A footage of the pilot episode of rapper Kanye West's 2008 flop sitcom has appeared online.
The 36-year-old singer had shot a pilot episode for the comedy series but the programme was never shown on TV, reported Daily Express.
A clipping has reportedly been posted on Youtube by West's co-star, Alison Quinn.
In the video, West seems to play himself and is being teased by Quinn, who refers to him by 'Kenny' instead of Kanye.
'Seinfeld' writer Larry Charles was also associated with the project and at the start of which had said, "What Kanye West said to me the first time... He said, 'I'm the black Larry David.' That's the first thing he said to me. So it's like a Kanye and Curb show, it's kind of improvised about the situations and stuff. It was really good, but again I think it was too hardcore for Hbo.
