Keeping Up With the Kardashians is getting some high praise from Yeezus himself!

In a new interview with SHOWstudio, Kanye West reveals he thinks Kim Kardashian and family are long overdue for some Emmy awards for their hit E! reality series.

"I feel proud to be in a family that has so many people breaking ground for the generations that come. I just feel like reality show, that's so f--king new of an art form," Kanye said when asked about Caitlyn Jenner's transition. "It's like my wife and her family should have had plenty of Emmys by now, but reality shows are considered to be like rap. Like when the Mondrian wouldn't let Run-D.M.C. and motherf-king Will Smith stay there because they were rappers. Or the idea of a reality star not being allowed into a fashion show or not being nominated for their show, even if it's the longest running thing and the most popular and everybody I know watches it and s--t."

You tell ‘em, Kanye!

The rapper went on to praise the Kardashian-Jenner family for always staying true to themselves, despite all the haters out there.

"To let your life be controlled by public opinion is like asking to sit in traffic for the rest of your life," Kanye said.
