The Hip Hop community uttered a collective “WTF” when Kanye West delivered “Lift Yourself” on Friday night (April 27).
As the track begins, it sounds like it’s about to be another straightforward Yeezy production but when he starts to speak, things (unsurprisingly) get wonky.
Although Ye initially promises the next verse is going to be explosive, instead we get the Chi-Town native rapping, “Poopy-di scoop/Scoop-diddy-whoop/Whoop-di-scoop-di-poop/Poop-di-scoopty.”
Naturally, the internet was set ablaze with reactions to Kanye’s bizarre “song” and people were quick to chime in with their colorful opinions.

T-Pain tweeted, “When ye said ‘Scoopdity poop’ I felt that,'” while Your Old Droog joked that “Scoopity poop” would be better than “your next album.”
Ye followed up with “Ye Vs. The People” featuring T.I. on Saturday morning (April 28), which found the two Hip Hop vets debating Donald Trump, their political stances and how Ye’s actions can have profound consequences on his career.
Meanwhile, Kanye is preparing to release his next solo album on June 1 and currently toying with the idea of using the face of Jan Adams — his late mother’s plastic surgeon — as the cover art.
