On News Years Day, West took to Twitter to unveil his musical collaboration with McCartney on the single, "Only One."
Following the release of the North-inspired track, West's fans flooded Twitter time limes with tweets about not knowing who McCartney is and their belief that West discovered the legend.
Billboard obtained a tweet of one fan describing McCartney as "new talent."
Check out some of the tweets below.
Despite the ignorance of many younger fans not knowing who the legendary "Beatles" singer is, McCartney seems unfazed by the tweets and tweeted a link to the "Only One" single the following day and wished his Twitter fans a "Happy Rocking New Year!"
West has yet to respond to the "Only One" Paul McCartney twitter frenzy.
Instead, West has issued a press release that explains how "Only One" was created.
In the press release obtained by Consequence of Sound, West explains that "Only One" -- a song about his daughter, North -- emerged during a moment in the studio when West felt as though his mother, Donda, was speaking through him to North.
"My mom was singing to me, and through me to my daughter," he said.
West insists that the lyrics to the song's chorus that read, "Hello, my only one. Just like the morning sun. You'll keep on rising till the sky knows your name," are lyrics that his mother created through him.
"Something powerful and undeniable had occurred through the power of music and of letting go. A message had been passed down through generations," concludes the press release.
