Kanye West is well known for his love of acting, along with fashion, art and pretty much everything else. But it’s still unknown to most Yeezus fans that he once shot a TV pilot for HBO.
As Consequence of Sound point out, West struck up a deal with the cable network back in 2008 for a fly-on-the-wall improv comedy show.
The show never properly manifested, but a pilot was indeed shot. A scene from that can be seen below, uploaded by actress Alison Quinn, who appeared alongside Kanye in the skit.
Watch Kanye, from when he could have been the next Larry David, below:
