Kanye West appeared to be auditioning for the ‘Get Out’ sequel live on Twitter last night, because the rapper was serving all sorts of sunken place.
In a stream of tweets that played out over the course of the entire day, Ye professed his love for his “brother” Donald Trump, slammed Barack Obama, and went on to slam those critiquing him for his views.
Naturally, his liberal leaning (and heavily Afro-American) support-base clapped back in disbelief. Even celebs added to the “why, Kanye?’ sentiment.
However, Yeezy did find support from…some. See what we mean below…
First to spring to his defence was Chance The Rapper, who offered the following…
Thereafter wife Kim Kardashian waded in on the debate (which saw “Kanye” mentioned over 1 million times on Twitter). She said:
*******************
Once upon a time “all publicity was good publicity.” However, Kanye’s actions of late make it difficult to see how he plans to sell his slate of new music to a fanbase so angered by this behavior. Political affiliations aside, he’s far too seasoned to be caping for this cause at the expense of his own career. He’s no one’s renaissance man – especially in a climate as fraught as now.
As for Kim, she ought to can it.
Their collective brand of attention-seeking is one of the very things that’s been the undoing of Kanye as many have known and loved him. It’s by no means her” fault, but the overall association is pretty much where “sunken place” comparisons are pulled from. A reality the Wests seem to be missing entirely.
Do they really think redneck trumpists will buy his music ?
They won’t. They only like his tweets because it something they can use against democrats and Black people in general, in this style : we are not evil, even a former one of you is turning is back and encensing Trump etc.
He’s doing with politics what Miley Cyrus has done with Rnb and Pop landscape : emulating Black music to have success with “Bangerz!” ; and then when the racist era Trump arrived, she tried to be the whitest white popstar possible, demonizing her former self. Results : A big flop.
West will flop. Because even the whites who usually buy his music are liberals.
Don’t forget republicans and rednecks despise rap music.
Wow u were spot on ????
Applause. Your entire staement is pure facts. All this fool is doing is adding to the division & dissent of Americans at the moment. And all for the sake of selling his new music.
Kanye West is full of sh*t. always has been, always will be.
*statement
He won’t flop because Kanye is still a huge brand in the rap industry and he has talent. He just won’t be selling as high as he did back in the day. It would have been smarter for him to keep his political decisions to himself but as usual he is thirsty for attention
I will not be supporting Kanye this time round.
Meme tell me what you think of my new poem called “Boy Bye”
I’m a b**** in the afternoon
But I’m an angel
In this dark cold hotel room
If you wanna be with me
Baby there’s a price to pay
But I’m leaving you
Cause ya ass is cray cray
Troll alert!!!!!!
Yes it’s ok to have an opinion Kanye and Kim, but it is not ok to state untruths and speak on things you know very little about. Obama didn’t do because he couldn’t. Congress ultimately makes decisions. So when Trump does something with Chicago and totally gentrifies your hometown and displaces poor minorities don’t complain. So over him and all of them.
I agree, Chicago was not President Obama’s issue. He was president, not mayor.
He’s done. And for Chance to jeaporadize his own career for this clown is a shame. Bye Chance. And I noticed years ago that’s akin doesn’t have any of own opinions. She didn’t write this. Somebody is trying to clean up his mess. Too late.
*Kim doesn’t have any of her own opinions* ?
What’s there to like about Trump?. Kanye really lost his mind.
Quite a few, policy-wise. Progress (of any kind) on North Korea, strong on border security, tax policy designed to stimulate growth, recalibration of NAFTA and Pacific trade deals, strong on the 2nd Amendment — Trump has been a pretty decent president, even if he’s not the greatest person. His administration’s food boxes idea was/is pure bs, but otherwise, he’s not that bad. In 2016, the USA elected a president, not a homecoming king.
Shut up b|tch and stop impersonating me you trash
Kanye West did not vote for Donald Trump….. he did not vote at all he said it on TV
Haha all you ignorant racist liberals are mad at Kanye…
You constantly attack Trump and republicans for the same thing you guys are attempting to do to Kanye…
Throwing dirt on his name, calling him crazy, and telling him to shutup…
You idiots do realize that your actions are a form of oppression. Black people don’t have to be democrats, and Kanye has the right to have his own opinions. You should try it sometime, set your minds free. Blacks have faithfully voted for democrats for 40+ years and they have done NOTHING to progress your communities. In fact, in most cases the democratic leadership has destroyed these communities. They want to keep you in your box, and only come around every 4 years to use you for your vote…WAKE UP!
Yada yada yada…why not you STFU? Ain’t nobody on here taking political commentary from a TROLL seriously.
Yeah but most blacks would rather have a democrat who doeznt give ’em ANYthing, than a racist republican come in & take away what little they DO have & give to the RICH. Do your homework & git ‘cho head outta Donald Dump’s neo-nazi ass long enough to educate yourself. Historically there is a Reason why most minorities vote democratic.
I don’t see that marriage lasting through to 2019.
As abhorrent as I find Kanye’s defence of Trump, I find it more disgusting when white liberals try to attack us by questioning our mental health
I feel bad for alllll the artist he produced teyona Taylor’s will flop simply because his name is attached sad
#kanyecanceled
Praying for kanye
Luckily for me I don’t support either of these folks, anyone who supports RACIST OLE TRUMP doesn’t get a thought from me!!
People who love the ignorant, vacuous and vapid music out now won’t buy his music either. I love free thinkers and those not afraid to say what they are thinking. In that I do respect Trump. You can disagree with someone but that does not mean you cannot have a respect them. If I were Mexican, I probably would not like Trump.
If you were a decent human being you probably wouldn’t like him either. And you would think such a “free thinker” wouldn’t be such an enemy of the Free Press.
