Kanye West performed his latest single "All Day" and former single "Black Skinhead" at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday.

Kanye largely replaced the usage of "n***a" in "All Day" with "people." He did not censor the word when it arrived in the middle of a verse. He also self-censored a few instances of "bitch" and "fuck," but we'll assume during the censored parts that he used the actual words.
With that said, take a look at everything muted by ABC and tell us if you think they went a little overboard.

For the record: The line "300 bitches, where the Trojans?" was not censored.
Hey they let Kanye say Bitch "300 bitches where the Trojans
So Kanye can say "300 bitches where the trojans" but he can say "black leather" without being censored #BBMAs
