Kanye West Blasts Twitter, Calls It a ‘Farce’

Kanye West has no problem setting the record straight. The rapper/producer took to his blog to deliver an all caps rant against Twitter. Turns out the Real_Kanye_West and, my personal fav, GayFishKanye accounts are not powered by West.

"I don't have a fucking Twitter... why would I use Twitter???," West asked. "I only blog 5 per cent of what I'm up to in the first place."

He continues his rant by blaming the folks behind Twitter for being "irresponsible" and "deceitful." West claims the "heads of Twitter" were aware that people were posing as him and failed to shut down the bogus profiles. West slams the micro-blogging site that allows users to give endless updates via "tweets" and says that he thinks it's all a "farce." "Everything Twitter offers I need less of," West says. Ouch!
