‘Is Kanye okay?’, the world is collectively pondering. Not Snoop Dogg though, he really doesn’t give a sh*t.
As Kanye makes some personal admissions online, the world of rap doesn’t know how to respond. It’s seems Snoop’s Ye is different to Ye’s Ye.
Kanye tweeted saying:
Snoop is my elder and an inspiration to me

The rapper tweeted over 30 times on December 15, and it clearly got on the nerves of Snoop Dogg.
So much so, he made an Instagram video, while smoking in the car – obviously – telling Kanye to put a cork in it.
Snoops exact words were:
Is y’all getting tired of Kanye West and these tweets? ‘Cause I am.
I see why you and Donald Trump hangout. N***a, y’all tweet like a motherfucker. I think that n***a need Dr. Phil or Maury … You know what? That n***a need Jerry Springer.
Get your ass off your phone and go holla at [Drake] in real life. Stop telling the whole f*cking world what you’re going through. We don’t give a f*ck!
Snoop’s video was captioned ‘P.S.A’ and began with him dancing to the Drake song From Time – a clear statement from Snoop on where his allegiance lies in Kanye’s ongoing feud with the Canadian rapper.
Kanye hosted somewhat of a open therapy couch session on Twitter over the weekend where he gave thanks to all the rappers he admired, while also calling out Ariana Grande and laying into Drake.
Kanye quoted a tweet from Ariana Grande’s which read: “I know there are grown men arguing online right now but Miley and I are dropping our beautiful new song tonight so if y’all could please just behave for just like a few hours so the girls can shine that’d be so sick thank u.”
And in response, he wrote:
I know Ariana said this to be cool and didn’t mean no harm but I don’t like even slightest level of slight commentary from someone I know loves and respects me [sic]

Many of Kanye’s tweets touched on the issue of mental health problems and how they are ‘written off by society’.
The rapper wrote:
People will no longer take mental health for a joke. Drake verbally attacked Cudi when he was in the hospital and went at me after TMZ because I decided to release albums in June Is snowballed and he refused to meet with me but texted my mother in law and did sneak disses on peoples records that I consider family [sic]
No one would ever choose to end up in a mental hospital and diagnosed with a mental disorder but god chose me to publicly go through this journey and it is beautiful [sic]
I am able to experience first hand how people who have mental health issues get written off by society. Don’t listen to him cause he’s crazy. He’s washed cause he’s crazy etc…
I don’t blame people for not knowing how to handle this that said we as a society will learn together
It reminds me of when I said stop hip hop homophobia It used to be ok for rappers to bash gay people just listen to certain rap records from the 90s and early 2000s [sic]

What do you make of all the beef between the rappers? Does Kanye have a point? Should Snoop lay off him?
