GLC Reinforces Suspicions About Kanye West

    Rapper GLC, who grew up with Kanye West and was featured on Ye’s first two albums, was a guest on WGCI’s The Chicago Morning Takeover last month for an interview that was seemingly snoozed on by the entire internet. During the interview, he went into detail about West’s evolution from a member of The Go Getters trio (alongside GLC and Really Doe) to untouchable celebrity superstar. He divulged some rather telling revelations he’s had about his longtime friend over the years and referred to West as a “sponge.”

    “Once you lose sight of the culture, you’re no longer in tune with the culture,” he said. “Kanye’s a sponge. Whatever he’s around, that’s what he becomes, so if you around a certain group of people on a regular basis, you begin to look like them, you may begin to act like them.”

    GLC also added West has always needed the approval of the white community to feel successful, and speculated that being married to Kim Kardashian and the circus that is her life might have contributed to his fragile mental state.

    “If I’m chillin’ in the crib and I got a father-in-law, but then my father-in-law becomes my mother-in law, it might cause me to go a little crazy,” he said in reference to Caitlyn Jenner. “Because every day, I’m like, ‘What up bro’ and now I gotta be like, ‘Yes ma’am. That right there … you might need to see a shrink for that.

    “Ye has always equated success to being accepted by the caucasian masses,” he continued. “So if the caucasian people embraced him then that means he made it.”

    Over the past 12 months, West’s off-kilter behavior — a meeting with Donald Trump, wild rants during his concerts and a November 2016 hospitalization — has often garnered more attention than his music has. Prior to Ye’s apparent breakdown, GLC claimed he “knew the downfall was near.” He recalled an altercation West had with the paparazzi.

    “I remember the incident when he was screaming on the camera man like, ‘Don’t take no pictures!’ and then he walked into a pole,” he said. “I went out to Paris and I was like, ‘G you gotta calm this down … how you screaming at the paparazzi for showing up … you screaming on them, that’s the sign of a weak man.”

    After he hopped on the plane to head home, he admitted he shed a few tears after realizing the friend he once knew wasn’t the same person he just saw.

    “This ain’t the dude I grew up with,” he said.

    GLC offered his support to Kanye during his hospitalization and took to Instagram to pay tribute to his friend while apologizing to Ye’s late mother, Donda West, who passed away in 2007.

    Currently, West is reportedly holed up in Wyoming somewhere working on new music.

    1. I’ve been saying GLC been jealous of Kanye for at least 3-4yrs now, I been noticed. He’s using this now trendy “let’s criticize Kanye” movement to his advantage. It hurts him that he’s now 40+ and he and Kanye grew up together in the same neighborhood with the same opportunities yet Kanye is a global and he’s just literally a nobody.

        1. Exactly! What the hell is dude talking about? Anybody with common sense can see Kanye been walking around like a brain dead extra from Get Out. Sounds like concerned friend to me.

    2. The sponge-thing is probably true, but to assume Kanye went crazy because of his father-in-law’s transgender identy is just pure bigotry.

    3. Why not call him or text him, if that was really his man 50 grand he would have just hit him and told him all of this instead of putting it on the internet!!! SMH

      1. IKR.
        Put it all in the public so people that don’t know anything about it can go around talking like they know everything about it because they heard something about it.

    4. Kanye hasn’t been rite since his mom died and that’s alot to do with it and as far white people to feel like a star that’s true because for real they make people go platinum look at lil slave ship aka lil yachty he is completely garbage and primitive only person white people think is a rap god is em and the other is Drake but they only like the white half tho

    5. Kanye always has been off his rocker. That shit didn’t just start. When he was first coming up, it was kind of quirky, but you could see the dude never had his bread all the way done, whether his mother was alive or not. People blaming her death on that shit need to GTFOH. The problem that he has had for the last 10 years or so is that like most rappers after they get out of touch with what they saw when they were coming up, he doesn’t make any good music anymore. It’s why hip hop and damn near every genre of music is a young, hungry man’s game unless you’re a musical genius like a Prince or something, and even they lose a step when they have been around forever.
