Kanye likes to toot his own horn, which often rubs people the wrong way. A few times, Mr. West has proclaimed to be the greatest rock star on the planet. The most recent proclamation happened during his 2015 Glatstonbury set. He ended his performance by saying:

"I'm going to say this tonight because 20 years from now, 30 years from now, 40 years from now, I might not be able to say it, but I can say it tonight...you are now watching the greatest living rock star on the planet."

Yesterday, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor felt the need to record a PSA for Music Choice in which he said to Kanye:

“You are not the greatest living rock star of all time. The fact that you had to tell people that kinda says it all. You remind me of the guy who brags about pussy—they never get as much as they brag about. Stop it!”

Corey is right. That title belong to Rihanna.
