Kanye West’s new song explains his Twitter rant

Kanye West dropped a surprise new track Saturday to defend his pro-Trump advocacy – and to debate his stance with a skeptical critic, rapper T.I.

“You on some choosin’-side sh-t, I’m on some unified sh-t,” West raps in “Ye vs. The People,” which was apparently recorded Thursday – the day after he tweeted a picture of his Trump-autographed red MAGA hat.

“That hat stayed in my closet about a year and a half,” West continues. “Then one day I was like, ‘F–k it, I’ma do me’.”

“Okay I gotta say it, Ye, you sound high as a b-tch,” T.I. raps in response.

West launched the latest controversy – in a career studded with them – last week, when he tweeted praise for Candace Owens, an African-American commentator who has condemned the Black Lives Matter movement’s “victim mentality.”

After his comment – “I love the way Candace Owens thinks” – sparked widespread backlash from fans on social media, he upped the ante with a series of pro-Trump tweets.

“We are both dragon energy,” West said of the President on Wednesday. “He is my brother.”

“Thank you Kanye, very cool!” Trump posted in response.
