So says the headline.
In a performance at London’s Hammersmith Apollo on Saturday, the Chicago-born rapper at one point said: “I don’t give a f–k what the president’s got to say,” to an ecstatic London audience.
The president – also with roots in the city of Chicago — has publicly called West a “jackass.” One example was an off-hand remark picked up by cameras in which Obama commented on West’s interruption of singer Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech at the 2009 Video Music Awards.
West went on to say, “I hate business people,” said West. “Since when was making art about getting rich?” Kanye asked the crowd.

Right, Kanye, and just as soon as anyone sees an article where he and his inamorata Kim refuse the money they get for their various "artistic" endeavors, or donate their income to the poor, please add it here.
