Kanye West’s recent Twitter spree, which revealed some of his ideology and expressed support for conservative commentator Candace Owens, elicited widespread criticism over the weekend. But the comments also earned him praise from many right-wing observers, including controversial conspiracy theorist Alex Jones of InfoWars.
“.@kanyewest I admire your bold moves against the thought police,” Jones wrote. “And if you want to see these control-freak vampires really go crazy, please join me on my broadcast!”
West’s comments also prompted a phone conversation with Hot 97’s Ebro Darden, who challenged the G.O.O.D. Music founder on many of his comments. On Monday’s (April 23) edition of Ebro In The Morning, Darden shared some of the things said during this discussion.
Darden noted that West’s ultimate goal is to deprogram people.
“I wanna have an open dialogue,” ‘Ye reportedly told the radio host.
According to Darden, West only likes Candace Owens — a critic of the Black Lives Matter movement and proponent of respectability politics — because she’s “challenging conventional black thought.” But ‘Ye has a deep admiration for Donald Trump despite the blowback from their infamous meeting in 2016.
“I do love Donald Trump,” he said, according to Darden.
West also told Darden how he felt demonized and believed nobody supported him while he was in the hospital. The Hot 97 personality claimed he refuted these assertions, along with many of the music superstar’s other opinions.
Fellow hosts Peter Rosenberg and Laura Stylez also chimed in, agreeing with Darden about how West is living in a bubble and doesn’t understand how damaging his words are.
In the phone conversation, West reportedly said he just wants to lead with love. But the Ebro In the Morning cast decried this claim by noting how West was aligning himself with people who do just the opposite.

Who else but KANYE! “He’s Kanye! Kanye! You never ever know what he’s gonna do next! He’s Kanye! Kanye! (Giggity Giggity Giggity Giggity…HOW SWAY!?)”
Mad respect for Kanye. Last 5 years have been not having but self-victimization. Shit is played out
Kanye just became the most punk rapper of this generation, it used to be Eminem when he was pissing off GLAAD, but now he’s just a media puppet. There’s nothing wrong with loving Trump.
There’s nothing wrong with loving men. Do you son
Kanye is a genius. He’s gotta sell records. So he Says he’s feeling conservative shit. Boom, just opened up a whole new market for himself. The same people that were shitting on him for years over the Taylor Swift fallout, now they’re all defending him!
That’s what I think it’s about. He’s partially trolling but I also think he knows something. It might not be as simple as Kanye switching to the right. Trump isn’t the average Republican even though he’s now being compromised when it comes to his war policy.
Kanye is gone and never coming back. The kardashians have him and will never let go. He is embracing far right views. I dont hate republicans or democrats but i do hate far right and far left views. There is a middle. And i like to believe most of us are in the middle. Kanye embracing far right views is disgusting and its self hate, really. The far right like alex jones are the same people that say obama wasnt born here even though he was. The alex jones side says mrs obama is a man and obama is gay. The alex jones side says sandy hook never happened and the parents were actors. The far right is a racist evil part that loves racial politics. The far left has its problems too but kanye embracing conspiracy theorary racist is just not ok…smh
Rip kanye west:(
There is a right and there is a left – among the people. But both right and left are kept at war by those at the top. I don’t think Kanye is trying to pimp conservatism, so much as he is programming black brains to break out of the fight this and fight that mentality that the elites try to create, and move them to a place where they focus on betterment 100%. How many black businesses are formed by Black Lives Matters followers? How many Blacks are employed because of that movement? How many Blacks are seeing their day to day tangibly changed by fighting? How does Black Lives Matter give Blacks political control, when all it is, is a movement to increase turnout to vote for white Democrat Illuminati candidates? Even Black candidates like Obama are little more than employees of White elites who enrich themselves, and do nothing to change black lives. Eight years of Obama, and you still see a need for Black Lives Matters. Why? Obama couldn’t do anything, because the elites he served didn’t want him to. Hell, Bush had fewer Police shootings.
How many Blacks would see their lives tangibly changed if the hidden elites who select our leaders and are ginning up the fights were taken out?
What if the elites weren’t sucking up all those pilfered tax dollars, and stifling the economy, and blacks were to turn their back on the past, and just focus on bettering everything about their economic situation right now? What if blacks realized that Eric Garner was killed not because a cop was racist, but because the elites create laws like no selling loose cigarettes, and the elites mandate that law needs to be enforced up to and including shooting the resister? What if the elites who set everything up were the focus, rather than their tools in society at the ground level? What if Blacks realized elites using government to control was their problem, and they shifted focus from Police to the elites making the laws? That is where Kanye is trying to lead people slowly with little pushes.
In the next months, people will realize what Kanye was doing in trying to open the door in black minds a crack to not always supporting the left, and why he is doing it. They will also realize why he likes Trump, which is something you can’t grasp, unless you believe in the Illuminati and the elites. There are things going on behind the scenes with government and the elites which will probably blow everyone’s minds.
For now, just keep an open mind.
He’s no longer Kanye West… he’s Kanye WOKE
Well this is what happens when nearly 100% of Hip Hop Media subscribes to an ideological and political echochamber for so long. Eventually this was going to happen, and I’m personally glad its happening. Its going to make music more interesting.
