And the real reason Zuck didn't loan Kanye $1 billion is... - CNET

Kanye West has gone on another epic rant.

But not on social media; this time the hip hop star waxed poetic on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show.

During an eight-minute-long interview that aired Thursday, West kept it 100, talking about his occasional bizarre antics, including asking Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg for $1 billion on Twitter in February after saying he was $53 million in debt.

This led to a GoFundMe campaign that raised some $8,000. West declined the money, which went to Notes for Notes, a nonprofit which builds, equips and staffs after-school recording studios in several major cities.

West admitted to DeGeneres that he probably should have asked Zuckerberg for the money on Facebook instead of on a rival social network. "Now I understand why he didn't hit me back...he doesn't use Twitter," he said.
