Kanye West is not letting go.
Despite the disaster of his first presidential campaign, in 2020, the rapper has apparently decided that he still has a chance to convince American voters in 2024. He has indeed announced his candidacy!
In any case, this is what he declared to the paparazzi who asked him the question last weekend, as relayed by Consequence of Sound and Billboard.
“Yes… It's simple….
It's just that we're going to the future,” he said.
The hip-hop singer said he approached far-right personality Milo Yiannopoulos to "work on the campaign".
The man in question is known for his explosive and scandalous statements, so much so that he was banned from Facebook, which considered him "too dangerous".
Return loser?
In addition, Kanye West has just recovered a platform of expression with the reactivation of his Twitter account by his friend Elon Musk.
The rapper had returned to the network writing "Shalom", one more provocation for the one who had been excluded from the site for anti-Semitism.

Either way, the rapper is unlikely to weigh in in the upcoming presidential debate, even in a deeply divided America.
During his first participation in the election, he had gathered only 70,000 votes under his “Birthday Party”.
At the time, he also had much more funds than today.
Kanye West has lost its many partnerships with Gap, Adidas, or Balenciaga.
A loss that he himself estimated at 2 billion dollars.
