmel Says Kanye West Called Himself Tupac

    During his show, Jimmy Kimmel also spoke about this exchange. 

    “He’s very angry becasue of a bit we made this week,” “We just had kids say the stuff Kanye said. Apparently, this upset him. He called me. He said a lot of things. He said I had two choices. He said #1 was to apologize publicly. That was really the only choice. The other choice he gave was, ‘Your life is gonna be much better if you apologize.’ And then he started tweeting today.

    “By the way, he told me on the phone, and I swear to God this is true, he said, ‘I am the most powerful voice in media,'” Kimmel continued. “He said, ‘I am ‘Pac’ a few times to me. He said, ‘You’ll never be able to show your face at a 14 year old’s high school football game and be cool again. He really is ‘Pac. That’s right out of the Tupac playbook, isn’t it? I don’t know. I don’t understand it. The bit was, I thought, pretty innocuous, but finally I’m in a Rap feud.”

    1. just by kanye addressing it brought more attention to it and also tweeting made it so much more funnier on jimmy kimmels behalf….his anger really is his downfall….jimmy kimmel is funny for this, sorry kanye, sometimes you have to learn to laugh at yourslef and let shit go…

      1. why the comparison? drake makes more radio friendly music. Is hammer better than kanye as well? that album went ham.

      2. Which album did Drake outsell Kanye with? Maybe their new batch of Albums but Kanye has sold more then Drake on every album so far before these latest ones so STFU

      3. “every album so far before these latest ones ”

        the lastest ones count so you cant really say every album dumbass.

    2. kayne west is the biggest douche bag in hip hop hands down. He’s not even that good and never switches up his flow, it’s old and dried out like old crators of rivers on Mars. He ain’t go nothing good to say money got to him. The old Chicago Ye was good though, I’m pretty sure he hateeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees white people!!! Always causing a problem with some famous white dude it’s really weird. Racism goes both ways and I def. think he is a double standard piece of shit! No artist should ever go on stage and take an award from another artist, fucking loser.

    3. Kanye is probably the biggest piece of shit hip hop has ever seen. Fuckin twitter rants like a whiney little bitch. Liked him better when he was quiet and JUST producing.

    4. kanyes a piece of shit porch monkey.. u aint pac u haven’t surpassed Michael Jackson, its all in your head.. u whine and bitch about the papparrazi/media yet u seek attention like your slut girlfriend..

    5. Take notes world. HOW NOT TO ACT WHEN YOU GET SOME MONEY!!! Every other day another fuckin rant like a little bitch. Beanie Siegel shoulda let them gangstas from philly rob his ass.

    6. Lol Kanye’s funny man. As to you sensitive little hoes bitching about him being an asshole, Jimmy Lionel isn’t funny, never was and his opener for the spoof is reason enough to diss him back, especially since apparently Kanye was at his family Wedding and shit. Makes Kimmel look like a straight hoe

      1. spoof
        spoof/
        informal
        noun
        noun: spoof;plural noun: spoofs

        1. a humorous imitation of something, typically a film or a particular genre of film, in which its characteristic features are exaggerated for comic effect.

      2. The difference being, Kanye can be a hoe but already he’s funny, and the dude with the spoof definition, thanks how long did it take you to search that you dumb fuck, my point was the opening introduction in which Kimmel talks mad shit on Kanye and how the media loves to take half a story. I thought the spoof was ehh funniest part being the milkshakes but Kimmel deserves a backlash just for the introduction. He won’t get it because he targeted someone who is publicly hated by Ignorant retards of society.

      3. ignorant retards of society? whoa there

        im an ignorant retard because i hate kanye wests attitude and how full of himself he is?? what the fuck has he done that makes him feel hes so great and god like?? hes not a rock star, hes not pac and he hasnt made decent music in years.

      4. So he has high self esteem, what exactly does that have to do with your Life or your endeavors, is he showing up at your job Slapping your boss and and bragging how he has more money than all of you while fucking your mom and wife in a hideous threesum of Shame? Then I don’t see what your issue is. Don’t like him, cool move on with your shit. Haha and hasn’t made good music in years… like Yeezus wasn’t atleast half good or the Good Music comp album wasn’t decent not even gonna get started on MDBTF and WTT

      5. A revolutionary i’snt concerned with Steve Jobs, Anna Winter and YSL Fashion shows Im sorry..
        There are bigger issues going on my revolutionry other than leather joggging pants
        You are not age against the machine.

