Kanye West needs counseling, Rhymefest claims in a series of posts he published on Twitter today (February 12).
Rhymefest was responding to people’s questions when he said that his frequent writing collaborator “needs help.”
“@RHYMEFEST plz start back writing Kanye’s lyrics,” one person writes with two frowning emojis.
West premiered The Life of Pablo album yesterday (February 11), which included many lyrics deemed controversial, including one line about having sex with Taylor Swift.
“@lord_cornwall nah his mind and spirit isn’t right,” Rhymefest says.
Another user suggests that he should help the rapper write his Twitter posts. West has used Twitter to promote The Life of Pablo. He got into a beef on the social media site with Wiz Khalifa when he tentatively titled the album, WAVES.
“@JakeChatty my brother needs help, in the form of counseling,” Rhymefest responds. “Spiritual & mental. He should step away from the public & yesmen & heal.”
Rhymefest helped write “Jesus Walks” and someone points out that he could help West.
“@OGoGoooh @lord_cornwall I love my brother,” he continues. “I pray for his health not our entertainment.”

We all need counseling. Counseling shouldn’t be brought up like its a bad thing. That just perpetuates the stigma of it, and people don’t get help as a result. Anybody who is really doing something with their life is going to run into some big obstacles and need someone else’s help. Rhymefest’s comments show he is no expert. For all he knows, maybe Ye is getting counseling. He mentioned his pastor helping him the other day in an interview, and he has the support of family now. I’m no expert either-no man is-so I could be wrong, but Ye is obviously doing something right. Just look at the results of his fashion show, the success of his designs, and really making steps towards his fashion world dreams. Is he doing some things wrong? Absolutely. Stop judging. Who the heck is Rhymefest anyway? Pray for us all.
Exactly… Sound like he bitter he ain’t getting them checks like that no more… I read an article not too long ago where he said it kind of bothers him to see his friends and collaborators (Kanye) live a rockstar lifestyle while he still struggle to get his mortgage on time
you not knowing who rhymefest isn’t intelligent or positive at all
all that bullshit you wrote and you dont ev know who rhymefest is?? nigga you need counseling or kill yourself repetitively
Probably the most positive and intelligent comment I’ve read all week.
I’m really curious how Rhymefest made it sound negative? He said he loved his brother and prayed for him to get his mind right. He knows Kanye better than you seeing as they grew up together yet you claim to be his equal as far as diagnosing a man you’ve never met. Doesn’t take an expert to see Kanye West blast a 2 year old child on twitter is neither mature nor something a healthy mind does. Also suggest if you’re not familiar with an artist you do research on them and educate your mind rather than just plead ignorance by saying “who the heck is someone.” I’ve worked with Fest multiple times and he is certainly not bitter and still has love for his brother. He just won an Academy Award so those who continue to say you don’t know him so he’s not shit you need to understand that behind the scenes there are talented forces at work you’ll never know. Like Fest ghostwriting getting an Oscar.
True talk
You don’t know who Rhymefest is? Well, that just makes you human. There are literally billions of us.
I know who rhymesfest is, I actually been bumpin el che and blue collar lately that’s that clown ass nigga azcacu who dont know who rhymefest is
kanye needs a ghostwriter for realsies. and he needs to get off twitter forever.
that’s a true homie talking. I bet kanye listens. the man just told the truth, no chaser or filler
listen to who himself?
The fact is that Kanye isn’t as talented as people make out he collabs with a lot of artists who don’t get any credit. He seems to hand pick a lot of talent from the underground then take all the accolade for himself…kind of reminds me of Dr. Dre.
No matter how many co-producers or ghost writers he employs he will never have the respect from the people that look past his P.R. Stunts, clothes, tweets and kardashians he will always be a gay fish!
No, he is definitely talented. You trying to forget he was the hottest producer for all your favourite acts? You just a fucking hater and proved it with that “gay fish” comment. You have no idea what you are talking about.
For future reference hiphopdx— Anywhere you see Che Smith, Che, or any variety of the sort on a Kanye record, that’s indicative of a Rhymefest contribution. With that being said Che’s contributions to Kanye works go far beyond Jesus Walks. Not trying to throw shade on anyone at all, but sometimes it seems you guys fall a little short of credentials even though there is a great platform here.
A lot of imbeciles ask who Rhymefest is…. he’s the one that wrote Kanye’s BIGGEST hit to this day. So its 2016 and you dont know this? I suggest you STFU and don’t speak ill. Kanye has no talent, its all Rhymefest and Consequence pumpin out his hits for him.
three listens into The Life Of Pablo and the loss of Rhymefest in the writing fold is prevalent. The album is a mess.
