The "Heartless" hitmaker, Kanye West, or Ye, along with internet personality Sneako, appeared in an online interview on May 6, 2025, on Piers Morgan's YouTube news program Uncensored with Piers Morgan. Ye was in Mallorca, Spain, at the time of the interview, as he was visiting the Spanish island for some work.

West, who is quite active on X (formerly Twitter) and posts frequently, has often put himself in difficult situations for his controversial statements and opinions. One of the most controversial and troublesome statements by Ye was when he made anti-Semitic remarks. In February 2025, Kanye once again found himself in a difficult predicament after posting a bunch of anti-Semitic remarks on X.

West triggered a renewed wave of criticism after his Yeezy (a media and fashion brand owned by Ye) commercial was aired during Super Bowl LIX. However, the multiple-time Grammy-winning rapper and record producer caught his fans off guard when he instructed consumers to visit Yeezy's website to check out a T-shirt that had an image of a swastika, which was available for sale.

After his recent split from Bianca Censori, Kanye—who was also once married to businesswoman and socialite Kim Kardashian, with whom he shares four children, Chicago, Saint, North, and Psalm—had a heated conversation with the British journalist Piers Morgan in an interview that turned out to be quite short as Kanye walked out.

The 60-year-old, Morgan, took to X and shared a post in which he called Ye a "big baby" regarding West's unexpected behaviour, saying:

"So, I interviewed Kanye West again today. As I expected, given what I've said about him recently, it didn't last long or go well. This was him right before he stomped off like a big baby."

In a different post, Morgan shared on X, calling Kanye "a massive d*ck". Besides that, the popular British journalist shared another post on X, in which he wrote:

"Ye did walk out, after two minutes.. because he's a sniveling little coward who didn't want me to ask him why he's become a vile Hitler-loving Nazi-slathering anti-Semite. Happy to continue the interview when/if you grow a pair @kanyewest."

Morgan further added:

"We'll circle back when he is ready to answer questions about why he loves Hitler and hates Jews."

Those of you who saw the interview firsthand know it did not take much time for the conversation between West and Morgan to turn sour. Kanye was kind of triggered when Morgan asked him about the posts he shares on X (formerly Twitter), and mentioned his millions of followers. However, Morgan made the mistake of saying Ye had 32 million followers, which was an incorrect figure. In reality, Kanye has 33.3 million followers on his official X handle.

Kanye interrupted Morgan and quickly reacted, saying:

"See wait, wait. Now look right now, you're not going to take inches off my d*ck, bro. Like how many followers do I have?"

After having a heated argument about how many followers Kanye had, Morgan finally came up with the right figure regarding Ye's X followers with the help of his staff. However, before Kanye walked out of the interview, the prominent rapper told Morgan:

"(Morgan wasn't) taking accountability or responsibility."

And added:

"Sir, this is what you get for now. We can circle back when you can count."
