Its one of those twitter beef that you don’t want it to happen.
On Jan 27th,2015, American rap mogul and businessmen Kanye Omari West, top the treading chart of micro-blogging site twitter due to his short spree beef with American rapper Wiz Khalifa.
Guys are you curious of what went wrong between both American music stars? What caused the beef? Where did it all start? Why do they call it “beef” anyway?
I got you.
Here are quick explainer of the tweetstorm that will live in infamy.
How Did it Started
In short two words : Amber Rose.
In 2008 to 2010, rap mogul Kanye West dated former stripper turned model and video vixen Amber Rose, but their relationship went into turbulent that made waves across the blogosphere. Amber Rose was there when Kanye West hopped onstage at the VMAs in 2009. They took these pictures together. West wrote a lot of songs about her.
They later broke up, because she discover that West couldn’t “be faithful,” and was cheating on her with “homewrecker” Kim Kardashian, Rose told the New York Post in 2012.
About a year later, she started dating Wiz Khalifa, a rapper already in the mainstream thanks to his hit song “Black and Yellow.” The pair got married in 2013, and had a child, Sebastian Taylor Thomaz, soon after.
West ended up marrying Kim Kardashian in 2014. All’s well that ends well, right?
Well … for some godforsaken reason, West invokes Rose a lot, despite being a happily married husband and father of two. He’s slut-shamed her and said last year that he had to take “30 showers” after dating her.
Ever since separation between Rose and West years ago, Rose did not have anything good to say about the West and the Kardashian clan, particular because of Kim and her younger sister Kylie Jenner, who is dating American rapper Tyga, who is previous engaged and also have a child with Rose’s best friend Blac Chyna.
Though, according to report says that Blac Chyna is currently dating Rob Kardashian , which is against the family. Nevertheless its family feud and its never ends like that, because West broke up with Rose both ex-lovers never like each-other anymore.
Meanwhile, Khalifa and Rose ended up filing for divorce in 2014.
Wiz Khalifa continue with his music career while Rose has worked on expanding her empire, writing a book (How to Be a Bad Bitch) and organizing a SlutWalk in Los Angeles.
#TeamAmber. #TeamSebastian.
Swish vs. Waves vs. Wiz
Lets fast forward this beef to Tuesday, rap mogul Kanye West, announces that the titled of his highly anticipated album has change from ” Swish ” to ” Waves ”.
Okay, fine, innocuous enough, right?
You’re absolutely wrong, fam.
Khalifa decided to unleash his #TwitterFingers and sub-tweet the new title, essentially claiming that West was co-opting a movement by artist Max B.
He’s the reason I sing on all my songs. That’s the wave. If theres nothing wit that sound ITS NOT WAVY.

Just so you know what true waves are. https://t.co/Mot3ab1Kuu

Kanye later tweet about it ( by giving a respect to Max B without directly responding to Wiz Khalifa .
All respect to Andre Harrel and Max B #Waves

And then Wiz responded back to Kanye again.
Yea aight. https://t.co/z1syUIGo4G

Then everything went quiet on the Twitter front.
Until Wiz tweeted this.
Hit this kk and become yourself.

Wiz was apparently referring to his own strain of marijuana, ” Khalifa Kush ”.
But Kanye didn’t know that.
To Kanye West, there is only one true KK, which is Kim Kardashian .
However, on Wednesday, Mr West promptly lost all couth and began tweeting incessantly about Wiz.
His series of tweet never ends there.
One thing will need to get right from West series of tweet attack is that ( 1. He thinks Wiz stole his sound from rapper Kid Cudi, a former collaborator and GOOD Music (Kanye’s label) artist. Which, eh, might be a plausible thing to say? In a 2014 interview, Khalifa himself said he looks up to Cudi.
“He was able to do what I’m doing now before I was able to do it,” Khalifa said. “I looked at his path, his performances.”
And 2) Kanye really respects Wiz’s pants game. So much that he sent a picture of Wiz’s pants to his stylists.
But then it was back to bashing him.
West series of tweets took some pretty misogynistic shots at Amber, belittling her, calling her a “stripper” and saying she trapped him by having his child (“this girl got you for 18 years”).
In mature manner Wiz respond to West series of tweet attack in a pretty casual way, clearing up the “KK” confusion.
KK is weed fool. Reason’s why your not wavy. Go bacc to Swish. https://t.co/7OT4xiQa5V

He’s too busy rolling joints to listen to Waves anyway.
I been smashed the idea of that album even existing. I got joints to roll @kanyewest
— KOE (@wizkhalifa) January 27, 2016
Apparently something convinced West to tone it down. Perhaps he consulted the holy saint in his life. He decided to delete most of his tweets, saying that he just loves everyone, wants world peace and that Waves is actually a gospel album
What’s sad is I love Wiz and I love all all my brothers and all people
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016
This album is actually a Gospel album
— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) January 27, 2016
Ima take these down cause it’s all about positive energy blessings blessings positive energy blessings

The twitter beef drama between Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa is over now.
Until Amber Rose come in a join the part and later becomes the winner.
