Kanye West is no stranger to shocking fans and the general public with brazen declarations—however, he just made a bold claim about an incestuous relationship with a cousin.
On April 21, the Donda rapper took to X with his new upcoming track “Cousins” and a personal message.
“This song is called COUSINS about my cousin that’s locked in jail for life for killing a pregnant lady a few years after I told him we wouldn’t ‘look at dirty magazines together’ anymore,” the 47-year-old revealed.
After detailing their age ranges at the time without naming the relative, West ended his update with a blunt claim.
“My name is Ye and I sucked my cousins d–k till I was 14,” he concluded.
In the comments, X users expressed serious concern for West, especially regarding the ages of the alleged activity.
“But ye your cousin was 9 years old when you were 14,” one pointed out.
Another shared, “I’m confused, who’s the victim here? Him or his cousin? And why.”
Yet another commented, “That’s pretty disgusting. We really didn’t need to know that,” as someone else wrote, “You make it harder and harder for me to defend you everyday bro Is this a test of faith?”
Parade reached out to the rapper’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.
