It was always going to happen, wasn't it?
2018 was a strange year for Kanye West.
He dropped a series of mini-albums with various artists, and of varying quality.
But the likes of
Ye and
Kids See Ghosts was greatly overshadowed by Kanye's political outbursts. He wore his MAGA hat. He
hung out with Donald Trump. He professed his love for the likes of Jordan Peterson and Candace Owens.
And most controversially, he would even claim in a TMZ interview that
slavery was "a choice".
In October, he would then tweet that he was
"distancing" himself from politics, after a dispute with Candace Owens over her 'Blexit' shirts.
Since then, he has been quieter. But we have a feeling that is about to change.
2019 is about to hit us in the face like a wet wish, because Kanye has just announced that he is going to be on
The Joe Rogan Experience podcast.

Oh dear god. What on Earth is Kanye going to come out with on the show?
There's been no confirmation from Rogan when the episode might come out, but we nervously await it dropping. Kanye interviews are often painful and infuriating, but they are never boring. And
The Joe Rogan Experience is the sort of show that will definitely bring the best/worst out of him.
