Kanye West explains Jay-Z feud

Kanye West fell out with Jay-Z after his mentor failed to attend his wedding.

The 'Stronger' rapper admitted he was "hurt" when his friend and wife Beyonce failed to join him in Italy in 2014 when he tied the knot with Kim Kardashian West - with whom he has children North, four, Saint, two, and three-month-old Chicago - because the couple are like "family" to him.

Speaking to Charlamagne Tha God on iHeartRadio's 'The Breakfast Club', he said: "I was hurt about them not coming to the wedding. I understand they were going through some things, but if it's family, you're not going to miss a wedding.”

The 40-year-old star insists he is "past" feeling disappointed now, though he was upset at the time, and though the pair are back on speaking terms, Kanye has never directly asked Jay about the snub.
