Still not convinced that these moves are being choreographed by GOPA (Jarvanka wing) in response to recent polling data pointing to WEXIT (Biden Builds Polling Lead in Battleground States, With Strength Among White Voters):
Kanye Breaks with Trump 2.0:
Kanye West calls out President Trump in new rap: 'How about we stop hiding in bunkers?'
6:33 p.m. ET July 9, 2020
The rapper, 43, said in a "rambling" interview Tuesday with Forbes that he contracted the coronavirus in February, no longer supports President Donald Trump and plans to run as a member of the "Birthday Party."
And on Thursday, Forbes released audio of three freestyle raps recorded during the West interview. The muffled, meandering songs feature him rapping without accompaniment, as he takes on coronavirus, racial justice protests and Trump himself.
The lyrics reference how Trump was briefly moved to the White House's underground bunker in May amid protests over the death of George Floyd, a Black man who died after police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on his neck for almost nine minutes in Minneapolis.
Talking to Forbes, West said he has lost confidence in Trump's leadership, despite showing public support for the president over the last four years.
"I am taking the red hat off," he said. "It looks like one big mess to me. … One of the main reasons I wore the red hat as a protest to the segregation of votes in the Black community. Also, other than the fact that I like Trump hotels and the saxophones in the lobby.”
"Try to keep us quiet, cause riots / look at what the COVID's made / this hate," West raps on a track titled "This Is What the Covid's Made." "How about we change up the meal plan / how about we stop hiding in the bunkers and be a real man?"
