Rapper Uncle Luke claims Kanye West has to say 'stupid things' or he'll be "divorced" out of the Kardashian family
Kanye West recently received a lot of backlash with regard to his comments about slavery and his support for President Donald Trump. While it may be a side of Kanye that was not liked by many of his fans, rapper Uncle Luke (a.k.a Luther Campbell) believes that it is all due to the family that he is married into. He believes that the Kardashians do everything in order to gain attention and when it comes to Kanye, he seems to be following the footsteps of the rest of the family members. "People like Kanye West, I mean, this guy married into a family that gets on all shock baggy," he said. "They need to do something in order to keep their followers up. That whole thing that they have got going on, he married into that. So, he has to say stupid things or he will be divorced out of the family."
While Kanye insists that he is letting it all out because he wants to be honest with his fans, Luther believes that it is for shock value. "He is doing it for shock value," he said while appearing on 'Domenick Nati Show'. "I mean when a mother tells his son to go get a sex change like Bruce Jenner did. I mean, that entire family is like shock value family. They also have a reality show and in order to keep it going, they have to say stupid things."
Luther believes it is important for the Kardashian family to keep on doing what they do because that is the only talent they have. "Kanye married into an untalented family that needs shock value that needs shock value on a weekly basis. They got to keep doing stupid things," he said.
According to Luther, there are certain things that should be kept private but when it comes to the Kardashians, there is nothing secret or private about their life. "Kim got that one lady out of the jail or if she gets multiple people out of the jail, that is something private. That shouldn’t be on the tv show," he said. Luther is talking about Kim's help in getting Alice Johnson out of the prison. Alice had spent the last 20 years behind bars for a non-violent drug offense and in order to set her free, Kim even visited the White House and interacted with Trump on the same.
As per Kim's request, Trump had commuted the sentence for Alice and she even took on Twitter to express her feelings. "The phone call I just had with Alice will forever be one of my best memories. Telling her for the first time and hearing her screams while crying together is a moment I will never forget," she wrote. The paperwork for her release is currently being prepared. Kim even shared the post about her release and captioned it as "BEST NEWS EVER!!!!"
She also thanked Trump for his support. "So grateful to @realDonaldTrump, Jared Kushner & to everyone who has shown compassion & contributed countless hours to this important moment for Ms. Alice Marie Johnson. Her commutation is inspirational & gives hope to so many others who are also deserving of a second chance," she wrote. Kim further added that she plans on helping others like Alice. "I hope to continue this important work by working together with organizations who have been fighting this fight for much longer than I have and deserve the recognition," she added.
