Amidst all the frenzy surrounding his divorce from Kim Kardashian, Kanye West has raised eyebrows with his new poem titled “Dead”.

The rapper took to his handle to share a new dark poem about his murder. It reads, “No one wanted to tell me I was Dead. And only people that would talk to me were in my head. No one wanted to tell me I was Dead. Only people who loved me visit in their dreams instead. My kids would dance for me in the home I once led. I found out one day at the newsstand in purgatory there was a front-page article of my murderers story. I was so surprised at what it said. This info is for the living, And surprise.. Yor’re Dead.”

Kanye West shared on his Instagram account the poem “Dark”, and captioned, “I feel already compromised that I have to justify my expression after over 20 years of art that I’ve contributed to the planet but I also see the need to make sure we as a species are allowed to still feel anything Men not allowed to cry celebrities not allowed to cry I will not explain this new piece for the explanation destroys the mystery and magic of true love and puts it in a box that can be counted Art is subjective Art only works when it is the artist absolute truth Someone’s truth can be another person lie We don’t all have to feel the same because we are not the same Without further ado I present to you my latest creation it is called DEAD”

 

The rapper most recently faced backlash for his ‘Easy’ music video, in which the depicts animated Pete Davidson being beheaded and buried alive, Te SNL star is currently dating Kanye’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian. Defending his video, Ye said,”Art is therapy just like this view, art is protected as freedom of speech, art inspires and simplifies the world. Art is not a proxy for any ill or harm. Any suggestion otherwise about my art is false and mal intended.”
