“I got into this giant argument with the head of Zappos that he’s trying to tell me what I need to focus on,” the 36-year-old rapper said. “Meanwhile, he sells all this s–t product to everybody, his whole thing is based off of selling s–t product.”
In response, Zappos launched a new “s–t” product page on their site, featuring a toilet and plunger for a mere $ 100,000.
