Kanye West returns to Twitter to call out Nike

Oh dear…

What a week for Kanye West.

Yesterday the artist’s quote-worthy interview with interior designer Axel Vervoordt hit the web thanks to a slew of statements such as “I don't wish to be number one anymore, I wish to be water.”

And now, West has turned to Twitter to speak his mind on a forthcoming Nike sneaker release. Reactivating his account, West posted an image of Nike’s M2K Tekno sneaker, writing “YEEZY 700 VIBES” alongside a trio of reactive emojis in reference to his own chunky sneaker style.

West has since deleted the post, however screenshots of the original tweet soon went viral.
