It’s just been brought to my attention that rapper Kanye West has apparently set up his very own Twitter account.

I find this news extremely funny because last year Kanye was very vocal in his dislike of Twitter and wrote on his website,

“DON’T HAVE A F****** TWITTER… WHY WOULD I USE TWITTER??? I ONLY BLOG 5 PERCENT OF WHAT I’M UP TO IN THE FIRST PLACE. I’M ACTUALLY SLOW DELIVERING CONTENT BECAUSE I’M TOO BUSY ACTUALLY BUSY BEING CREATIVE MOST OF THE TIME AND IF I’M NOT AND I’M JUST LAYING ON A BEACH I WOULDN’T TELL THE WORLD. EVERYTHING THAT TWITTER OFFERS I NEED LESS OF.

He even appeared on British TV talk show Alan Carr’s Chatty Man and bad mouthed the social micro blogging site.

So I wonder what brought on this sudden change of heart.

Oh wait that’s right…. he acted the FOOL at last year’s MTV Awards, suffered some serious back lash (still is) and now needs Twitter to help him promote his new album.

The folks over at Twit HQ must be laughing their heads off right now.
