Saturday Night Lives' Michael Che has issued a response to rapper Ye's request he stop working with Pete Davidson.

Ye spent a chunk of his weekend ranting in now deleted Instagram posts about ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her new flame, SNL star Pete Davidson.


Ye also targeted people associated with Davidson, such as musicians Machine Gun Kelly and Kid Cudi.

The posts were so wild, West posted pictures of himself holding a yellow notepad with the written message, “My account is not hacked 2 13 2022," as proof it was truly him running the account.

As reported by Mediaite, Ye captioned the picture, calling out Davidson's SNL co-star Che:

"MY ACCOUNT IS NOT HACKED I WILL BE AT SUNDAY SERVICE AT NOON AND WILL BE TAKING NORTH AND SAINT TO THE SUPERBOWL SHORTLY AFTER @chethinks [Che] I’LL DOUBLE WHATEVER THEY PAYING YOU JUST SO YOU DONT HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT PAWN EVER AGAIN BIG LOVE"

But Che wasn't going to take the bait... just yet.

He responded on Instagram with his own messages written on a similar notepad to the one Ye was holding.

Che wrote:

"Sorry Ye, but I would never betray my friends"
"For anything less than triple salary."

He then began to negotiate his terms:

"That's right, $90k a year!"
Full medical, full dental, 4 weeks vacay, corner office
Plus, a pair of Red Octobers
Size 12
And you gotta make some beats for my band "The SlapButts"
What else what else
And you gotta tell me what you're gonna wear to work the night before so we can look like twins!
"You do that for me, I'll Rambo that whole building!"

People thought the response was hysterical:

Trump Just Compared His Idea To Put ICE Agents In Airports To The Invention Of The Paper Clip—And, What?

Speaking to reporters about whose idea it was to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, President Donald Trump weirded people out when he compared the decision to the invention of the paper clip.

Samuel B. Fay patented the first bent-wire paper clip in 1867—about 159 years ago. The now-familiar “Gem” paper clip design commonly sold in office supply stores appeared around 1892, roughly 134 years ago, and was never patented in the United States.

A Trump Tweet From 2016 Is Going Viral For Perfectly Predicting What's Happening Right Now

There's always a tweet, and now one of President Donald Trump's old tweets has resurfaced and gone viral as Trump announced he would deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
