“For the record, Pete Davidson is one of the nicest and loveliest people I’ve ever met. He treats everyone around him with respect, and he is a very generous, tender, and hilarious spirit,” the 55-year-old American filmmaker stated on Twitter on Thursday (3 March).
West, who officially changed his name to Ye last year, has routinely shared disparaging tweets about Davidson on social media, prompting the Suicide Squad director’s response.
Ye has revealed a music video for his new song “Eazy,” which features rapper The Game.
Davidson, who is dating Ye’s estranged wife Kim Kardashian, is mentioned in the lyrics of the track, with the Donda rapper saying: “God saved me from the crash, just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s ass.”
The video features clay stop-motion. At one point, a figure seemingly modelled after Ye is seen dragging a tied-up body along the ground.
A bag is then removed from the captive’s face, revealing a figure whom many viewers have observed bears a resemblance to Davidson.
The cartoon Ye then sprinkled rose seeds over the figure’s face. Later in the video, roses sprout from his head, and these are loaded onto a pickup truck.
At the end of the video, a message appeared on the screen, reading: “Everyone lived happily ever after.”
Another slide had the words: “Except Skete” – the derogatory nickname Ye has previously used to refer to Davidson. The word “Skete”, however, is crossed out, and replaced with, “you know who”.
“JK he’s fine,” the rapper added in a final frame.
According to Instagram account Comments By Celebs, Kardashian retweeted Gunn’s message a few hours ago. However, the post isn’t visible on her profile now.
