Over the last few weeks, rapper Kanye West has made headlines for more than a few negative reasons.
The 38-year-old has raised both concern and outrage with a series of almost-daily rants on his Twitter page – taking hits at everyone from singer Taylor Swift, to Macklemore all the while bigging himself up.
“If I’m not at the show next year then there is no show. Hi Grammys this is the most important living artist talking,” he ranted in reference to the 2017 Grammys.
Yeezy was also fuming over music producer Bob Ezrin’s poor review on his Life of Pablo album. “Bro you said Macklemore was more important musically than me… no offense to Macklemore, he’s a nice human being!”
“I’m tired of old people that have no connection with anything trying to comment on music! 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,” he outrageously concluded.
And now, a new report from Us weekly claims Kanye’s unpredictable personality is taking a toll on wife Kim, who recently gave birth to the couple’s second child.
An example of Kanye’s temperamental tweets.
“Kim is very concerned and frustrated. She and Kanye are having big problems that are escalating,” a family insider told the publication.
“Kim has demanded that Kanye get therapy.”
But despite Kim’s pleas for her hot-headed hubby to seek help, it appears that the father-of-two is in no hurry to change his ways.
“The world needs a guy like me. I love me so much right now,” he tweeted yesterday before also sending out this message to his 19.5 million followers: “I’m not crazy, I’m free.”
Just last week, reports were claiming that the mother-of-two had given her husband “one final chance to change his ways” before she files for divorce, but that was before her concerns escalated further following this foul-mouth rant that was secretly recorded before he took the stage on Saturday Night Live.
In the explicit rant, the increasingly erratic Kanye referred to the shows staff as “white motherfkers” and yelled, “don’t fk with me” repeatedly, all because they had apparently altered the set for his performance.
In the audio tape, obtained by the New York Post newspaper, the Gold Digger singer can also be heard calling Taylor Swift a “fake ass” after he released a song called Famous in which he raps misogynistic comments about her, and claims responsibility for the success of her career with the lyric – “I made that b**ch famous”.
The backstage tirade allegedly became so out of hand that Kim was forced to intervene.
“Kim, who was in the audience had to come down,” a source explained.
The parents of North and baby Saint put on a united front last week but behind-the-scenes, insiders say cracks are starting to show.
The Selfie author’s reported concern for her husband’s echoes that of her family, who have apparently grown wary with the rappers antics.
“They think he’s acting totally crazy and don’t know what’s going on,” a Kardashian family insider told the Daily News’ Confidenti@l last week.
