Over the past few days, Kanye West has taken aim at a large portion of the fashion industry. Literally, everyone in the world has been the target of one of Kanye West’s rants, from Anna Wintour and Tremaine Emory to Gabrielle Karefa-Johnson and Justin Bieber.

Yet another famous person has been thrown under Kanye West’s bus. The 45-year-old rapper went on one of his infamous Instagram rants, in which he falsely accused A$AP Rocky of having an affair with fashion designer Yoon Ahn. However, the Ambush creative director quickly corrected the record on her Story.

“Ambush weak. Rocky f—ked Yoon. Next,” West wrote Thursday in an Instagram post that has since been deleted. Ahn, 45, replied, “LOL. “That’s not true, but it’s okay,” she said, before telling her own story.

“Not only using false sex accusation, spreading that lie in the name of God to insult a woman is lowest of the lowest,” Ahn — who is also a jewelry designer for Dior Men — wrote, adding a Bible verse at the bottom of her post stating, “Be aware of false prophets -Matthew 7:15.”

Kanye West Retracts His Claim That Yoon Ahn Slept with A$AP Rocky

Rocky didn’t say anything about Kanye’s claim that he slept with Yoon Ahn, but this morning, Kanye West posted a retraction that criticized Ahn’s fashion brand and went on another rant (again) about his daughter Chicago’s birthday party.

“New confirmation,” he wrote. “Rocky didn’t f—k Yoon. Ambush still trash. I known Yoon and verbal before Tremendez was ever around. Rule with Ye stay out of it unless you want to get into it. Cause all y’all was out of it when Chi was kidnapped on her birthday.”

West later went to the party, but not before he made a video in which he criticized the Kardashians and said they “kidnapped” his daughter.
