Kanye West Tweets with The New Yorker are Dope! – Thumbs Up
Last year, hip-hop artist Kanye West made the news for reasons that no one would be proud of. He jumped on stage during the MTV Video Music Awards interrupting Taylor Swift while she was accepting her award for “Best Female Music Video” and uttered those words that will forever be remembered (and mimicked in multiple different ways):
“Yo Taylor…I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time!”
Most recently, Kanye West jumped on another stage to display his rants: Twitter. And, the great thing about it is that Kanye tweets just as you would expect him to talk. Nothing changes. You can follow him at @kanyewest and see for yourself.
Well, with the new Twitter account and the 140 characters of gold that Kanye gives to the world each time he tweets, comedy duo Paul and Storm decided to use that gold and turn it into comedy gold. How did they do that? By taking various Kanye West tweets and using them as captions to a number of The New Yorker comics. You can see a few good ones below or a whole slew of them here. You can also see future ones posted on twitter by following the hashtag #kanyenewyorkertweets.
