Kim Kardashian West will do whatever it takes to defend her husband Kanye West.
The couple’s new Twitter feud began after Rhymefest, a rapper and songwriter who worked with Kanye on tracks “Jesus Walks” and “New Slaves,” accused Kanye of abandoning his hometown of Chicago.
Responding to a diss track Drake released on Friday — in which the Canadian rapper has some harsh words for Kanye — Rhymefest wrote, “I’m asking @Drake to
“Please contact @DondasHouse,” he added, referencing the non-profit organization dedicated to providing arts education for Chicago youths, which was named in honor of Kanye’s late mother.
After releasing his diss track “Duppy Music,” Drake, 31, also shared an image on social media of an invoice for $100,000. It was addressed to Kanye’s music label, G.O.O.D. Music, for “promotional assistance and career reviving.”
“You’re welcome,” Drake captioned the image. While it’s unclear whether the invoice was real, Drake’s diss track came as a response to “Infared,” a song from Pusha T’s new album DAYTONA — which Kanye produced — that criticized Drake for allegedly using ghostwriters to pen some of his songs.
Following Rhymefest’s comments, Kardashian West, 37, slammed the rapper, accusing him of overleveraging “Kanye’s name” and not being able to “sustain” Donda’s House on his own.
Kardashian West went on to lash out at Rhymefest, whose real name is Che Smith, for not raising his issues with West when they visited “at our studio a few weeks ago.”
“I saw you at our studio a few weeks ago so why didn’t you bring this up then @RHYMEFEST? You were trying to get Kanye to listen to your sub par bears” she continued. “You have the audacity to use Kanye’s mom name to try to shed a negative light on Kanye.”
“You better believe I will make it my mission to take Donda’s House from you and let me children run it the way it should be run!” the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star added, before informing the rapper that he was no longer welcome in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where West is currently working on his upcoming album.
