West: "That’s what the idea would be. And yes, I’m happy to know that the tweets make you uncomfortable."
The controversial rapper captioned the screenshot:
“YE/ JOE ROGAN COUNTDOWN TO LIVE INTERVIEW.”

Before adding:
"God is using me, and he has a calling in my life, to make the world better for all people.”
He also aired his thoughts on racism. West felt that people were viewing racial discrimination in a one-dimensional way :
"Racism doesn’t end till we get to a point where we stop having to put the word black in front of it. Because it’s like we’re putting the rim a little lower for ourselves.”
The 24-time Grammy Award winner added:
"I think very 3-dimensionally. I don’t think in the black-and-white lines I’ve been programmed to think in. And I think in full color, so when I talk I have to describe a thought in 5 ways”
