‘I am your OG and I will be respected as such,’ West tweeted to Wiz Khalifa, before unloading on his ex-girlfriend. But this is really about Kanye and Amber’s long, sordid history.
‘I am your OG and I will be respected as such,’ West tweeted to Wiz Khalifa, before unloading on his ex-girlfriend. But this is really about Kanye and Amber’s long, sordid history.
It came in response to Kanye changing the name of his upcoming album from Swish toWaves, with Wiz claiming the name “waves” belonged to Harlem rapper Max B, who released a string of Coke Waves mixtapes before being convicted on charges of aggravated assault, felony kidnapping, armed robbery, and murder. He’s currently serving a 75-year prison sentence.Max B is closely affiliated with fellow New York rapper French Montana, who is the ex-boyfriend of Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian.
West paid respect to Max B via a tweet, and things seemed to be on ice. Then, early Wednesday morning, rapper Wiz Khalifa fired off an innocuous tweet: “Hit this kk and become yourself.” Khalifa Kush (KK) is the name of the rapper’s strain of marijuana. In a 2014 interview, he discussed how he has people grow the strain specifically for him, and that same year, he released a song called “KK” with lines like, “I got my own weed, sucka / So I ain’t gotta hit yours.” KK are also the initials of Kanye’s ultra-famous wife, Kim Kardashian.
So Kanye, thinking Wiz was tweeting about his beloved wife, flew into a Twitter rage, verbally undressing every facet of the rapper’s existence, from his style (“I screen grabbed those pants and sent it to my style team”) to his music (“no one I know has ever listened to one of your albums all the way through”) to his JV status (“I am your OG and I will be respected as such”). A large portion of Kanye’s ire was directed at Wiz’s ex-wife, Amber Rose, and their child, with Kanye tweeting, “You let a stripper trap you” and “I know you mad every time you look at your child that this girl got you for 18 years”).
