Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were one of the most iconic couples in Hollywood until 2021. The divorce came at a very unexpected time when the rapper was already in a problematic stage of his life. While Kardashian stayed on the low after her divorce, Ye was very vocal about it. Moreover, the ‘Heartless’ singer did not give his ex-wife an easy time to move on. The rapper went all guns blazing on Pete Davidson as soon as he got together with the reality TV star after her divorce.

The Kanye West-Pete Davidson feud is a much-discussed affair in Hollywood. Ye took several shots at the comedian and even gave him a peculiar nickname, Skete. But why did the rapper call Davidson Skete?

What does the term Skete, the nickname Kanye West, gave Pete Davidson, mean?

One of the most controversial and terrifying incidents that happened after Kim Kardashian started dating Pete Davidson was the rapper’s Instagram post. Shortly after Ye made a comeback to social media, the ‘Flashing Lights’ star posted a photoshopped newspaper clipping that read, “SKETE DAVIDSON DEAD AT AGE 28.” While the rapper did not name-call Davidson, everyone knew the post was aimed at the comedian. Following that, countless memes flooded the internet discussing what Skete means. Initially, everyone thought it was an abbreviation for Pete and Kim like KimYe. However, Skete basically means “to ejaculate.“

Urban Dictionary has another meaning for the word, which means a “pale skinny dude who is involved with your ex“. However, this description of the word only made its way to the dictionary after Ye used it in his Instagram post. Therefore, the former meaning of the word seemed more plausible. In addition to the threat he made on Instagram, the rapper even made a diss track, ‘Eazy’, that took multiple shots at the comedian.

Since then, the beef between the rapper and Davidson had reached a dead end. However, recently, the SNL star got back at the Grammy Award-winning artist during his latest skit.

Pete Davidson previously revealed that he was retiring from SNL. However, the decision did not last long as he made a return recently for the premiere of season 49. Interestingly, the comedian took the opportunity to get back at West as he shed some light on their infamous public feud. The King Of Staten Island star, took a dig aimed towards Ye as he addressed the Skete nickname that the rapper gave him.

Davidson joked, “People online still call me Skete because of a guy’s name I can’t say legally.” As he continued the skit, an image of the ‘Heartless’ rapper popped up in the background. The Donda rapper seems a bit caught up with some very interesting endeavors in Italy and is yet to respond. However, with an album in the pipeline, Pete Davidson might have to count his safe days.
