Trinidadian-born rapper Theophilus London spoke to Elle about working with Kanye on his latest album, Vibes.
London had this to say about Yeezy’s maniacal dining etiquette:
As Grub Street’s Sierra Tishgart tweets, the drink London is likely referring to is a Miami Vice, which consists of frozen strawberry daiquiri and piña colada layered together in a glass.
We already knew Kanye was an insane orderer—this insight from London just confirms it. Yeezy holds the record for the world’s most extravagant delivery, and he used his one phone call in jail to order Mr. Chow. And we can’t forget the “I Am God” lyric “Hurry up with my damn croissants.” All these are just examples of classic Kanye dining ridiculousness.
But “hot water to dip his fingers”?!?!?!? That’s good and all at sushi restaurants—but we’re just imagining Kanye sitting down at a pizzeria and asking for a bowl of hot water to dip his fingers in. GTFOH.
Wonder if Kanye made Obama sit through his embarrassing ordering tactics when they met. We can just picture him yelling, “Hurry up with my damn Miami Vice cocktail,” in front of the pres. For shame.
