Kanye West has been given a brand new moniker…by Madonna.
Yes, after she teased their forthcoming collaboration, she has declared that he is the black…her.
Her words below…
Speaking to the New York Daily News, she shared:
Kanye is the black Madonna. We know, and recognise, that we have that in common. We’re comrades in the envelope-pushing genre.
Madge’s comments come before the release of her brand new album ‘Rebel Heart’ and West’s forthcoming LP, set to mark his first since his recent joining of Jay Brown’s Roc Nation.
She also addressed the deaths of Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston in the same interview, sharing:
I’ve been doing what I’ve been doing for over three decades, so in many ways I feel like a survivor. I see that many of my peers, and friends, and people I collaborated with are no longer with us.
That gave me pause. I said, ‘Wow, I can’t believe I made it this far.’ That was a catalyst for me.
