- Kanye West accused Frank Ocean of trying to dissuade him from voting for Donald Trump during a 2016 live stream.
- West, a celebrity endorser of Trump, rejected Ocean’s counsel and criticized him for swaying his political opinion.
- West claimed Ocean knew nothing about politics and challenged his right to comment on the matter.
Kanye West has courted controversy once again, this time targeting Frank Ocean. During a recent Instagram live stream with Digital Nas, the rapper alleged that Ocean had visited his house in 2016 and tried to dissuade him from voting for Donald Trump.
Ye, an outspoken celebrity endorser of Trump during the election, rejected Ocean’s counsel and blasted him for trying to sway his political opinion. He said, “Frank Ocean, p*ssy ass come over my house talking about Trump all day and how I shouldn’t support Trump. N***a f*ck you know about politics and n***a I’m your motherf*cking senior, OG, y’all used to come on tour with me n***a.”
West allegedly claimed that Ocean knew nothing about politics and challenged his right to comment on the matter. He also asserted his superiority in the music business, stating that he was more talented and prominent than Ocean. West suggested that other musicians might specialize in one area, but none possessed the versatility or genius he believed he had.
West argued, “None of you n***as can tell me about politics. F*ck you think? You read a book and now you can tell me some sh*t? None of these n***as are as talented. I’m the greatest motherf**king artist that ever existed. They can only be slightly better at one thing because they only do that one thing.”
This isn’t the first time Ye has stirred up controversy online in the past two months. Various news outlets report that he has been displaying extreme aggression and erratic behavior. His relationship with Bianca Censori is also reportedly facing challenges due to the same reason.
West has had a controversial association with Trump for a long time. After publicly endorsing Trump in 2016, he visited Trump Tower and later appeared at the White House wearing a red MAGA hat. The relationship ended when West declared his intention to run for president.
Frank Ocean and Kanye West previously collaborated on popular songs like “Frank’s Track” and “No Church in the Wild.” However, they are now on bad terms.
