When Timberlake performed “Suit & Tie” for his first number as musical guest on Saturday Night Live over the weekend, he altered one of the lines in a way that made it seem as though it was aimed at West.

West’s dramatic moment came last month while he was freestyling during a show in London. “I got love for Hov, but I ain’t f–kin’ with that ‘Suit & Tie, ” he rapped, taking aim at Timberlake’s collaboration with Jay-Z. In the freestyle that came out as more of a rant, West also spit out, “The Grammys can such my d—k.” Jay-Z joined Timberlake on stage during this year’s Grammy’s for a performance of “Suit & Tie.”
