But that doesn’t mean he’s done with music—or meeting with some of the country’s most prominent figures. West took to Twitter on Wednesday to share a somewhat blurry photo of himself and Mark Zuckerberg doing karaoke together. “We sang Backstreet Boys’ ‘I Want It That Way,'” he captioned the attention-grabbing shot. While it’s unclear why Ye and the Facebook CEO were out together in the first place, people still had plenty to say about the get-together. “Kanye West and Mark Zuckerberg singing ‘I Want It That Way’ together,” is a phrase I never even considered possible until today,” tweeted one confused follower. > [](https://twitter.com/kanyewest/status/1062892813975674881) > [](https://twitter.com/NatMcMahan/status/1062899756593225728) See some more reactions below. > [](https://twitter.com/SullivanBobby/status/1062892938357813248) > [](https://twitter.com/emilyolle/status/1062919319300931584) > [](https://twitter.com/SethAMandel/status/1062894773596491778) > [](https://twitter.com/Floor8Official/status/1063073223095521280) > [](https://twitter.com/RMac18/status/1062965787793666048) > [](https://twitter.com/MargeGFarrell/status/1062919683240812544) > [](https://twitter.com/bridget%5Fpotasky/status/1062894530083590145) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5455755/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg-karaoke/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5455755/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg-karaoke/"},"headline":"Kanye West and Mark Zuckerberg Sing Backstreet Boys Karaoke Together","datePublished":"2018-11-15T16:12:32.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:56:02.882Z","description":"They performed a rendition of \"I Want It That Way\"","url":"https://time.com/5455755/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg-karaoke/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Kanye West","Mark Zuckerberg"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt2d1f2c03393a3851/69893f3b4ee262a7103135fd/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt2d1f2c03393a3851/69893f3b4ee262a7103135fd/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Kanye West and Mark Zuckerberg","caption":"Kanye West and Mark Zuckerberg","creditText":"Getty Images (2)","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5455755/kanye-west-mark-zuckerberg-karaoke/","name":"Kanye West and Mark Zuckerberg Sing Backstreet Boys Karaoke Together"}}]}] ```
