Kanye West recently became increasingly vocal about his political opinions — but, wearing a MAGA hat and helping design Blexit (“the black exit from the Democratic Party”) art kind of backfired on him. Now, he says he’s taking a step back from politics completely to focus his energy on his art.
Using his go-to social platform as an outlet, Ye just tweeted out his “actual” beliefs. Just to clarify, here’s what the hip hop legend does stand for…
I support creating jobs and opportunities for people who need them the most, I support prison reform, I support common-sense gun laws that will make our world safer.
I support those who risk their lives to serve and protect us and I support holding people who misuse their power accountable.
I believe in love and compassion for people seeking asylum and parents who are fighting to protect their children from violence and war.
With this Twitter update, he also discusses his connection to Blexit and reveals he never intended for any association between himself and the anti-Dem movement headed by Candace Owens.
My eyes are now wide open and now realize I’ve been used to spread messages I don’t believe in. I am distancing myself from politics and completely focusing on being creative !!!
With his overdue album YHANDI expected Black Friday, the timing couldn’t be better for him to pour his energy back into his artwork. Sounds like Ye will be playing it safe from now on when it comes to politics.
So, no Kanye 2024?

I introduced Candace to the person who made the logo and they didn’t want their name on it so she used mine. I never wanted any association with Blexit. I have nothing to do with it.
