Kanye’s Twitter finger has gone off again and this time he’s aiming for Britney Spears. The rapper recently Tweeted a playful insult to the pop star after his song “H.A.M” featuring Jay-Z placed second to Spears’ single on Itunes.

“Yo Britney, I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you be #1, but me and Jay-Z’s single is one of the best songs of all time! LOL,” he wrote.

Spears’ manager responded with a short tweet, sarcastically thanking Kanye for making the pop star first on Itunes.

West later apologized for being a poor sport, telling his followers, “On a serious note I’m truly happy for Avril Lavigne and Britney Spears. No hate in 2011…I thought LOL signified a joke.”

What do you think of Kanye’s Twitter rants – funny or immature?
