Even if you're not a fan of Kanye, you've got to see that this is way way too ruthless.

Melbourne street artist Lushsux has painted a new piece focused on Kanye, but it's gone too far this time. 

The mural takes a stab at trivialising Kanye's serious issues with mental health, which required hospitalisation for psychiatric evaluation and treatment.

The mural displays a beyond harmful stereotype of mental illness - the straitjacket sporting, tongue-hanging-out "crazy" person - splashed across a wall somewhere in Melbourne.

This is a really shitty joke, and it's not on.
