On Monday, the always irascible Kanye West appeared on author Brett Easton Ellis’ podcast, and made some truly “execrable” comments about online retailer Zappos and its products:
“I got into this giant argument with the head of Zappos that he’s trying to tell me what I need to focus on. Meanwhile, he sells all this sh*t product to everybody, his whole thing is based off of selling sh*t product.”
Well, it seems that Zappos won this war of wits when it came out yesterday with a literal “sh*t product”:
Well done, Zappos! However, $100,000 for a plunger is a little steep. Maybe if it had a “Yeezus” label on it …
Yo @kanyewest imma let you finish but this is the best sh-t product of all time http://t.co/HGIGn8FiJH @zappos

I'm going to make it my mission to never buy a product that @kanyewest endorses. Go @tonyhsieh!

Kanye really should have checked the actual “sh*t products” that Zappos sells:
Dear @kanyewest you know I love you man, but you are aware @KimKardashian's perfume is sold on @zappos right? http://t.co/OjL4nSp7K3

Boom! Kanye West is always bombastic, but sometimes his buffoonery comes back to bite him hard!
