Kanye West's Billboard Music Awards Performance Was The Biggest Trainwreck Of The Night

What. Just. Happened. Kanye West closed out the 2015 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday, but viewers watching from home heard only a few words from his songs “All Day” and "Black Skinhead." ABC was forced to censor a majority of the 37-year-old rapper’s lyrics due to inappropriate language.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Kanye was barely visible during his performance. The lighting and smoke from the fire on stage made it nearly impossible to see the artist. While the audience at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas appeared to be having a good time, Twitter was not having any of it:

It would have be funny if @taylorswift13 went on stage with a fire extinguisher for all of the pyros during @kanyewest performance #BBMAs

Kanye West closing out but censoring the whole song basically was so so dumb