    7. Kanye, needs to get his priorities right and respond to Papoose and every other dude that has dissed him (with good reason, such as leather skirts). Those tweets just made ‘Ye look even more like a bitch, Kimmel didn’t have to do anything, Kanye ethered himself!

    8. kanye is a fool. im glad jimmy clowned him for that shit..

      leather fucking sweatpants? LMAO this nigga is tripping

      I hope someone kills him just like they did Pac or at least robs and put a couple holes in him so mayne he stops being such an assclown

    9. how can he get mad if the kids said exactly the same shit he said in the interview! he should be mad at himself for giving them so much material to work with.

    10. Kanye gave Jimmy Kimmel the best possible reaction he could have asked for and gave him even more material for his show and for the world to laugh at Kanye some more for being so fucking full of himself when he hasnt really done shit in the grand scheme of things.

      1. Good pussy = pussy that been ran through by rappers, actors and ball players and even got banged out on video for the world to see

    11. even Jimmy’s wife is clowning this fool

      Molly McNearney @mollymcnearney 12h

      Does anyone know a good pussy therapist? #NODISRESPECTTOBENAFFLECK

      1. wow. 50 is no where near the level of bitch nigga kanye is. you dont gotta like him but respect that hes one of the only real niggas lest

    12. Kanye: “… oh no that means you would have gotten too much good pussy in your life…” Kimmel: “Yeah, I’ve seen the video.”

      LMAO. I love Yeezy’s music but he just got fucking pwned.

    13. “The first piece of honest media in years”

      This is why I cannot support anything Kanye does. He is just too full of himself. Does he honestly believe his interview where he talked about leather sweatpants was the only honest media in years? LMAO

    14. why they had to give the kid grey hair though? i know kanye aint going grey like that yet and if he was he would be dying or painting that shit so know one would know hes insecure like that

      1. thats like wave grease and the lighting in the studio, trust me that lil kid head was slicked to the fucking scalp, when ever people put wave grease in their hair they use to much and that shit goes from oily to looking solid, and having that greyish color

    15. “I am the most powerful voice in media”

      Narcissism is a term that originated with Narcissus in Greek mythology who fell in love with his own image reflected in a pool of water. Currently it is used to describe a person characterized by egotism, vanity, pride, or selfishness; an erotic gratification derived from admiration of one’s own physical or mental attributes.

    16. Its cool for Kanye to take shots at Ray J or Kris Humprhies but the minute you mock him its too far!!!

      #BITCHNIGGASHIT

    17. I feel bad for North West or whatever the fuck that babies name is.

      Just imagine having this immature diva as your father! shit ain’t fair.

    18. Don’t got time to watch that whole Kanye interview but did they really have milkshakes like in the spoof video? That was like the funniest part to me and I could totally see Yeezy sippin on a milkshake mid interview

    19. VLAD TV CONFIRMED IT.. The Yeezus album was about being rejected by the fashion industry,,,, Who the fuck can releate to that..???
      Yes Kanye was amazing but he fell the fuck off now… Take that L

    20. 50 feeds kids in Africa, makes no noise. Hov goes and puts water pumps in Africa, visits schools here in America, donates to good causes and makes no noise. Jeezy and quite a few others help the community and keep it moving. This nigga wants to design leather pants and sneakers and thinks we all owe him something and hes Pac now???

    21. What Kanye dont understand is EVERY famous person get made fun of. How many celebrities did Saturday Night Live make fun of? Almost all of them. And how many of them went on a rant against SNL? None. Its satire, its comedy. It comes with the territory of being famous. Kim K gets spoofed all the time. Kanye is not exempt, as much as he think he should be cuz hes a god but hes not. Jay Pharoah from SNL made fun of Jay Z so many times and Hov just laughed. Kanye takes everything too personal.

    22. This fool is always crying about something

      MTV doesnt put him high enough on the top MC list.. I gave Sway his first TV

      Jimmy Kimmel spoofs his interview.. I went to his familys wedding

      Just shut the fuck up already.. you chose this life you little bitch.

      1. yeah but the whole world got to see her getting fucked by ray j so she could have that bread. she and kanye gotta live with that for the rest of their lives and im sure its gotta bother kanye a little

    23. It’s bad when you take an L and there aren’t any dickriders on HHDX to defend you, at least Drake, Gucci, Ross, Jay z, Wayne and any rapper that ever had a buzz little or none have support whether it makes sense or not at least somebody likes them. He has outdouched Dame Dash.

