Ye shocked his followers yesterday (April 21) after his confession about having incestuous interactions with his younger male cousin while promoting a new song. Fans and colleagues have weighed in, and Boosie Badazz says he “feels bad” for everything the artist formerly known as Kanye West went through.
“DAM KANYE. I FEEL BAD FOR THIS DUDE,” the “Wipe Me Down” rapper typed on X. “THIS DUDE BEEN THREW SOME SH*T BRA.”
He then theorized that the series of problematic actions and statements Ye has made in recent years all link back to the trauma he endured throughout his life. “THE RANTS MAKE SINCE NOW. THIS MAN WAS SUCKING D*CK AS A CHILD. SMH HIS MIND IS F**KED UP. I HATE HIM HAVING TO GO THROUGH THIS AS A CHILD. THIS MAN COMING FOR ANY N EVERYONE WITH A RAPTURE. WHOEVER WRONGED HIM N THEY IN TROUBLE #deudaintholdingback,” Boosie concluded.

Although some users shared the Louisiana rapper’s empathy for West, several top replies shifted the focus on the younger cousin, with one person writing, “The lil cousin the one you should feel bad for…” Another person wrote, “Keep porn away from your children. It all happened bc he found his mom’s gay magazines.”
West shared the backstory of a new snippet he released named “Cousins,” which is about the alleged incestuous relationship he had with his male cousin up until he was 14 years old.
He began by telling his followers his cousin is currently behind bars for murder and that they used to look at print media together that was not age appropriate at the time. “This song is called COUSINS about my cousin that’s locked in jail for life for killing a pregnant lady a few years after I told him we wouldn’t ‘look at dirty magazines together’ anymore,” he typed. He ended the post by writing a straightforward statement: “My name is Ye and I sucked my cousins d*ck till I was 14.”
On the track itself, the Chicago rapper’s lyrics reflect the story and vowed to never tell anyone what happened: “People tell me take it to my grave/ ‘Truth will set you free someday’/ I don’t think they understand that I’m not attracted to a man.” Listen to the snippet here.
