Kanye West Shades 'DWTS' on New Song, Val Chmerkovskiy Reacts to Lyrics

Kanye West isn’t a fan of Dancing With The Stars!

The 42-year-old rapper threw some shade at the reality competition series on his track “On God” off of his new album Jesus Is King.

In the song, Kanye raps, “That’s why I charge the prices that I charge / I can’t be out here Dancing With the Stars / No, I cannot let my family starve / I go hard, that’s on God.”

DWTS pro Val Chmerkovskiy took to his Instagram to respond to the diss in a pretty funny way.

In the response vid, Val can bee seen enjoying the song until it gets to the line about the show before cutting to a slideshow of photos from Kim Kardashian‘s 2008 appearance on DWTS.

At the end of the video, Val addresses Kanye, saying, “Yo, Kanye, keep talking that smack about Dancing with the Stars, man. You gonna catch this diss track. With some rhinestones on it.”
