'Ye, whose last turn on the show was in 2007, had some beef with 'SNL' after the sketch comedy show took repeated jabs at him following his 2009 MTV Video Music Award fiasco with Taylor Swift. West even took to his lyrics to air the beef rapping, "F--- 'SNL' and the whole cast/ tell them Yeezy said they can kiss my whole a--" on 'Power.' West, being the provocative artist that he is, performed that song on Saturday's episode, hosted by 'Breaking Bad''s Bryan Cranston.
