Kanye West may be a self-proclaimed “college dropout,” but he has now proven that he has a doctorate degree from Coon-ville University. That is not only my sentiment, but the sentiment of millions of fans he just lost, as well as Snoop Dogg and many other celebs who are speaking out against the latest self-hating tactics he’s just pulled in the media.

Ahead of his upcoming album, in one of his seemingly most ignorant publicity stunts ever (which, according to Hot 97 DJ, Ebro, Kanye actually confirmed), Kanye’s pissing off a LOT of folks with his latest pro-Donald Trump support antics. Since then, even his own Good Music label artist has turned against him, but he does have a few celebrity supporters: Donald Trump and get this- SoSo Def mogul, Jermaine Dupri a.k.a. Janet Jackson’s alleged secret boo-thang.
What They Putting In The Water At Ye’s House?
Before we get into how Snoop Dogg has called ‘Mr. Kardashian’ out, let’s first remind y’all of why ‘Ye is currently trending. Kanye has sparked a media firestorm after re-emerging on social media days ago, with all sorts of bro-mance type tweets, professing his unwavering “love” for for his “brother,” Donald Trump. He also proceeded to bash former President Barack Obama in the process. Check out some of Kanye’s tweets below:

@kanyewest:”You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don’t agree with everything anyone does. That’s what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.”
He then bashed Obama:
“Obama was in office for eight years and nothing in Chicago changed.”
Kanye then attempted to defend his statements behind the guise of labeling them as ‘free thinking independent thoughts’ and such:

Ye’ also alluded that Black people, who do not support Trump’s actions, are making themselves victims:

He also posted a photo of his autographed “Make America Great Again” hat from his idol, Trump:

And this tweet about him being “out of the sunken place” (referring to the film, “Get Out,”) is hilarious and sad at the same time:

Meanwhile, Trump tweeted this and Kanye was very proud that he did so:

Ironically, neither Kanye nor Trump mentioned the fact that Trump was quick to praise some of the white supremacists in Charlottesville, VA, praising some of them as “fine people.” Yet, Trump has ignored the recent African American ‘Waffle House hero,’ James Shaw Jr.’s, brave actions of saving the lives of many, after wrestling the gun away from Caucasian murderer, Travis Reinking, who killed four Waffle House customers and made headlines across the country. But I digress, moving on….
Celebrities React To Kanye
After Kanye showed his true colors, Snoop Dogg has been trolling the hell outta him, urging him to “Get out” and away from the ‘sunken place’ of the Kardashians:

Kanye’s own artist/”Underground” executive producer, John Legend, denounced everything Kanye is representing:
I love that great, brilliant artists have the power to imagine a better future. But artists can't be blind to the truth.
— John Legend (@johnlegend) April 25, 2018
I imagine there's some comfort in imagining a future without racism and projecting that onto the present. Thinking if we just deny the truth, it doesn't exist. If history is erased, we don't have to deal with its consequences. However…

Nothing’s wrong with expressing freedom of speech, that’s everyone’s right, but nothing’s also wrong with getting called out about. Therefore Kanye is getting the publicity he’s clearly asked for. It’s gonna be interesting to see if his new album and Yeezy shoes fall to the pits of hell after all this.
