The photographer later commented on the tense shoot.
New York-based photographer Shin holds up a reference photo of Presley and asks West to pose like the singer so she can get the right look for the shots.
However, West immediately snaps back at Shin for trying to instruct him to pose like Presley. The rapper refuses to pose like the late singer and refers to long-standing allegations that Presley’s music was“I don’t want nothing that look like Elvis — he stole,” a furious West yells at the photographer.
“I’m talking to fake Elvis’s right now. Give me an African pose. F*ck I’m going to do? I’m Ye, posing like f*cking Elvis?” West eventually calms down after the clash with the photographer and smiles. He makes a joke to Shin about how he “get[s] that exact feeling from that phone call in the photos” and the photo shoot appears to resume.
