Oh, Kanye, you've done it again. You literally cannot go a single day without looking like an absolute loon. For real, where are your managers, your family, your wife, ANYONE to help you see the errors of your ways and tell you to shut the f*ck up?

In newly-released audio taken backstage at "Saturday Night Live," Kanye West can be heard having a ridiculous meltdown, telling a producer, "Don't f*ck with me," after someone allegedly moved a piece of his set.

The rapper can also be heard expressing his own greatness.

Just how great does Kanye think he is? Well, according to him, he's about "50 percent more influential” than Stanley Kubrick, Pablo Picasso, Paul the Apostle (you know, the guy who was picked by JESUS HIMSELF to deliver the good word).

Beyond extolling his own greatness, Kanye can also be heard calling Taylor Swift a "fake ass" (guess that feud is still on).

Still, perhaps we should give Kanye the benefit of the doubt.

A source allegedly close to Kanye told PEOPLE,

This audio was secretly recorded while he was venting his frustration in a private moment with his team. He found out his stage design was changed and taken apart under the direction of the show's lighting director without anyone's approval.

Listen to all of Kanye's insanity in all its glory in the video below.
