Kanye West Goes On Long and Bizarre Twitter Rant Against Drake

OK, there is a lot to digest here, so let's just dive right in.

In case you weren't aware/have a life, Kanye West and Drake were squabbling earlier this year over a diss track which ultimately resulted in Yeezy denying that his wife, Kim Kardashian, had ever been romantically involved with the Canadian.

This beef was reignited on Thursday after a music producer texted Kanye, stating that Drake wanted permission to sample one of his songs. Kanye shared a screenshot of the text with the message, 'This proves shit faker than wrestling'.

Evidently, the request riled Yeezus, who began blurting out tweets about Drake's diss tracks and how he had been trying to arrange a meet.

These tweets obviously got Drake's attention, as he allegedly then called up and threatened West.

From here it really gets out of hand, with The College Dropout artist firing off tweets, covering everything and nothing: from bullying to bible scriptures.

It seems very ungrateful to diss your oxygen now doesn't it Drake? You'd be nothing without that.

He then threw a couple of generalised tweets about black people into the mix, which fit well with the total nonsense theme he seemed to be going for.

He said: "That's why black people never get ahead and we stay controlled.

"Cause we rather act cool than sit and have a convo."

Kanye then scores an own-goal by implying we may be able to live in a world free from Drake's music if it weren't for him.

Kim Kardashian waded into the mix too, backing her hubby's claims that there would be no Drake without him.

Kanye then went on to boast about how far he had come in pink clothes.

Then back to another unfair generalisation about black people, which he then corrects in a subsequent tweet, that is just unfair to people as a whole.

The rapper then chose to quell the hopes of all the boxing fans across the world.

Time for another dubious statement.

Little bit of faith anyone?

Little bit more faith and proof he owns a highlighter pen?

Then a tweet reminiscent of talk from a teenager in their first ever relationship... This guy's 41 by the way.

But then, in among lots and lots of concluding tweets about 'positive energy', West slips in a tweet that is undeniably true.

For the record, this is an abridged version of the rant. But it did eventually come to a close, for now at least.

Presumably, he's in bed, giving his thumbs a rest.
