Wiz Khalifa still rankled by Twitter feud with Kanye West
- Share via
Rapper Wiz Khalifa says that he hasn’t entirely gotten over the feud that erupted between him and Kanye West earlier this year after West misunderstood a tweet he had posted.
“He apologized,” Khalifa told the New York radio program the Breakfast Club on Friday morning. “I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s squashed, though, because when you see him talk about it, it doesn’t add up to what he said to me on the phone, so I just don’t even ...”
The pair got into a raging Twitter feud in late January after West misinterpreted a tweet Khalifa had posted as an insult to his wife, Kim Kardashian West.
“Hit this kk and become yourself,” read Khalifa’s tweet.
West thought the “kk” referred to Kardashian, but it actually referred to marijuana — “Khalifa Kush,” a strain bred specifically for the rapper.
The misunderstanding sparked a rancorous exchange on Twitter (E! online has the whole thing), that included West hurling insults at their mutual ex, Amber Rose, with whom Khalifa has a child.
“You let a stripper trap you,” Kanye tweeted at the time. “I know you mad every time you look at your child that this girl got you for 18 years.”
The rappers also both questioned each other’s musical bona fides.
West later apologized for his actions — but as Friday’s interview reveals, Khalifa is still stinging over the insults hurled at him and his son.
