Kanye West: Singer Halsey Defends Rapper, Chides Critics Of His Erratic Behavior
Following the mockery and criticisms that have trailed rapperKanye West’s recent outbursts, American singerHalsey has slammed those making jest of his bipolar struggles.
Among other things, Kanye had wrapped a wild night on Twitter on July 21, 2020, with the official announcement of his latest album,Donda, coming on Friday, July 24, 2020.
He had shared the news with a tracklist, writing: “Ima focus on the music now.”
But there had been no focus shown when Kanye had made allegations about his wife,Kim Kardashian, trying to bring a doctor to Wyoming to have him committed, comparing himself to the protagonist in the movieGet Out.
Now, singerHalsey, who is known for her own struggles with bipolar episodes, went on Twitter to try to convince people to take what Kanye is going through seriously.
She wrote:
Personal opinions about someone aside, a manic episode isn't a joke. If you can’t offer understanding or sympathy, offer your silence.Taking this opportunity to make offensive remarks and vilify people with mental illnesses is really not the way to go. This is the exact triggering sh!t that causes people to keep quiet about it."
