Kanye West Storms Out Of Piers Morgan Interview After 4 Tense Minutes

The conversation got off to a rocky start and only got worse from there.

A chat between Piers Morgan and the artist formerly known as Kanye West came to an abrupt end when the rapper walked out of the interview after four and a half combative minutes.

The English tabloid veteran’s plan to confront Ye about his antisemitic social media statements and use of white supremacist imagery went off the rails during a sit-down for the Tuesday episode of Morgan’s YouTube show “Uncensored.”

The tension began before Morgan even got a question in, as Ye took issue with being introduced by the surname “West,” which he called his “slave name.”

From there, the artist seemed resistant to answering even the most benign questions.

Asked how he was doing, Ye, who was being interviewed alongside social media star Sneako from a location in Mallorca, Spain, told Morgan, “I mean, you see that view” and “judge it on the view.”
