Kanye West Goes on Bizarre Rant Against Jimmy Kimmel
UPDATE (9/25): After Jimmy Kimmel responded, Kanye began tweeting a lengthy comment defending him from a Parisian photographer named Jibril Durimel. Choice tweet: "It's simple, mediocre dreamers think this is humorous but all Kanye is pretty much saying in the interview is to dream to be the best." Read the whole thing here.
Kanye West is not happy with Jimmy Kimmel, calling the talk show host a "MANIPULATIVE MEDIA MUTHERF-CKER" (Kanye's caps) and noting that "SARAH SILVERMAN IS A THOUSAND TIMES FUNNIER THAN YOU AND THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS IT!!!"
The anger (or alleged anger given Kimmel's penchant for pranks) apparently stems from the video posted yesterday, in which the host mocked the rapper's interview with BBC's Zane Lowe and brought in two kids to recreate the interview.
We'll let Kanye take it from here:
