Overview

• In newly released footage from In Whose Name?, Michael Che accuses Kanye West of "selling out" the SNL cast after West's on-air pro‑Trump remarks and a comment about Bill Cosby.
• West says he was "bullied" backstage for wearing a MAGA hat, denies targeting Che with his Cosby remark, and acknowledges it was "foul" to air grievances without giving the show a chance to respond.
• The clip captures Che pressing West for calling him out during the live show and emphasizing that the SNL cast treats guests like family.
• Rapper Consequence, who appears in the scene, says he intervened to defuse the exchange and later told Che to back off, disputing the documentary's edit as leaving out key moments.
• Directed by Nico Ballesteros, In Whose Name? is in limited theatrical release and draws from more than 3,000 hours of footage, as other SNL alums recall discomfort during West's 2018 rant.
