His cap says it all, but the American rapper, Kanye West is apparently done trying to fix America.
According to a series of tweets on Kanye’s timeline, the rapper said he was done with politics and cried foul saying that he was used.

I support those who risk their lives to serve and protect us and I support holding people who misuse their power accountable.
I believe in love and compassion for people seeking asylum and parents who are fighting to protect their children from violence and war.

I introduced Candace to the person who made the logo and they didn’t want their name on it so she used mine. I never wanted any association with Blexit. I have nothing to do with it.

My eyes are now wide open and now realize I’ve been used to spread messages I don’t believe in. I am distancing myself from politics and completely focusing on being creative !!!

“My eyes are now wide open and now realize I’ve been used to spread messages I don’t believe in. I am distancing myself from politics and completely focusing on being creative !!!” said Kanye West in his last tweet.
Kanye West had incorporated recently fashion into politics in order to combat the Democratic Party. Ye had designed a new line of apparel for the “Blexit” campaign in collaboration with Candace Owens, which specifically encourages black voters to leave the Democratic party.
The new collection was revealed at the Turning Point USA’s Young Black Leadership Summit for black conservatives in Washington D.C. on Saturday (Oct. 27). The line includes an assortment of hats and shirt with the slogans “We Free” or “Blexit” on them.
The term “Blexi” mimics Britain’s exit from the European Union (Brexit).
“Blexit is a renaissance, and I am blessed to say that this logo, these colors, were created by my dear friend and fellow superhero Kanye West,” said the Turning Point USA communications director Candace Owens.
However according to Ye, he never wanted anything to do with the Blexit.
“I introduced Candace to the person who made the logo and they didn’t want their name on it so she used mine. I never wanted any association with Blexit. I have nothing to do with it,” said Kanye.
Kanye West has been very vocal about his support for Trump and even met with the President at the White House urging black voters to explore other options besides candidates in the Democratic Party.
However, what’s now confusing is that two weeks after the controversial meeting at the White House with President Trump, rapper Kanye West says that he is done with politics and will now focus on being a creative.
On quitting politics, Kanye West however did not mention President Trump specifically.
Fans however have not bought allegations by the rapper when he said he was ‘used.’
To be clear, Kanye West is in his 40s, he wasn’t fooled, he wasn’t used, he wasn’t tricked, he wasn’t bamboozled into supporting hate, he made a choice. Pretending to distance himself just makes him a coward as well.

Yes, you got used…but no one forced you to wear a MAGA hat. Nobody forced you to call for abolishing the 13th Amendment.
You need to do something that Trump refuses to do: take real responsibility for your own actions. Do that, and you might be respected once more. Maybe.

You likened the president to a super hero. That ain’t being used, that’s hero worship right there

Do you think famous musicians can influence fan’s political opinions?
