Impressed by Kanye West's new stage trick? Does it look familiar? Well, Cassper says that he did it before his idol.

The world has been pretty much freaking out after learning about the stage set up on Kanye West's new Saint Pablo tour- a floating stage where he performs most of his set above his audience.

But while the world shares pictures of the "genius" that is Kanye and lavish him with praise for the idea, Cassper wants his fans to know that he did it first.

The Doc Shebeleza rapper took to Twitter after news of Kanye's stage hit the internet, to point out that the idea is the same as the one he had for his Fill Up The Dome stage last year.

Cassper noted that Kanye's stage was "the very same concept" as his, and that it was a "great feeling" to have done it before his idol.

"Obviously the world will bug out more cause it's Kanye but it's just a great feeling for me to do something before my idol. African child!!! This pic should show you that we are just as great!!! All we need is a platform!! #SameStageAsCassper," the rapper said in an Instagram post showing his stage compared with Kanye's.

Cassper got flack earlier this year for apparently comparing himself to Kanye in an interview on US radio show Sway in the Morning, but after Cassper's posts about the stage, fans have been quick to cheekily hail Kanye as the "Cassper Nyovest of America."

Now, can you imagine what Cassper will do this year? Kanye better be taking notes.
