No less a music biz legend than Irving Azoff has come to the defense of Kanye West in the Jimmy Kimmel story. Azoff just posted this to Twitter:
. @jimmykimmel your low blow comment was uncalled for and shows that you still don’t understand the big time.

and
Hey @jimmykimmel @kanyewest kicked your ass. You look like a joke trying to exploit this.

Seriously no one knows what the ‘big time’ is than Azoff. He ran Live Nation and Front Line Management, has managed the Eagles, Steely Dan and lots of other big names– many of whom he created.
Kanye, meantime, has reported comments made by a friend of his (maybe from fashion world) called Jibril Durimel.
“Jimmy K. is the EVIL guy trying to keep people in a box and not want more out of themselves. He does this by making fun of real dreamers.”
