Earlier this year, the rapper regularly took to his Instagram account to attack his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend, Pete Davidson, whom he calls “Skete.”
On Friday, August 5, rumors circulated that Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson had broken up after nine months of dating.
Kanye West took to Instagram in what appears to be a reaction to the news.
He shared a photo from a fake New York Times newspaper with the date Monday and the caption: “Skete Davidson dead at 28.”
The rapper also took the opportunity to attack his former boyfriend Kid Cudi in passing.
The fake article reads, “Kid Cudi wanted to play at the funeral but is afraid of getting a bottle.”
A spade, referring to an event that took place last month when Kid Cudi replaced Kanye West after the latter retired from Miami’s Rolling Loud Festival.
Kid Cudi was pushed off the stage during his concert after members of the crowd threw objects at him while he chanted Kanye West’s name.
Kanye West was a good friend of Kid Cudi, his bandmate Kids See Ghosts.
However, they began a feud earlier this year when Touch the Sky writer publicly slammed Kid Cudi, removing him from his album Donda 2 because of his friendship with Pete Davidson.
In April, Kid Cudi told his Twitter followers that Kanye West was “not my boyfriend” and that they would never work on music together again.
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson have yet to confirm their split.
