Kanye West Says Signing Big Sean Was the 'Worst Thing I've Ever Done'
Ye sat down with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN for the latest episode of Revolt’s “Drink Champs” podcast.
During the explosive interview, his first since the release of DONDA, the artist formerly known as Kanye West opened up about everything from his divorce from Kim Kardashian to his beef with Drake.
But he really dropped a bombshell when he took shots at his former G.O.O.D. Music signee Big Sean, saying he regrets signing him to his label.
When asked by N.O.R.E. to pick between Pusha T or Big Sean, Kanye got up from his seat and grabbed a tombstone prop that said “RIP.”
“I already decided that when I die, on my tombstone, it’s gonna say, ‘I deserve to be here ’cause I signed Big Sean,'” said Ye.
“The worst thing I’ve ever done is sign Big Sean,” he added, leaving N.O.R.E. in disbelief.

Ye took credit for putting on Sean, but was disappointed that he and John Legend didn’t vote for him when he ran for president.
“I know this man mama, bro. I’ve changed this man’s family and both John Legend and Big Sean, when I ran for office, got used quick by the Democrats to come at they boy that actually changed their life. And that’s some sell-out shit. And I don’t rock with neither of them.”
He demanded an apology. “I need my apologies,” added Ye. “I ain’t saying they gon’ change, but ni**as is scared.”

After the interview aired, Sean took to Twitter to react to the comments, revealing that he recently saw Ye and he never mentioned any issues to him. “Was just wit this man, he ain’t say none of that!!! And this was after the interview! I’m dying laughing at you @kanyewest,” he tweeted.
Sean has already been asked to be a guest on “Drink Champs” and he plans to tell his side of the story. “I can’t wait to go on drink champs now!!!” he added.
Last month, Big Sean announced that he is no longer signed to G.O.O.D. Music. He released his first project, What You Expect, under his newly-launched independent label, FF to Def Entertainment.
