West shared several pictures of his contracts with music labels, claiming that he wants to be free from the "modern day slavery." While his rant was still taken in good spirits by his followers and fans, what he did next appalled the Twitterverse.
Kanye West shared a video of himself urinating on his Grammy Awards and declared, "ALL THE MUSICIANS WILL BE FREE." Till now, West has been nominated for 69 Grammy Awards and has won 21 of them. Grammy is the biggest honour in the music industry.
Sharing the video, Kanye West wrote, "Trust me ... I WONT STOP."
The rapper, who has bipolar disorder, posted pages from 10 of his contracts and accused entertainment companies of exploiting artists.
While it cannot be ascertained that it was the rapper himself in the video, but his "live stream" left the Internet and his fans absolutely shook. As of writing, his urinating video has been viewed over 20 million times on Twitter alone.
Grammy-winner Diane Warren called West's actions "vile" and "disrespectful".