      1. Nah we support him we just think this is funny as hell. Kanye stans aren’t as over the top as the other artist’s stans you’ve mentioned

      1. Oh, I just thought everything on this site was about Drake now. I was baffled as to why they were covering something that wasn’t about their beloved Drake.

    24. the gayness is jus oozin off him if would come out the closet already his emotions wouldn’t run so high. this has to be the most immature popular person ever in history of entertainment and then he thinks he’s 2pac wow the world jus needs to destroy him for that

      1. oh and good pussy is nice and tight not loose and everybody’s else’s nut juice lube job all over it for the world to see

    25. Gucci Mane = realest rapper ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      – T.I. snitch to the feds
      – Young Jeezy was never bmf
      – 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
      – Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g shit but never did g shit.

      1. – Gucci mane has twitter meltdowns like a woman and then says his shit got hacked, then deletes his twitter only to come back and apologize to everyone and say hes addicted to cough syrup LMAO yeah thats a real nigga

    26. Kanye would have been my favorite rapper had social media not became so big. Now that I have to hear his emotionally saturated opinion & am able to view his dumb decisions publicly it’s hard to just appreciate the man’s music. I wish he would stop talking so much. All of the back & forth on Twitter reminds me of when girls used to argue in grade school.

    27. WOW way overboard Kanye needs his mom back he’s not be the same since. Its too bad she had to go so soon cuz he’s going to kill his career soon, I’m a fan but man!! what happen to you dude your losing it! and Fast!!!

    28. Anyone ever notice HipHopDX always makes the artist look as suspect as possible with the pictures they choose? They don’t choose a recent picture, which would give more context to the story. Instead, it seems that they choose the picture that would be most embarrassing to the artist. Check out any Lupe or Jay-Z post and tell me that’s not true.

      HipHopDX has the easiest to comprehend web design of all hip hop sites. If it wasn’t for that I would never come here. The writing is always terrible.

      Sorry for ranting.

    29. WHEN DID ROCKSTARS ACT LIKE THAT KANYE? HUH?

      SENSITIVE LIL BITCH.

      WHEN DO ROCKSTARS WHINE AND BITCH THE WAY HE DOES?

      LEATHER JOGGING PANTS ???? WEIRDO.

      1. I hope you don’t like rap then, because most of these rappers besides Gucci (who is trash, don’t get me wrong), are wearing leather. Did you see the BET Awards?

      2. wearing leather and trying to take credit for leather jogging pants if a lil different… but fuck anyone wearing leather.. homo shit

    30. This is dumb. It’s obviously a joke between the two. Not like this dude didn’t have everyone talking about a girl twerking on fire and trolling last week. Look past the headlines. DX is the rap game TMZ

    31. i like kanye but that interview made literally no sense! he was half promoting himself half making up words….the fuck?!?!

    32. Gucci Mane is the realest rapper and heres why.

      – all other rappers rap about being gangster shooting and killing but they havent done it.
      – Eminem raps about killing he hasnt.
      – Jay z raps in open letter about sending shots he hasnt.
      – T.I. snitch to the feds
      – Young Jeezy was never bmf
      – 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
      – Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – Snoop was never a crip
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherf*cker.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest cowards in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g sh*t but never did g sh*t.
      – Most of the rappers rap about stuff they havent done yet you all support them and say its real rap.
      – When rick ross does it you all claim he is fake and say its fake rap.

      This shows that hiphop fans are hypocritical and all these real hiphop fan wanna be’s are just some unjustified haters whose opinions are just as irrelevent as the swag fag rapper fans.

      BIG GUWOP KILLED A MAN HE WAS A DRUG DEALER BEFORE RAPPER HE HAS STREET CREDENTIALS HE IS THE ONLY RAPPER THAT RAPS ABOUT FACTS THERE FORE BIG GUWOP IS THE REALEST RAPPER IN THE RAP GAME AND THATS A FACT!

    33. in a way Kanye West is a victim..he actually bought into all the white hipster music “journalists” who started calling him a musical genius..he actually started believing that shit..and this is the end result..a humorless, self serious minstrel who dresses up like a clown for middle class 19 year olds..a clear cut case of “the emperor’s new clothes”…there is absolutely nothing going on here..but everyone is too blinded by the manufactured “importance” to tell the poor guy he is standing naked

    34. jigsaw ressurected the girl from the ring video in part 3, disecting freddy in 3 while watching i still know what you did last summer.
