During a very recent episode of “The Download” podcast with Justin Laboy, Kanye West left the hosts and everyone listening in shock when he openly discussed his fantasy about a threesome with former First Lady Michelle Obama. Additionally, the rapper and fashion designer spoke about the many topics, insisting allegations of battery against his wife, Bianca Censori, and claiming to have tense relationships with other rappers Drake and Kendrick Lamar. The interview caused outrage and sparked devastating judgment.
Kanye’s statement provoked an angry reaction from his fans and society in general. Many of them considered the statement vulgar and insensitive, given Michelle Obama’s unwavering reputation in the past as the first lady and her dignified and graceful appearance. However, even though Kanye’s statement caused a shock wave, he did not comment on it, which leads to various assumptions regarding his reputation and public opinion.

The rapper’s statement shocked and angered the fans. It was hard for people to believe that one could describe a person with such words and, on the one hand, insult Kanye, and, on the other, kill the characteristic. A good half of the users not only criticized the rapper but also expressed their disappointment as a person. Many of the musician’s fans, having renounced their idol in public, stopped listening to his songs. The predominant number of comments demanded an apology from the rapper and asked for understanding about whether the rapper’s words were offensive and unfair.
However, Kanye West’s latest scandal is not his first one as he has been widely criticized before. Several of his actions have been the target for outrage due to him saying outrageous things in his songs. He was notorious for his behavior and the MTV Video Music Awards incident with Taylor Swift in 2009 or numerous comments in favor of Donald Trump. Kanye’s statement about slavery being a “choice” and numerous public battles with his fellow celebrities only fueled the fire and added to its controversy.
