Wiz Khalifa received the Twitter ethering of a lifetime from Kanye West last night when he randomly decided to take issue with the latter renaming his album 'Waves'.

Yeezy didn't hold back, firing out a barrage of since-deleted tweets that took aim at Wiz's music, place in the hip-hop hierarchy and flow and ended with the caustic "you wouldn’t have a child if it wasn’t for me".

Kanye seemed to feel a little bad afterwards, and Wiz went off to lick his wounds, tweeting instead about the show he was playing that night in Argentina.

It seems at that very concert he decided to poke the bear again though, yelling during the climax of a track (I don't know which song, it's Wiz Khalifa): "F*ck Kanye!"

It remains to be seen whether Kanye will respond, be it on Twitter or with a diss track, but Wiz might have to try a little harder to get Ye to devote more of his time to him if he wants that boost in online streams. It worked for Meek Mill after all.
