Controversial American rapper Kanye West, appears to open the idea of bringing a colleague and friend on the run as it show that the rapper is still determined to run for the next president of the United States of America (USA).


However, the Yeezy brand owner claimed that he recently reached out to fellow rapper and business mogul, Jay Z, to join him on the US presidential race.

Kanye made this known on a radio station.

He also went further to say he have asked Jay Z to join his presidential ticket and run as his vice-president.

West said he had considered his friend Jay Z, Jade Simmons and Micheal Tidball who is a Christian pastor from Wyoming to become his second-in-command.

He was quoted to have said: “We have Michelle Tidball, who is a Christian pastor out of Wyoming, who is my running mate. But she would be open to taking another position if we found another running mate,”.

Sharing more information about why Jay Z crossed his mind as a running mate, West who described his friend as his ‘favourite candidate’ said he was inspired to make the decision after he realized that the initials of Jay Z’s real name, Sean Carter, were the same as South Carolina, where he held his first rally.

However, we are yet to know if Jay Z agreed to his request to join him in running the USA.
