Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West looks primed to tell all. The hip-hop star is reportedly slated to appear on late night talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” this week.

According to Jimmy Kimmel, fans can look forward to Yeezy showing up on tomorrow night’s broadcast.

Back in October 2013, Jimmy talked about a beef-ending chat he had with Ye following a publicized war of words.

“Yeah. I think [Kanye] said it best. I think he said that he reads and sees a lot of things that frustrate him, and the difference is that in this case he was able to call me, whereas he isn’t able to call TMZ or whatever it is that bothers him. And I have to say, I did relate to a lot of the things that he said. Personally, I went through many situations where people hold what you’re good at against you. I was a very good producer when I was on the radio, and I’d write comedy for the guys I worked with. And because I was very good at it, the general managers at radio stations I worked at told me I was a behind-the-scenes guy, and I shouldn’t be on the microphone. I should be behind the scenes, supporting the guys on the mic. And, y’know, I wind up hosting a network television show. And I remind those guys of that every time I see them, as much as I possibly can. So I can see how he’s frustrated. I don’t know anything about fashion. I don’t know who’s good at it, who’s not good at it. For all I know he could be the greatest or the worst fashion designer in the world. But I do understand that frustration.” (Grant Land)

Kimmel also acknowledged Ye’s decision to rid his Twitter page of the original disses and controversial tweets.

“Y’know, he took down his tweets. And I felt like that was a conciliatory move. And then I sent him an e-mail, and we exchanged a couple of e-mails, and that was that. And then he sent me an e-mail saying he’d like to come on the show and talk about it. So we worked it so we could get him on Wednesday. Don Rickles had just canceled, so it all worked out.” (Grand Land)

Days prior, West made sure to explain what really irked him about the Jimmy’s parody of his recent heartfelt BBC Radio 1 interview.

“Jimmy does his thing. I do my thing. At a certain point, these egos can flare up. We kind of just took it to high school a little bit,” Kanye explained. “If you guys look at the Zane [Lowe] interview, it’s really something extremely fearless for someone in my position to do. Most people bow down to TV, or bow down to these cameras. I could care less about any of these cameras, in all honesty. All I care about is my family. I care about protecting my girl, protecting my baby and protecting my ideas and my dreams and that’s the reason why I went so crazy.” (“Jimmy Kimmel Live!”)
