Jimmy Kimmel kicked off Thursday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” just hours after a major fight with Kanye West erupted online, and the talk show host revealed the drama actually began earlier that night with “a very angry phone call” from the rapper.

As Gossip Cop reported, West’s anger apparently stemmed from a video Kimmel had aired this week, spoofing a recent interview he did with BBC Radio 1.

The Grammy winner was pissed off enough to call Kimmel in his office, but the conversation didn’t go as planned and West took to Twitter to blast the comedian as a “manipulative media mother**ker.”

But that didn’t stop Kimmel from using his show to mock West again, going on to read off all his tweets and joke about each one.

Referring to the phone call, Kimmel revealed, “He told me I had two choices – #1 Apologize publicly.”

“And that was really the only choice,” said the host.

Kimmel went on to reference West’s sex tape past, and said the rap star was actually “very nice” at a wedding they attended together.

“I don’t know why he’s angry,” said the TV personality. “The bit was pretty innocuous.”

Nevertheless, Kimmel later exclaimed, “Finally, I’m in a rap feud… I always wanted to be in a rap feud.”

“Right now we’re at DefKanye Five,” he quipped.

Kanye West went on a massive, expletive-filled rant SLAMMING Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday.

The rapper’s beef seems to stem from a bit the late night host aired on Wednesday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” in which he mocked West’s epic BBC Radio 1 interview by hiring a little kid to recreate a spoof version.

That did not sit well with West, who is known for being super-serious about his work, and he blasted Kimmel in nearly a dozen all-cap tweets.

“JIMMY KIMMEL IS OUT OF LINE TO TRY AND SPOOF IN ANY WAY THE FIRST PIECE OF HONEST MEDIA IN YEARS,” began West, who went on, “JIMMY KIMMEL, I DON’T TAKE IT AS A JOKE…. YOU DON’T HAVE SCUM BAGS HOPPING OVER FENCES TRYING TO TAKE PICTURES OF YOUR DAUGHTER.”

West continued, “I LIKE YOU, YOU KNOW ME, I WENT TO YOUR FAMILY’S WEDDING WHO YOU MADE IT CLEAR TO ME WASN’T YOUR FAMILY WHEN I WAS ON THEN PHONE WITH YOU 5 MINUTES AGO, YOU MANIPULATIVE MEDIA MUTHERF**KER.”

The music star also invoked both Ben Affleck and Kimmel’s ex Sarah Silverman in his slams, and even posted images meant to mock the comedian.

Kimmel began firing off his own responses before West was even done, writing, “apparently @KanyeWest is VERY VERY ANGRY with me….” and going on to joke about the situation.

“I’ll tell you the whole story about @kanyewest tonight on the show – this is not a prank, I promise (unless it’s being played on me),” added Kimmel, who just recently played a big hoax on the media.
