Jack Antonoff hits out at Kanye West again: “Your diaper is so full”
Jack Antonoff has once again hit out at Kanye West, saying that the rapper’s “diaper needs to be changed”.
During an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night (April 16), the Bleachers frontman and producer participated in a spoof therapy session.
The segment came after host Kimmel asked Antonoff why he was “more inclined to work with female artists” after citing his collaborations with the likes of Taylor Swift, Lorde, St. Vincent and Florence + The Machine.
“There’s two people that I think are too oversensitive to even function, and it’s men and members of the music industry,” Antonoff responded.
“The amount of sensitivity – it’s sort of like watching Kanye. And Jimmy, you might like this. Because I know that you have your own relationship with sort of the right and how you interact with them.
“And you’re much closer to how I see these things than other people. I don’t like going to people, ‘You do this! You do this! Blah, blah, blah’. Because that’s what they want, this this type of oversensitive man.
“So I just do more of this… If I saw Kanye, I’d run up to him and be like, ‘Your diaper is so full, we have to change your diaper. Your diaper needs to be changed, it’s a huge problem’.”
Antonoff then told Kimmel: “And I think you do a little bit of this with some of your Trump work.”
The producer went on to say that he was “not that offended” by West, seemingly referring to the rapper’s anti-Semitic behaviour and comments in recent years. “I mean, I’m offended but I’m not that offended,” he explained.
“So I don’t like to play this character of overly offended. I prefer to sort of up the trolling.” You can watch the full Kimmel interview in the video above.
In February, Antonoff said Ye “just needs his diaper changed so badly” during an interview with the LA Times.
“It’s been a long time since I would’ve taken Kanye’s call,” he told the outlet. “I’m so incredibly bored when someone doesn’t have the sauce anymore, so they go elsewhere to shock. It’s just a remarkable waste of space.”
Antonoff had previously called West a “little cry baby bitch” after learning that the rapper’s ‘Vultures’ album would be released on the same day as his latest Bleachers record.
In other news, Antonoff made a surprise appearance during Lana Del Rey’s headline set at Coachella 2024 last weekend.
He has reportedly reunited with Taylor Swift on her 11th album ‘The Tortured Poets Department’, which is out tomorrow (April 19). However, Antonoff abruptly cut an interview short last month when asked about the project.
