The latest in an ever-growing litany of online attacks, Kanye West rants about Justin Bieber and John Legend in his recent social media tirade.
Earlier this week, the embattled rapper made headlines when he wore a “White Lives Matter” shirt to his Yeezy fashion show in Paris, and the following day, sparked controversy again when he publicly criticized fashion editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson.
On Wednesday (10.05), West took to Instagram and called out celebrities including Justin’s wife Hailey Bieber, who spoke out about his divisive actions, writing:
“I wanna just let everybody know there was also some fashion this week also.” “There was a major thing called Fashion Week which really last a month and there were some very well done crazy overpriced clothes being shown.” “Beuase you’re all f**king programmed sheep. Aaaaaaaaand those boots Gab was wearing were f**king traaaaaaaaaaash (sic),” referring to the Timberland boots Gabriella wore to a fashion week show. “But I’m sure John Legend still wants a pair. And Justin get your girl before I get mad.”
In addition, Kanye posted a screenshot of an article about Hailey calling him out over his treatment of Gabriella and added: “Wait Am I canceled again??? Justin please let me know (sic).” And he attempted to justify his White Lives Matter T-shirt by calling it “paradigm shifting”.
White Lives Matter is a white supremacist phrase as a racist response to the Black Lives Matter civil rights movement.
“Just kidding. My tee s**t on everybody’s showssss. Nothing happened but my T-shirt. To the Arnaults that hire anybody that worked for me, remember my one T-shirt took allllll the attention (sic),” Yeezy added, lashing out at Louis Vuitton executive Bernard Arnault.
