Kanye West Denied Chain By Celebrity Jeweler Ben Baller Amid Kid Cudi Feud

Kanye West‘s feud with Kid Cudi has been interesting, to say the least, and now things are spilling over to their mutual friends. Celebrity jeweler Ben Baller, who has close ties to both artists having made several chains for them over the years, isn’t cool with Kanye’s attacks on Cudi.

On Tuesday (February 15), TMZ caught up with Ben Baller, who tweeted and deleted his feelings toward Kanye’s antics over the weekend. According to Baller, Ye recently reached out to him about getting a dove chain made, but he’s in no rush to fulfill that request.

“It’s nothing serious. I mean, he’s wanted a chain for a while. Actually, Cudi hit me up about it,” he said. “I talk to Cudi almost every day. He was like, ‘Hey man, Kanye wants your phone number, he wants to get this chain done.’ Then [Kanye] had one of his employees reach out to me and then he had Justin LaBoy reach out to me. Then I ran into him the other day and I was kinda like, ‘I don’t know, I’m busy.’”

He continued, “I got no problem with him directly, but it’s he’s attacking our mutual friend. I’m close with Cudi and [Kanye’s] obviously close with him, so it’s just a weird situation. Cudi had no idea what he was talking about. He just got back from Paris, he’s just chilling and then Ye just immediately attacks him. I felt like, ‘Come on, that wasn’t cool.’”

Ben Baller later explained he deleted his tweets about Kanye after the Chicago rap icon took down his Instagram posts that were aimed at Kid Cudi, but he “wasn’t about to let Cudi start catching bullets for no reason,” especially because he thinks Cudi is “the nicest guy in the world.”

The famed jeweler didn’t hold back when weighing in on the situation over the weekend. “I seen Kanye a few nights ago. ‘Oh when you gonna make me this dove chain?’ Never bitch! You even smell like coochie. Scott my bro for life,” he tweeted.

He followed up with, “Kanye a bitch. The cap? Cudi tried to get me to make @kanyewest a chain 2 years ago. Justin Laboy tried 2 months ago. I ain’t making no weak ass lame dove chain for that mental case. You dumbasses forget I was apart of Pastelle? Head of jewelry?”

However, Ben Baller hasn’t completely closed the door on making the dove chain for Kanye West, who he wants to see stay off the internet and focus on being a good father.

“You know what?” he said. “If him and Cudi get real good again … and Cud’s like, ‘Yo man, let’s get this chain going,’ then I’m in.”
