Kanye West Responds To Backlash Over Decapitating Pete Davidson In 'Eazy' Video

Kanye West has been getting at Pete Davidson ever since the SNL cast member began dating his estranged wife Kim Kardashian. 

Ye's latest diss toward Davidson came in the music video for "Eazy," his song with The Game. The Chicago rapper kidnaps a clay version of Davidson in the video, decapitates him, and buries him alive.

Did Kanye go too far? The rapper responded to all the chatter that he did on Instagram, arguing he's just expressing himself.

"Art is therapy just like this view," wrote Kanye. "Art is protected as freedom of speech. Art inspires and simplifies the world. Art is not a proxy for any ill or harm. Any suggestion otherwise about my art is false and mal intended 🖤."

Is Ye making himself look bad for paying so much attention to Davidson?
