Over the weekend, Kanye made a playful joke on Twitter, regarding Britney Spears holding the number 1 spot on iTunes with his new single with Jay, “H.A.M.”, trailing right behind. “@britneyspears: Yo britney, I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you be #1, but me and jay-z single is one of the best songs of all time,†he’d tweeted. He later added an LOL to make sure everyone knew what it was…a joke!! A reference to a very bad incident with him and T. Swift in 09. But of course the media took it out of porportion, with MSNBC saying he tried to start a “Twitter War” with Brit Brit. Read Ye’s reply after the jump!
Just saw that MSNBC said I tried to start a twitter war with Brittany. This shit takes the air out my lungs sometimes from blogs to news reports… enough already!!! All I do is focus on my work.There’s a new lie everyday… a new media spin… I never got a watch with my face on it!!! A company tried to give that to me 9 yrs ago! I’m one of the most considerate people in real life. Maybe over considerate. Over caring. Overly real. There is no astronaut training for celebrity… even though this whole life is so outer space! When I said the comment about Brittany I was giving her props for being #1 not dissing her at all! I was actually surprised that a record as raw as H*A*M could make it to #2 on Itunes. How can u “let” someone be number one??!! That was the whole joke!!! I know intelligent people know this so bear with me.When I said the comment about Brittney I was giving her props for being #1 not dissing her at all! If the media wants to make a story … just say I have atrocious spelling an terrible grammar…But stop making it seem that my aim is to hurt or down people! That’s just not my style! As pop stars we’re all in this shit together! We on the inside of the TV! Here to to entertain and be scrutinized to the smallest fibers of our being!
Sheesh! Let the man breatheeee!
