Rapper, singer, professional pout composer Kanye West has a new beef, this time with the fake Twitter accounts being set up in his name.
The musician popular for remaking The Fray songs set his keyboard on caps lock and blogged his displeasure, the uncensored rant as follows:
(This spaz comes courtesy of losers making fake Kanye West Twitter accounts) I DON’T HAVE A FUCKING TWITTER… WHY WOULD I USE TWITTER??? I ONLY BLOG 5 PERCENT OF WHAT I’M UP TO IN THE FIRST PLACE. I’M ACTUALLY SLOW DELIVERING CONTENT BECAUSE I’M TOO BUSY ACTUALLY BUSY BEING CREATIVE MOST OF THE TIME AND IF I’M NOT AND I’M JUST LAYING ON A BEACH I WOULDN’T TELL THE WORLD. EVERYTHING THAT TWITTER OFFERS I NEED LESS OF. THE PEOPLE AT TWITTER KNOW I DON’T HAVE A FUCKING TWITTER SO FOR THEM TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO POSE AS ME AND ACCUMULATE OVER A MILLION NAMES IS IRRESPONSIBLE AND DECEITFUL TO THERE FAITHFUL USERS. REPEAT… THE HEADS OF TWITTER KNEW I DIDN’T HAVE A TWITTER AND THEY HAVE TO KNOW WHICH ACCOUNTS HAVE HIGH ACTIVITY ON THEM. IT’S A FUCKING FARCE AND IT MAKES ME QUESTION WHAT OTHER SO CALLED CELEBRITY TWITTERS ARE ACTUALLY REAL OR FAKE. HEY TWITTER, TAKE THE SO CALLED KANYE WEST TWITTER DOWN NOW …. WHY? … BECAUSE MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS LOUD!!!!!!!!!
I started to read the comments but felt a frightening tug on my IQ points.
Sigh. I miss the rappers coming straight out of Compton with a sawed-off. As soon as those guys started making kids’ movies for Disney the next generation just blogs in all caps when they get mad at Twitter. It’s just not the same. At least give me a rat-a-tat-tat from time to time.
Regardless, he makes a whiny good point. Imposters have been setting up shop at Twitter since the beginning. Not to get all kanye about it, but some people thought I was crazy when I proposed some sort of authentication service for Twitter (and other social network) profiles last August. That was when some deranged fan of Exxon Mobil set up an account to pose as an official PR person for the company, and tweeted nice things gratis.
It’s unclear whether any fake Kanye account has a million followers, but we did find one with over 75,000 using Twellow. How do you know it’s not Kanye? NO CAPS LOCK ON BLAST, YO.
Anyway, somebody should tell Kanye the next time he feels sorry for himself he should have 50 Cent show him his bullet wounds.
