Kanye West may not only be en route to watching his latest album, ‘Vultures 1,’ soar to #1 on the Billboard 200 but he could also see cuts from the project – namely the Ty Dolla $ign, Rich the Kid, and Playboi Carti-assisted ‘Carnival‘ – fly as high as the top 10 of next week’s Hot 100.

In an effort to block the latter, fans of his longtime nemesis Taylor Swift (affectionately called #Swifties) are joining forces to help Beyonce‘s latest singles – ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ and 16 Carriages – ride past West to the all-genre chart’s top spot.

Once word of their endeavors landed on Kanye’s desk, he took to social media to respond. Hop inside to see what he said.

As the Shannon Sharpe-hosted ‘Club Shay Shay’ continues its rise in notoriety on the back of internet-breaking interviews like Katt Williams and Monique’s, so has increased criticism of the podcast.

Among the many headline-grabbing slams of the platform, those coming from Mike Epps seem to be ringing loudest as he took time during a recent standup gig to insinuate Sharpe was a closeted homosexual.

“That ni**a Shannon called me trying to do an interview,” the 53-year-old said to the crowd before calling the podcaster “Madea’s sister.” “I said ‘no Madea, I ain’t doing no interview with you’ – so you can sit across from me and look at my balls.”

Once the clip got to the desk of Sharpe, he offered a fiery clap back.

“When I see you, I’m going to see if you’re about that. I’m going to see if you want to say what you’ve been saying, getting off some jokes,” the football icon said before relaying, “Tell your little jokes, get your little laughs off, have fun. But, just don’t lie.”

That’s not all that was said.
