Kanye Gets 150,000 Twitter Followers In Twelve Hours

A day after visiting Facebook, Kanye West finally gets a twitter account, and over 150,000 followers in twelve hours.

While we reported yesterday that Kanye West has been extremely anti-twitter in the past, he decided to start a genuine account.

There have been fake Kanyes in the past, but the kanyewest account has been verified by twitter.

Within the first twelve hours, Kanye managed to accrue over 150,000 followers and we can only assume it will continue ballooning.

He's taken to tweeting much like everything else, with all guns blazing, posting 33 tweets in the first twelve hours.

In the first hour he revealed that his forthcoming album won't be called Good Ass Job anymore.

He then posted shout-outs to 11 articles, retweeted comedian Aziz Ansari's #PredictingKanyesTweets, and has tweetphotoed a picture of his "small ass jet".

He has yet to follow anyone else.
