Kanye gave the L.A. Times a piece of his mind last night. Apparently, he was upset that writer, Chris Lee incorrectly called his album, My Dark Twisted Fantasy. In turn, Kanye let his fingers do the talking and vented on his Twitter account. Shortly after, he deleted the tweets. Maybe Chris’ apology had something to do with it. In any event, Sean did a screen grab of the rant, so here it is below.

I would’ve taking offense 2 the LA Times review of the movie but the extremely condescending writer accidentally complimented my suit! Thx. I believe the writers name was Kriss Lee who so bent on giving a soulless description of my work that he decided to call the album…not even by the write name…ironically but I feel more strategically removing the word ‘Beautiful’ from the title! Woooooooooow! I assumed a respected media source lie the Los Angeles Time would send a write that would at least have the respect to call the album…by it’s proper title. It’s called “MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY” Kriss…Even if your goal was to perpetuate non-positive…thought  association. You see what happens when you write with a negative agenda. You have the entire Los Angeles Time’s coming off…like a non credible news source that can’t even fact check a well publicized album title. How can anyone believe anything you ever write again? I feel sorry for the LA Times more than anything for missing the opportunity…

Yesterday, MTV’s Brain Trust named B.o.B. the ninth hottest MC in the game. Bobby Ray told 1515 that he was grateful for the honor.

“My personal challenge was to put an album out that was well-received. And to be able to do that and still get the lyrical crowd to pay attention shows me a lot. Because I have so much more energy that I can put into the content. It depends on the time and what the focus is. ‘Cause I really want to show everything, and there’s only so much you can show lyrically, with the amount of lyrics in an album. I feel like there’s still a lot more that I can do, and to let me know that people are checking for me let’s me know that it’s still there.”

And you say Chi City. During a recent show in their hometown, Count and Moonie surprised the audience with Crucial Conflict and a performance of “Hay”. Now that’s smokin’. Don’t Feed The Killaz Vol. 3 on October 31st.