Kanye lost his gottdamn mind. That white pussy got him going crazy. We need that college dropout Kanye back. Illuminati need to expire his membership ASAP
Great video. Didn’t want to post because……
But great video
Victor mentality over victim mentality folks. If you calling him a coon or he is lost then you are a long time subscriber to victim mentality
“Kanye is such a sell out coon, how dare he tell black people they are capable of empowering themselves and they are not victims and they are the only ones who are in control of their own futures. We are supposed to keep pretending that we are incapable of empowerment because of racism, cause that will really show these evil white people who’s boss”
How can some people seriously not grasp the utter hypocrisy and counterproductiveness of this line of thinking?
Nowadays, being a liberal means supporting the establishment, and being conservative means being rebellious and antiestablishment.
It really depends on the context. The real issue is people trying to categorize morals, which is totally unfair, and extremely specific. People need to learn to lead their own lives instead of trying to put labels on everyone who doesn’t think the way they do. Extremists also make both sides look bad. What am I if I support illegal immigrants, but totally against gay marriage?
People should be allowed to have their own opinions. Who said all blacks have to be liberals? The Democratic party just uses blacks for their votes n does nothing for them. But Kanye should be careful not to be used by the racists to boost their agenda. The black community should allow left and right voices to coexist within their communities. Black conservatives have good points too like individual responsibility, the negative hood culture and restoring the black family
The whole left and right paradigm is just a divisive scam. Both “left” and “right” serve the same agenda dictated to them by the zionist financial elite. Rest is all political theater for the US actually has a one-party system. All of these politicians, president etc have been compromised. Blackmail, threatening, bribing – all viable means to compromise them into puppets who do as those who controls the money supply tell them to. Or else..
Did you guys read about the black man in a Trump “make america great again” hat and t-shirt who beat up a mexican while hurling racial insults at him? I thought black people couldn’t be Trump supporters or racist. Can you please tell me how that black man’s actions were actually caused by the white man now.
Oh and if you don’t believe me, just Google “Black man wearing Make America Great Again hat beats up Mexican man”, this happened like a day ago i think, i read about it yesterday.
Just admit it you hate black people . Kanye, endorses the right (you know your side of the argument) but yet your hate for people with more melanin/black still overrides everything . Your life will be much more enjoyable when you stop engaging in a musical genre that is and has been predominately black . PS, Google white racist beats up teenage girl and you will witness that there are ignorant idiots like you on both sides black and white .
Why can’t the man have his own opinions? He shouldn’t be demonized for thinking on his own
I just hate the hype machine that precedes everything nowadays. You can always tell when someone is about to drop a project, because they’ll say as much controversial stuff as they can muster, they’ll get arrested, they’ll start some crazy rumor, they’ll make a sex tape. Whatever it takes to sell, no matter how desperate. It’s cheap. Kanye talks as if he’s discovered vedantaism or existentialism, but he hasn’t gotten to the chapter yet about being humble and without ego. Peace.
This is nothing new. If you are black, you MUST agree with the radical Marxist left or you will get a figurative WHIPPING in the fake news media by the overseers. Agents of the post modernist / Neo Marxist ideological Matrix.
Even if you just vaguely may have some right leaning views, like “more socialism seems to live to more poverty and misery” the white people that express this are cast as “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic hateful white supremacists” by the left. But as unfair that is, the black/Latino, women, LGBT person gets it WAY worse. The white person on the right serves a great villain in the story arc and is permitted to exist, but anyone else vaguely with right wing views must be completely ostracized, exiled, dehumanized, and destroyed, because it’s like a glitch in the Matrix that leads down the rabbit hole to a more objective philosophical framework.
Politics in America:
Straight white men are privileged in that they are permitted and allowed by the cult(ure) to have a diverse range of political philosophical views.
Everyone with a different identity (racial minorities, women, LGBT, etc) have their thoughts and political philosophy dictated to them by the cult(ure) based on the color of their skin or other superficial attribute, and MUST conform. Or face severe backlash from the society.
I love when the “free thinkers” use language like “cucks” and “self victimization” and “Marxists”… as if they came up with those terms themselves. ? ? ?
Don’t get it twisted. You guys are repeating mindless rhetoric too.
So how many of the Words you used in your comment have you invented??
Forming your own opinion doesnt mean you have to think like nobody else on the planet. He can agree with other opinions and use the same terminology than people thinking alike and still be a free thinker
To say that Democrats haven’t helped black people in this country is just FACTUALLY wrong. True, politicians fuck over all of us equally, both left and right. But to say that the left “uses black people for votes” is the most cheap, irrational cop out you can think of, on top of the fact that it’s incorrect to begin with… With that being said, if you think that Consevative Republicans aren’t using black people to spread their agenda of hate, alternative facts, homophobia, racism, rich vs. poor, then you’re delusinal as fuck… Don’t let a bunch of racist white boys parading themselves as “black republicans” fool you… If you think Democrats don’t care about black people, then you’ve never met a Republican. Republicans not only hate, despise, but will do anything in their power to bring down black people. Every time we elect a Republican president the country always goes to shit until the Democrats get back in the office and fix the bullshit that the right did. Obama bringing us out of recession is an example. Now they elected the worst president in American history and his administration is failing every day and going to shit but all the sudden they like black people??? Give me a break.
Oh, and this is the last time I ever show love for Kanye’s fake, pseudo intellectual Ass.
Lowest black unemployment ever recorded dumbass and Trump is the worst president ever? Better check your facts you fucking Libtard. MAGA!!
This no longer relevant mentally ill motherfucker should be ashamed of himself! Never liked him or his music and never will!
