This audio was secretly recorded while he was venting his frustration in a private moment with his team.”“He found out his stage design was changed and taken apart under the direction of the show’s lighting director without anyone’s approval,” the source adds. “He had spent an entire day rehearsing and a lot of hard work into the performance. Dramatic set changes were made 30 minutes before going live.”“It should be understandable why he was upset after being completely blindsided,” the source continues.The source also notes: “Kanye was seen hugging [SNL creator] Lorne Michaels just before the goodnights, and he stayed afterwards to chat with the staff and the cast, and thanked the producers on his way out the door.”The source also mentioned that the show producer’s were very “apologetic” about the situation.Meanwhile, on Wednesday, West shared a moment of humility on Twitter, tweeting, “My number one enemy has been my ego.”
