It appears that 50 Cent might think Kanye West reached new highs — and new lows — in his meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House on Thursday.
“Get Rich or Die Tryin’” rapper 50 Cent took to Instagram on Thursday to share his thoughts on the meeting, posting an image and a few pointed words on the get-together.
The image depicted Trump in a Superman-esque outfit, lifting West skyward in his arms. In the artwork, West is wearing a Make America Great Again cap, as he did during Thursday’s meet-up.
In the caption accompanying the image, 50 Cent channeled West, writing, “You make me feel like Superman, Obama said l was a [sic] idiot f— these n—as lm wit you Master. Let’s make America great again LOL.”
As readers might recall, then-president Obama derided West as a “jackass” in leaked video from a 2009 interview, after West interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards.
During Thursday’s meeting with Trump, “The Life of Pablo” rapper West told the president that wearing Trump’s red Make America Great Again hat made him feel like Superman.
“When I put this hat on, it made me feel like Superman,” said West. “You made a superman cape for me.”
West also touched on subjects from mental health reform, gun violence, black voters, Democrats, trade with China to his desire to repeal the 13th Amendment — which abolished slavery.
“What black and African Americans — we really get caught up in the idea of racism instead of the idea of industry,” said West. “A liberal would try to control a black people through racism because black people are proud emotional people.”
