Kanye has made a habit of supporting "cancelled" celebrities:
- XXXtentacion
- YMW Melly
- 6ix9ine
- Chris Brown
- R. Kelly
- Bill Cosby
- DaBaby
- Trump
- Marylin Manson
Apart from Trump (Who, I think, Kanye cosied up with to push certain political reforms) I presume his support stems from his Christian inclinations.
Y'all need to let that shyt go.
That comment was a critique on how so many of us in the 21st century are willingly subjecting ourselves to political, mental and wage slavery. The "400 years" part gives it away.
