The rapper is heard in a leaked audio name-checking Swift as he rants about the last-minute changes made to his stage setup on 'Saturday Night Live'.

AceShowbiz - It's previously reported that Kanye West had an "epic meltdown" prior to his performance on "Saturday Night Live" last weekend. Page Six, which first reported the news, has now also published an audio of the rapper ranting about the stage setup and other arrangements, which were changed without his consent, and slamming Taylor Swift for some reasons.
"Look at that s**t. They took my f**kin' stage off of 'SNL', without asking me. Now I'm bummed. That and Taylor Swift, fake a**," West's heard yelling in the audio. "Now I ain't gonna do this, we breaking the motherf**king Internet. I went through six years of this f**king s**t."
He added that he's 50 percent more influential than any other human being, "dead or alive." He also name-checked "Stanley Kubrick, Apostle Paul, Picasso, f**king Picasso and Escobar" before repeatedly telling whoever it was he was talking to, "Don't f**k with me!"
West apparently reignited feud with Swift when he claimed he made her famous on "The Life of Pablo" song called "Famous". While he said Swift herself had approved of the offensive track, her rep recently said that the 26-year-old singer was never made aware of the actual lyrics and even warned 'Ye about writing songs with misogynist lines.
Swift hasn't said anything about being name-dropped on "Famous", but she seemingly threw shade at West when accepting her Album of the Year Award at last Monday, February 15's Grammy Awards. "There are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success, or take credit for your accomplishments, or your fame," she said in her speech at that time.
