Earlier this week there were rumors that Kanye West had a major meltdown back stage at Saturday Night Live and had even threatened to walk off the set.

Audio from the meltdown has leaked online.

In the audio obtained by Page Six Kanye can be heard yelling,

“Are they f—–g crazy? Whoa by 50 percent [I am more influential than] Stanley Kubrick, Picasso, Apostle Paul, f—–g Picasso and Escobar. By 50 percent more influential than any other human being. Don’t f–k with me. Don’t f–k with me. Don’t f–k with me. By 50 percent dead or alive, by 50 percent for the next 1,000 years. Stanley Kubrick, ‘Ye.”

Following the leak, Kanye’s camp issued a statement on the recording.

“He did not yell at ‘SNL’ staff,” the rep said, according to Complex. “This audio was secretly recorded while he was venting his frustration in a private moment with his team. He found out his stage design was changed and taken apart under the direction of the show’s lighting director without anyone’s approval. He had spent an entire day rehearsing and a lot of hard work went into the performance. Dramatic set changes were made 30 minutes before going live. It should be understandable why he was upset after being completely blindsided.”

Taylor Swift had an important message after her Grammy win for Album of the Year for her album 1989. Earlier this week when Kanye West dropped his new album a particular song stood out, where he revealed in his song  “Famous” that he indeed made Taylor Swift famous.

“I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments, or your fame,” said Swift. “But if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you’re going, you’ll look around and know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. That will be the greatest feeling in the world.”

SNL took a stance for Beyoncé  with “The Day Beyoncé Turned Black,” a hilarious skit in response to the backlash over Queen Bey’s single ‘Formation’ and Super Bowl 50 halftime show.

Yesterday news leaked that pop star Ciara filed a $15 million defamation of character lawsuit against her baby daddy, rapper Future, claiming his penchant for trashing her in the media was costing her job opportunities.

Future says hold up, not so fast!!!

Insiders from Future’s camp tell TMZ he believed he had grounds to sue Cici over her first hit single after they broke up which was all about a lousy boyfriend, but he chose not to be petty.

Future also claims he was never properly served with Ciara’s lawsuit so he can’t respond to any of the allegations.

Meanwhile newly surfaced info from Ciara’s lawsuit claims Future sends their son home from visits with clothes smelling like weed and pee.
