Kanye West Cuts Concert Short After Praising Trump: 'It's A New World, Hillary Clinton'
“It’s a new world, Hillary Clinton, it’s a new world... A lot of people here feel like they lost, you know why? Because y’all been lied to. Google lied to you. Facebook lied to you. Radio lied to you."

Following last week's surprise statement that "If I were to have voted I would have voted on Trump" by Kanye West, it appears the celebrities are now turning on one another as the cognitive dissonance bomb of a Trump win ripples through their minds. Billboard reports that Kanye went on another epic (aleit incomprehensible) rant during his Saint Pablo tour stop at Sacramento, that "sometime we be playing the politics too much," before ending the show after just 3 songs.
Just like last week, Kanye offered praise to President-elect Donald Trump during a nearly 20-minute speech he made addressing real-word and awards-show politics. During his speech, West directly addressed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Beyonce.
“It’s a new world, Hillary Clinton, it’s a new world,†West said during the concert, The New York Times reported. “Feelings matter. Because guess what? Everybody in Middle America felt a way and they showed you how they felt.â€
Then as Billboard reports, West's tirade began:
West's rant began:
"A lot of people here feel like they lost... you know why... because y'all been lied to. Google lied to you. Facebook lied to you. Radio lied to you.â€
And continued by slamming some of his closest performing peers: “Beyonce, I was hurt ‘cause I heard that you said you wouldn’t perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over ‘Hotline Bling,’†West told the crowd, referencing the 2016 MTV VMAs.
“Now don’t go trying to diss Beyonce. She is great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win. F--k winning. F--k looking cool. F--k being cool.â€
Jay Z was his next target. “Jay Z, call me, bruh. You still ain’t called me. Jay Z, I know you got killers. Please don’t send them at my head. Please call me. Talk to me like a man,†West said.
“This Saint Pablo tour is the most relevant [thing] happening. If your old ass keeps following old models, you’ll be Hillary Clinton.â€
West railed on President Obama, saying he couldn't make America great again "because he couldn't be him to be who he was."
"Black men have been slaves. Obama wasn’t allowed to do this†West said, “and still win. He had to be perfect. But being perfect don’t always change†things.
Toward the end of the show, West said he wasn't going to "say things the perfect way, the right way."
“Right now, press, get ready to write your passive aggressive, LeBron James racist comments, Season 4 racist comments. Get ready to have a field day, press, get ready, get ready, because the show’s over,†the rapper said before walking off stage.
