You need to Chill, Kanye West

KANYE WEST has failed to get into the festival spirit - having a mad, rambling rant at an event set up so punters can relax.

The rapper went to The Big Chill in Herefordshire for his only UK live date of the summer but must have been confused about where he was.
Either that or someone had slipped something in his Chai tea.
On Saturday afternoon Kanye started arguing with organisers backstage over preparations for his headline set.
And all the moaning left him hoarse and apologising to fans when he had to take to the stage a few hours later.
During the track Monster, Kanye angrily shouted at one of his band "just piano" when he played the song wrong.

Misunderstood

He then walked off stage before returning with a ten-minute speech about being misunderstood.
The rapper brought up the death of his mother and losing out on an MTV award to dance duo Justice five years ago before comparing himself to HITLER.
He ranted: "This is my most important gig of the summer - but I'm really frustrated. I only have half of my voice. I just want things to be right. This is the reason we started half an hour late.
"There is so much bulls*** going on in the music industry right now. Someone needs to make a difference. People treat me like Hitler."


Unsurprisingly, punters trying to have a chilled weekend booed the rap nut as he banged on about all the people who have wronged him.
A tribute to Amy Winehouse at the end of his set went down better as he called her "beautiful Queen Amy" and spoke about meeting the late singer.
But it didn't make up for his egotistical outburst or the pretentious Roman statues and ballerinas on stage with him.
