Back When Kanye West Celebrated His Comedic Brilliance and Degraded Kevin Harts’ in One Instagram Post
Kanye West is one of the most celebrated artists in the music industry. So much so that he can take away your hard-earned time on an award show stage to state that you did not deserve the award and you will still say thank you. From lyrics to sneakers, his artistic genius has always been kept on the highest pedestal. But there is one quality of the rapper that has yet to earn him a million-dollar mansion or a top place in the charts: his humor.
Owing to humor being a subjective concept, one can find Kanye West’s decision to choose the exact moment his then-wife, Kim Kardashian, was debunking the claims about his tweets being “erratic” to abruptly state that he is nice at ping-pong peak comedy or concerning. The rapper himself, however, thinks it is top-tier comedy.

The past year saw Kanye West don a clown costume under the guise of his social media posts. While there is a lot to unravel from his posts of the past year, one Instagram post single-handedly weighs above the rest.
In Hollywood, clarifications about any controversy by a celebrity are prone to tears and apologies. But in the case of Kanye West, it includes an Instagram post where he states all things he finds funny. The list obviously included him and Kevin Hart, among others. But then he adds perhaps the cherriest of cherries as he writes “in Jumanji” in a bracket next to Hart’s name.
A comedian with more than three decades of experience under his belt, Kevin Hart, secures a position in West’s comic recommendations but for a stint that he considers acting. The perfect setup for a feud of the funniest.

With how Kanye West reduced Kevin Hart’s years of experience to rock, one would think that the two artists do not get along. But that is the beauty of humor. After all, one man’s jab is another man’s joke and who understands this better than a seasoned comic like Kevin Hart? This is why there was no feud between the two following this post.
The Jumanji actor even defended Kanye West later on when he got embroiled in controversy for hating on Billie Eilish by saying the way he puts forth his “genius” is often misinterpreted. And while more monumental words have been said for Kanye West, as far as his humor is concerned, this statement describes him best.
