Kanye West Says Lorne Michaels Is 'Next Up' In His Payback Campaign

Kanye West is now directing his mid-life angst toward Pete Davidson’s boss, Lorne Michaels.

The “Saturday Night Live” head honcho is “next up” on Kanye’s “payback” list.

Ye posted a screenshot of Lorne’s Wikipedia page and captioned it, “Next up.”

His fans seemed to have gone from supportive to worried in the comments section.

One person replied, “Damn Ye,” while another suggested, “take your meds bruh.”

One worried fan warned Kanye, “You better chill or they are going to hospitalize you. Gonna do a Britney on you. Chill.”

However, some people took the opportunity to sling some jokes.

After all, it’s “Saturday Night Live” comedians Ye is taking aim at.

“Next he’s gonna be like “f**k Knott’s Berry Farm cuz my ex wife had fun with her new man on the log jam ride,” someone wrote.

Earlier in the day, Kanye put all of his energy toward Pete.

I guess he recently caught wind of Pete’s 2018 “Weekend Update” sketch he performed alongside Colin Jost.

The comedian was speaking about Kanye’s recent performance on the show both musically and politically.

The rapper was the musical guest on the September 30, 2018 premiere of the sketch comedy show.

After his performance, he went on an impassioned speech about Donald Trump, who was president at the time.

A week later, Pete joked that Kanye should get back on his meds for bi-polar disorder.

In the ‘SNL’ sketch Pete says, “Kanye, I know you’re like, ‘Yo this is the real me. I’m off the meds.’ Take ‘em. No shame in the medicine game. I’m on ‘em. It’s great. Take ‘em, there’s nothing wrong, take ‘em. If I ever got on a plane and the pilot said, ‘I just want all you to know this is the REAL me flying,’ I’d jump out. Being mentally ill is not an excuse to act like a jacka**.”

Kanye posted a screenshot of Pete from the sketch and captioned it, “Someone always telling you you’re crazy can drive someone crazy That’s the gaslighting That’s the harassment The liberals have tried to discredit me for 20 years.”

He continued, “Page 6 TMZ and SNL are a gang That gang has tried to bully harass control discredit minimize and patronize me for years They are Godless God got me and God got our family Jesus has already one the victory And for everyone praying for me and my family Faith without works is dead Do something positive Say something publicly and positively while you still can Our first amendment is merging into the 13th amendment in front of our eyes meaning our freedom of speech is being challenged Because when you say something against the liberal agenda they gang up and say you’re challenged Y’all gone stop calling me crazy Let’s see if page 6 and TMZ print that I said that they are Godless.”

In 2018, Kanye went on an infamous rant while visiting the TMZ office.

During the rant he went on to tell the entire newsroom that slavery is a choice.

He said, "When you hear about slavery for 400 years. For 400 years?! That sounds like a choice."

Not long after airing his grievances with TMZ, Kanye turned his attention to Perez Hilton.

He shared screenshots of articles about himself and captioned it, "Perez I got a question directly for you Do you find jokes about mental health funny?"
