Kanye West has been a busy man since he was released from hospital earlier this month. Not only has he been in the studio with Pete Rock, but today, he paid a visit to Trump Tower to meet with President-elect, Donald Trump.
A couple of videos have surfaced; one of Kanye West entering the building, and another of him standing next to Trump in front of the press. “We’ve been friends for a long time,” Trump said to journalists. In response to what they talked about, he said “We discussed life.” Kanye, on the other hand, didn’t have much to say. “I just wanna take a picture right now,” he said.
Before they parted ways, Trump said to Kanye: “You take care of yourself, I’ll see you soon.”

I wanted to meet with Trump today to discuss multicultural issues.

These issues included bullying, supporting teachers, modernizing curriculums, and violence in Chicago.

I feel it is important to have a direct line of communication with our future President if we truly want change.
