The broadcaster decided not to censor the rapper's performance like ITV did at the Brit Awards in February, but it did alter the spellings of his more explicit lyrics to make them less controversial.
Consequently, one of West's lyrics read: "We ain't got nothing to lose motherducker, we rollin'."
Later, it appeared as if the BBC's subtitling team had grown tired of trying to censor West as one message simply read: "He raps."

Kanye West brought drama to Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage on Saturday (June 27) with a hit-filled setlist that lasted for around two hours.
However, the rapper was interrupted just four songs into his set by comedian Lee Nelson, who later claimed that he did it for Taylor Swift.
