The producer made the comment when in an interview with Us magazine whether he felt he had anything in common with the rapper .

“No way. Did he write for a symphony orchestra? Does he write for a jazz orchestra? Come on, man,” Jones said.

“He’s just a rapper. There’s no comparison. I’m not putting him down or making a judgement or anything, but we come from two different sides of the planet.”

Jones was then asked what he thought of West, and replied: “I don’t think about him much. He’s a great rapper, but there are a lot of good rappers.”

West released his new album 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' this week.
