MC Hammer Upset After Jay-Z Takes Aim In New Kanye West Song

September 27, 2010
MC Hammer Upset After Jay-Z Takes Aim In New Kanye West SongMC Hammer has taken offence at the lyrics in a new song by Kanye West, which features Jay-Z.

West released the track, entitled 'So Appalled', on Twitter last week as part of his Good Friday series.

In the song, Jay-Z appears to poke fun at MC Hammer over the popularity of his track, 'U Can't Touch This'.

"Hammer went broke so you know I'm more focused/I lost 30 mil' so I spent another 30/ 'Cause unlike Hammer 30 million can't hurt me," Jay-Z raps.

Asked what he thought of Jay-Z's lyrics, MC Hammer wrote on Twitter:"The Answer to Jay comes on Oct 31 ('Devils Nite')...I saw him coming."

In a later tweet, the rapper said: “You wanted my attention #HellBoy (Jigga) ..you got it," and attached a video of himself beating a punch bag.

'So Appalled' also features guest verses from RZA, Pusha T and Swizz Beatz.

West is currently putting the finishing touches to his fifth studio album, ‘Dark Twisted Fantasy’, which is due out in November.
