Kanye West’s upcoming VH1 Storytellers performance will be heavily edited after the rapper’s outbursts about Radiohead and his defence of Chris Brown.
The show, which was filmed in LA earlier last month, featured Kanye discussing the meaning of his music to an intimate audience.
During the energetic performance, the rapper said he was ‘hurt’ by Radiohead’s frontman Thom Yorke, who snubbed him at the Grammy’s.
“So when he (Yorke) performed at the Grammys, I sat the f**k down.”
The Chicago also told the audience
“Can’t we give Chris a break? I know I make mistakes in life.”
However, producers of the show deny that the edits were made due to Kanye’s outbursts but because they didnt have time to fit it all in the programme.
The executive producer of the show, Bill Flanagan said,
“A lot of the stories that Kanye told went long. I tried to get the essence of his comments.”
