So just weeks after it was revealed that over half a million fans illegally downloaded The Life of Pablo, you’d think Kanye would be against anything that’s stopping his cash flow seeing how he claims to be in some major debt. Well according to a picture he tweeted, one of his fans found him being a tad hypocritical and decided to call him out on it!
So basically Kanye posted on a Twitter a screenshot of his computer screen showing fans that he was listening to Sufjan Stevens’ Carrie & Lowell cut “Death With Dignity,” but unfortunately for him, he also shared something else that made Deadmau5 pissed!
If you look closely at his other tabs, you can see that he had a Pirate Bay tab open and another downloading site where he was downloading a $200 beat-making software called Serum. For those who don’t know Serum is sold by Xfer Records, which was partially owned by Deadmau5 so of couse he took that opportunity to call Kanye out on Twitter saying, “What the f**k Kanye West… Can’t afford Serum? D***.”
He didn’t stop there though. Catch the rest of the tweets here:
Sheesh!
Since then, Kanye’s camp has responded to the accusations and mayhem claiming that the photo was not from his computer. Pitchfork reports, “Kanye’s camp has confirmed to Pitchfork that the laptop in question is not Kanye’s he posted the tweet as a joke, referring to the rampant piracy of The Life of Pablo. The computer is a Samsung. Kanye only uses Macs.”
He has also did some clapping back of his own!
Petty!!!!!
Be that as it may, the screenshot is most definitely from a Mac… It was browsing Safari.
We’ll let y’all be the judge!
