Kanye West is seemingly going through another episode and he’s allegedly pissing off the Kardashian Klan and a couple of celebs who were brave enough to speak up. Over the weekend, 'Ye made a campaign appearance in South Carolina where he talked about his wife contemplating abortion, how she might divorce him and made problematic claims about abolitionist Harriet Tubman.
While some folks are asking "Whose mans is this?," others are pleading with friends and family of Kanye to come get him and give him the mental health care they believe he needs.
Kanye West is back in the headlines for making controversial statements about slavery yet AGAIN! Last night, the Jesus is King rapper hosted a political campaign rally in South Carolina (for registered guests only), following his 4th of July announcement that he was running for president this November. Ye is looking to qualify for the ballot in S.C. as an independent candidate via the “Birthday Party.”
Kanye walked in the Exquis Event Center in North Charleston like a walking billboard with “2020” shaved into his head and he rocked a flak jacket (body armor) that said “SECURITY” on it.
While speaking before potential supporters, the 43-year-old revealed he and his wife, Kim Kardashian West, seriously considered terminating their first pregnancy. He first talked about how his mother, Donda West, "saved his life" after his father wanted to abort him.

”My dad wanted to abort me. My mom saved my life. There would have been no Kanye West because my dad was too busy,” he told the crowd.
”I almost killed my daughter,” he screamed while fighting back tears, opening up about how he and Kim thought about aborting their first pregnancy.
Peep the clip above.
'Ye said abortion should be legal and that there should be financial incentives to help struggling mothers to discourage the practice.
“Everybody that has a baby gets a million dollars,” he said as an example.
This statement wasn't the only reason so many are calling and pleading for him to get help.
Kanye shared a message from God changed their minds and they ended up welcoming their first child, North West, in 2013. After sharing the story, he mentioned his wife could possibly be so upset with him for revealing “his truth” that she may want to divorce him.
"So even if my wife were to divorce me after this speech, she brought North into the world, even when I didn't want to," the Chi-town rapper said. "She stood up, and she protected that child."
So he revealed this extremely personal medical information of hers without her blessing? Oh.
And that’s not even the most...interesting...part of his appearance. This man had the audacity to say abolitionist Harriet Tubman didn’t actually FREE slaves.
”Harriet Tubman never actually freed the slaves. She just had the slaves go work for other white people,” he said. Sounds like when he said 400 years of slavery was a CHOICE two years ago.
Check it:
Ye's "political rally" is pissing folks off - reportedly - especially his wife and her family.
As always, "sources" have hit up TMZ about Kanye and here's what they had to say:
Our sources say those around him believe Kanye is in desperate need of professional help and is in the middle of a serious bipolar episode, but he won't listen to them.
Suffice it to say ... we're told the family is upset that Kanye talked about Kim's first pregnancy and how they discussed abortion, something he says he wanted. Then he blurted out that Kim might divorce him for saying that, but even if she does, he'd thank her for having North.
The "source" went on to say they believe Kanye is hurting his own businesses with comments like the Harriet tubman one, but Kim's won't be because she has distinguished her brand from his so thoroughly.
We see where certain folks' priorities lie.
Rapper T.I., R&B singer Trey Songz and photog Mel D. Cole shared their thoughts about Ye's rally:
Disability activist @crutches_and_spice broke down the difference between a disability and a chosen behavior, targeting Kanye's antics:
Oh, and get this....
Kanye said he would like to have Jay-Z as his running mate. During an interview with local Z93 Jamz radio host Kris Kaylin, Kanye said he came to a revelation that Jay, whom he has had a broken relationship with for years, should be his Vice President.
He explained his current running mate Michelle Tidball - a Wyoming preacher - would happily take another position in his cabinet if he found another running mate. Ye mentioned he hadn't spoken to Hov in a long time, but considers it a good thing because it proves he and Jay are actually brothers and bonded for life....
Take a listen below:
By the way, Kanye announced he's releasing a new album July 24th, so this easily could be PR stunts (in addition to MANY other things) to get album sales:
It's important we point out the WHY and the motives behind certain actions, since he has a large enough cult following - who are already co-signing his every word and ready to write him in on the Presidential ballot - to actually sway the election in Trump or Biden's favor. That's a problem.
The presidential hopeful already appears on Oklahoma's presidential ballot, but he missed the deadline to qualify for the ballot in several other states.

The PABLO rapper needed 10,000 signatures by noon Monday to appear on the South Carolina ballot, but he didn't make the cut. According to TMZ, the State Election Commission hasn't heard anything from Ye or his campaign before the deadline.
