KANYE WEST CATCHES MORE SHOTS FROM TAYLOR SWIFT PRODUCER: ‘HE NEEDS HIS DIAPER CHANGED’..
Kanye West has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way over the years, and Jack Antonoff is clearly one of them.
During an interview with the Los Angeles Times that was published on Wednesday (February 28), The Bleachers frontman made it very clear that he is protective of his friend Taylor Swift, who he has worked closely with over the past decade as a co-writer and producer.
“I’m a little bitch sometimes,” he said. “But you come after my friend Taylor, you’re toast to me.”
Shifting his attention to Ye, who has had a tumultuous relationship with the singer-songwriter for years now, the 39-year-old said he’s fed up of the mogul’s antics and that he “just needs his diaper changed so badly.”
Antonoff added: “It’s been a long time since I would’ve taken Kanye’s call. I’m so incredibly bored when someone doesn’t have the sauce anymore, so they go elsewhere to shock. It’s just a remarkable waste of space.”
Earlier this year, Antonoff took to Twitter upon learning that the second installment of Ye and Ty Dolla $ign’s Vultures trilogy will drop on March 8, which happens to be the same day his band will unveil their next project.“Kanye on bleachers release date is hilarious little cry baby bitch,” he wrote, which was reminiscent of his tweet from two years ago that read “Kanye a little bitch” amid the Chicago native’s earliest antisemitic rants.
In mid-February, the Yeezy boss addressed the backlash to his past remarks, which included praising Hitler and spreading conspiracy theories about Jewish people, and said: “They got the right to their opinion. I got the right to my opinion.
“We all have the right to our opinions but so many people will lose their jobs, lose their careers for taking the steps that we took. We went down for like a year and a half.”
He also talked about the fallout from the October 2022 tweet in which he said he was going to go “death con 3” on Jewish people, continuing: “I even sent the apology and [adidas] still fuck with me. Some of the stuff I was saying was true.
“So until y’all come up and say, ‘Yo, what he was saying, some of that was true,’ go ahead with all that … Black people can’t be antisemitic. We are Jews, you understand what I’m saying? We are Jew.”
He added: “For all the Jewish kids that love me, I’m sorry if y’all had to hear a grown up conversation with us screaming at each other, but we got to a point where something needed to happen, something needed to be said.”
