It’s becoming more and more clear why Kanye West would’ve voted for Donald Trump.. They’re so very similar — the tantrums, temperament, the social media ranting — so if Kanye runs for President in 2020, it’s like 4 more years of Trump.

Last night at the Sacramento stop of his Saint Pablo tour, Kanye West went on another rant, and this time it was aimed at both Jay Z and Beyonce and ended the show after only 30 minutes — after showing up 1.5 hours late.

He also had some choice words about radio playing the same artists/ songs over and over, and gave this thoughts on President Obama’s presidency.

Details:

First, he called out radio DJs for playing the same music over and over because they were paid to do so, setting up artists like Drake and DJ Khaled for success. Then he said, “I’m on my Trump shit tonight,” and shouted “Fuck you” to MTV and radio, before adding, “Khaled, I love you, I know you’ve got killers in Miami, please do not send them at my head. I just want to have a conversation about how we’re playing radio’s game.”

“Obama couldn’t make America great,” he continued. “Because he couldn’t be him to be who he was. Black men have been slaves. Obama wasn’t allowed to do this [screams] and still win. He had to be perfect. But being perfect don’t always change shit, bro […] I am putting my career, my life, my public well-standing at risk when I talk to y’all like this. This is a moment in the matrix, bro.”

After explaining that he took heat for seven years for defending Beyoncé, he turned his attention to her, saying, “Beyoncé, I was hurt, because I heard that you said you wouldn’t perform unless you won video of the year over me and over Hotline Bling.” Then he added, “Now, don’t go trying to diss Beyoncé, she is great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all equal. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win. Fuck winning. Fuck looking cool. Fuck being cool. Fuck all that, bro. I’ve been sent here to give y’all my truth even at the risk of my own life. Even at the risk of my own success, my own career. I’ve been sent here to give y’all my truth.”
