Needless to say, Kanye West was not amused with Jimmy Kimmel’s recent spoof of the rapper’s intimate interview with BBC’s Zane Lowe.  In fact, the G.O.O.D. Music head honcho decided to take to his Twitter account today to vent some of his frustration towards the talk show host.  It’s no secret that Yeezus over the last few years made the conscious decision not to participate in any type of interview and only recently accepted to do one with Lowe following the popularity of the journalist’s one-on-one sit down with JAY Z.  After BBC released part one of Zane’s interview with the Chicago native, Jimmy Kimmel decided to mock West with a short spoof he showcased for viewers on his show.  Below are the numerous tweets posted today by Mr. West aimed at Kimmel.  According to Jimmy Kimmel’s official twitter account, the talk show host is apparently going to prepare his own response for Kanye on tonight’s show.
