Kanye West is awaiting an apology from John Legend as well as Big Sean for not supporting him during his presidential campaign.
For the rapper, who embarked on the race for the White House as an independent candidate, the two artists who were his foals were more than ungrateful to him.
“When I introduced myself, both John Legend and Big Sean went to the Democrats instead of the guy who really changed their lives.
I want an apology… but they're freaking out, ”he lamented during a passage in the
Drink Champs
podcast
.
Resentful
If the presidential campaign of Kanye West caused a lot of ink to flow in 2020, the artist did not manage to convince many people, collecting around 60,000 votes distributed among twelve states. And as for the distancing of John Legend vis-à-vis Kanye West, it does not date from the last presidential election during which he actively supported the Democratic camp, first through Elizabeth Warren, and then by siding. behind Joe Biden's candidacy.
As early as 2018, the crooner worried about the support of his mentor to Donald Trump in a private conversation that the rapper had chosen to reveal on Twitter, without the agreement of Chrissy Teigen's husband.
“You are far too powerful and influential to support who he is and what he stands for.
As you know, what you say means a lot to your fans, ”said John Legend in this conversation relayed by The Blast.
To which Kanye West replied: “I love you John and I appreciate your thoughts.
Your attempt to rally my fans or my heritage is a fear-based tactic to manipulate my freedom of thought.
