It appears the hacker group Anonymous may have been a victim of a hoax. Someone pretending to be affiliated with the hacking collective posted a seven-minute video attacking Kanye West.
The creepy clip shows a person in a Guy Fawkes mask, spewing his vitriol at Yeezy for his Grammy remarks and his constant egoism. The mysterious figure takes aim at his fashion endeavors, his family and even brings up the rapper’s late mother, Donda West.
“It’s time to awaken from your insanity Mr. West. In reality you’re not a Renaissance man, you’re just are a new slave that the industry uses to keep the population in a cycle of stupidity and distraction,” he says. Ouch.
On Thursday (March 12), Anonymous went on Twitter to deny affiliation with the video and expressing their support for Kanye West.
Last year, Anonymous went after Iggy Azalea and threatened to release her purported sex tape if she didn’t stop misappropriating black culture. They also demanded that the Aussie rapper apologize to Azealia Banks and the Furgeson protesters, whom she allegedly insulted.
The “Fancy” rapper didn’t respond to Anonymous’ threats but she did leave both Twitter and Instagram altogether, so we guess it’s a partial victory for the hacking crew.
