No one grabs attention with epic rants like Kanye West. The Life Of Pablo rapper who is currently riding the high of his album's success took the opportunity to sound off once again. After news circulated that Taylor Swift threw subtle shade at him for his comments about her on the song "Famous," Yeezus decided to respond via a rant about the pop star and TIDAL while at 1OAK in Hollywood.
From going off script at a Hurricane Katrina benefit concert dissing former President George Bush to recently going postal via Twitter dissing rapper Wiz Khalifa and his ex model/actress Amber Rose, Yeezus has no filter. If something is on the rapper's mind nothing is going to get in the way of him saying it, even if it causes public uproar.
According to HotNewHipHop, West premiered a new song at rapper Yo Gotti's album release party. In true Yeezus fashion, before premiering the track, he went on a 9-minute rant going off about Swift and TIDAL.
On The Life Of Pablo, the rapper addresses Swift on a song titled "Famous" saying that he is responsible for the pop star's success in the music industry. The rapper also says in the song that he thinks him and Swift might have sex. Of course, social media went crazy with the pop star's fan base dissing the rapper and the 26-year-old throwing shade at Yeezus during her acceptance speech for "Album Of The Year" at the Grammys.

While the rapper already addressed his feeling about the pop star on Twitter, he decided to elaborate more to the crowd. " I talked with my wife about it, West told the crowd. " I said, 'How do you feel about this line Taylor?' She said 'oooh, Kanye, I like that line! The she won the award and said something completely different." In terms of TIDAL, the rapper's rant was more of supporting Jay Z and his contributions to the music industry.

"Do you know what Hov had to go through to make music for y'all?' Kanye tells the crowd. " Y'all have Blueprint 1 but y'all act like TIDAL wack. That man fought to buy a streaming company. "Bro, we changing the paradigm right now. If y'all love me, if y'all love Hov, if y'all love the music that we made for y'all, I need y'all to sign up for TIDAL tonight and change the paradigm."
After his spiel, the rapper then introduced his new song featuring Sampha.
