Kanye West is all about love today after going on a week long Twitter binge that had folks extra bothered. The fact he turned ish into a couple new songs feeds into the PR stunt narrative, especially his new album cover. Get it all inside...
Folks have been cancelling Yeezus left and right and posting fake obits for the man who used to be known as Kanye "George Bush doesn't like black people" West. That still may be the case even after his new 'love" focused tracks he just dropped.
It's publicity stunt-tasticness at its finest. We're just shocked so many aren't seeing through what we've seen through since the day he married into the family who re-invented publicity stunt-ery. They do it so well, people actually believe that their (this now includes Kanye) way of thinking is "genius".
Just in time for his new album and new book to be released, Kanye's back on Twitter. And he's in rare, reckless and problematic form.
Kanye's gone from praising Trump and black alt-right conservative foolywangery Candace Owens to rocking the red MAGA hat and trolling folks' timelines. He claims he "doesn't know enough" about the party to call himself a conservative, but he's all about "free thinking".
Who's going to tell him supporting a man who literally calls entire races and groups murderers, rapists and "my black" is the opposite of expressing "free thought"?
Kaye's been exhausting us for days, and now he's putting out more bait for folks to chew on.
'Ye tried to pop back at all the folks - not just black folks either - who told him he's turning his back on the culture who put him on a pedestal and supporting a man who hates them. He stated President Obama - who once called Kanye a jackass - did nothing for Chicago after being President for 8 years. He exchanged tweets with conservatives AND Trump about running for office himself and "leading the black community" and more. He did everything but say what HE has done for Chicago himself the last decade he's been one of the kings of the rap game.
The Chicago native got all the praise from Trump croonies and supporters for "smartening up" to Trump's way of thinking. He never corrected them about where he stands. Only doubled down on "not following group thought." So Trump is the hill you want to die on, 'Ye? Let's not do this.
Now, in addition to announcing a conveniently timed plan to give back to his hometown, he dropped new music late last night to accompany his thirst-driven return to Twitter. Of course. He's been going at it with Hot 97's Ebro Darden after Ebro told the world about his off-air convo with Kanye. 'Ye apparently told the radio host that nobody had his back when he was getting help for opiod addiction and emotional disorders. Maybe it's because him and his Kardashian Klan told the world he was just "exhausted."
Kanye praising Ebro's rival Charlamagne Tha God wasn't enough revenge, so he responded with a song about "love." It's mostly gibberish, but we're sure his stans will call it genius. It's called "Lift Yourself," and it has lines like,“poop de scoop whoopity scoop diddy scoop poop."
Today, he put his political arguments with T.I. on wax. T.I. spoke up a few days ago about seeing Kanye. We guess this was why.

Oh.
After 'Ye's G.O.O.D. Music bro John Legend gave a polite read to Kanye, the "Jesus Walks" rapper says they're still cool. And he posted this:

Kanye firing most of his employees who don't see his "vision", his managers, his lawyers, and team and hired only full time lawyers because he's no one's "client"), wasn't the oddest thing he's done this week. Neither was him threatening media publications or inviting TMZ over to freestyle for them in order to prove he's not acting "erratically" or fighting with Kris Jenner as rumored.

Kanye's latest shock-and-awe Twitter announcement had folks shaking their head in "I knew it" type sadness.

Yep, the rapper says he's going to make Dr. Jan Adams, his late mother Donda West's plastic surgeon who he blamed for her death, his new album cover. Chile...
It's no surprise Yeezy's been harboring unresolved feelings about his mother's death, which is what most people attribute his erratic behavior over the years to. Could this be the signal everyone was on to something?
