It appears the great Kanye West has gone on yet another brief Twitter tirade.
This time, Kanye, who apparently goes on Twitter rants on all days ending in Y, went after music producer Bob Ezrin.
How would some relatively unknown and middle-aged music producer find himself in the midst of a Kanye sh*t storm?
Ezrin dared to cross Kanye's path after publishing a rather scathing newsletter on The Lefsetz Letter on February 22, in which he says,
Unlike other creators in his genre like Jay-Z, Tupac, Biggie or even M.C. Hammer for that matter, it’s unlikely that we’ll be quoting too many of Kanye’s songs 20 years from now. He didn’t open up new avenues of public discourse like NWA, or introduce the world to a new art form like Grandmaster Flash, or even meaningfully and memorably address social issues through his music like Marshall, Macklemore and Kendrick.
Ezrin continues in his post, saying Kanye's real talent does not lie in his music, but rather, his antics. He says,
What he is a true artist at is living his life out loud – and shoving it down the throats of the rest of us whether we give a shit or not. He’s like that flasher who interrupts a critical game by running naked across the field. Is that art???
BURN.
Of course, the second Kanye heard, he took to social media to share his thoughts with the world. Here's what he had to say.
