Jay-Z Comes to Kanye’s Defense after the MTV awards

After being blasted by members of the media and fellow celebrities for interrupting Taylor Swift during her MTV VMA acceptance speech, Big Brother Jay-Z has come to Kanye West’s rescue.

During an interview with Radio 1, Jay defended his frequent producer and collaborator. “He didn’t kill anybody,” he told Jo Whiley.

According to BBC News, Hov agreed that Ye’s outburst was “inappropriate at the time” but reminded listeners that the Chi-town artist is “just a super-passionate person.” ”Of course it was rude because it was her moment but that’s the way he really felt,” he said.

“I think it was rude but the way they’re treating him… He’s on the cover of every paper,” he continued. “He didn’t kill anybody. No one got harmed.”

As previously reported Kanye has since made several public apologies, including one that was televised on The Jay Leno Show. Swift has accepted his sentiments.
