South African-born comedian Trevor Noah is the latest foe added to Kanye West‘s growing list of industry frenemies.

The Daily Show host landed on Ye’s radar when, on a recent episode of the Comedy Central late night show, he linked the Yeezy founder’s relationship turmoil to domestic abuse.

It seems, the memory of those sharp words still lives fresh in Ye’s mind and, on Wednesday, he turned his attention away from Noah and sent jabs towards Hughley in these Instagram posts:
