Trevor Noah took the high road after Kanye West tried to start another one of his infamous Instagram feuds against him.

The Daily Show host left Ye a heartfelt message after the rapper hurled a racial slur at him in a since-deleted Instagram post — calling him a “k–n.” HollywoodLife has obtained Trevor’s now-deleted response, and it seems the talk show host has nothing but sympathy and well wishes for the Grammy Award-winning artist.

He started out by praising Kanye as an artist he has looked up to for years. “There are few artists who have had more of an impact on me than you Ye.

You took samples and turned them into symphonies. You took your pain and through the wire turned it into performance perfection,” he wrote. “I thought differently about how I spent my money because of you, I learned to protect my child-like creativity from grown thoughts because of you, s–t I still smile every time I put on a seatbelt because of you.” The comedian himself commended Kanye’s skills, calling him a “serious rapper who also knew when not to take himself too seriously.
