Ye
aka
Kanye
West
compared
himself
to
disgraced
singer
R.
Kelly,
Diddy,
Bill
Cosby
and
Jesus
Christ
in
a
new
song
at
his
Chicago
show.
According
to
XXL,
on
Thursday
(Feb.
8),
Kanye
West
and
Ty
Dolla
$ign
took
the
stage
at
the
United
Center
in
Chicago
for
a
preview
listening
experience
for
their
album,
Vultures
Volume
1.
One
of
the
songs
from
the
anticipated
release,
“Carnival,”
featured
what
potentially
could
be
one
of
the
rapper’s
most
eyebrow-raising
verses
ever.
“This
that
Game
of
Thrones,
Yeezy
not
the
clones,”
Ye
raps.
“Elon,
where
my
rocket
ship,
it’s
time
to
go
home/They
served
us
the
corn
since
the
day
we
was
born/Anybody
pissed
off,
gotta
make
them
drink
the
urine/Now,
I’m
Ye
Kelly,
b—h/Now
I’m
Bill
Cosby,
b—h/Now
I’m
Puff
Daddy
rich.”
His
verse
on
the
song
(which
features
Playboy
Carti
and
Rich
the
Kid)
continued:
“That’s
‘Me
Too’
me
rich/First
she
say
she
suck
my
d—k/Then,
she
say
she
ain’t
suck
my
d—k/She
’gon
take
it
up
the
a—
like
a
ventriloquist/I
mean,
since
Taylor
Swift,
since
I
had
the
Rollie
on
the
wrist/I’m
the
new
Jesus,
b—h,
I
turn
water
into
Cris’/This
for
what
they
did
to
Chris/They
can’t
do
s—t
with
this,”
Ye
raps.
Ye
performed
this
track
and
others
dressed
up
in
what’s
now
his
customary
all-black
attire,
wearing
a
white
hockey
mask
similar
to
the
one
worn
by
Friday
the
13th
villain
Jason
Voorhees.
It
fit
the
scene
as
fans
had
entered
the
United
Center
while
smoke
machines
began
to
emanate
fog.
The
show
also
featured
surprise
appearances
by
his
daughter,
North
West,
and
Bump
J
along
with
YG.
The
listening
event
comes
after
Kanye
West
stated
in
an
Instagram
video
that
he
was
having
trouble
booking
venues,
alluding
to
his
past
controversial
behavior
and
antisemitism.
The
album
also
has
not
dropped
as
expected.
However,
Ye
is
now
set
to
hold
another
listening
event,
this
time
at
the
UBS
Arena
in
Elmont,
New
York,
Friday
(Feb.
9).
The
venue
announced
a
ticket
pre-sale
on
the
night
of
the
United
Center
show
with
tickets
beginning
at
$182
per
seat.
The
album,
which
was
expected
to
have
been
released
at
midnight
on
Friday,
has
not
yet
materialized.
