Kanye West: Rapper apologises for Twitter rant, Report

Kanye West has told a veteran music producer Bob Ezrin never to speak to him again, after he criticised the rapper online.

Ezrin, who has worked with some of the biggest names in the music industry, wrote that Kanye ‘isn’t on the creative level of some other prominent artists’ in the Lefsetz Letter on Monday.

For the 38-year-old rapper, that was fighting talk – as on Tuesday he once again took to Twitter to vent his emotions.

I really didn’t mean to use the B word tonight … all positive vibes

“I really didn’t mean to use the B word tonight … all positive vibes,” West tweeted early Wednesday morning. It’s not clear when West used the “B word” unless he deleted the tweet or if by “B word” he meant “Bob Ezrin.”

“Has anybody ever heard for Bob Ezrin???” he began. “What the f**k does he know about rap… I’m tired of old people that have no connection with anything trying to comment on music!”

West went on to take aim at Ezrin’s family, tweeting, “Your kids are ashamed of their dad… Sorry for speaking about kids… but could you imagine if you were Bob Ezrin’s kids… I’m so sorry for them… I will send them free Yeezys to make up for the embarrassment that you have caused your family!”

The hot-headed star also didn’t hesitate to call out fellow musicians Swift and Macklemore.

“Bro you said Macklemore was more important musically than me… no offense to Macklemore, he’s a nice human being!” West tweeted, later writing of Swift: “I made Dark Fantasy and Watch the Throne in one year and wasn’t nominated for either and you know who has 2 albums of the year.”
