We stopped trying to figure out what Kanye West is thinking a long time ago. Between his support for Trump, tweeting “Bill Cosby is innocent!”, and trying to run for president in 2020, it’s a lot to keep up with when there are more important things to focus on.
But his latest tweet is sure to be a talking point.
In an apparent statement on Black underrepresentation in the music industry, West shared a video of what appears to be him urinating on one of his own Grammy Awards. For the record, he’s won 21 of them.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Trust me … I WON’T STOP,” wrote West to accompany the clip.

“Lived long enough to see Kanye West pee on his GRAMMYs,” wrote one commenter. “What a time to be alive.”
This comes on the heels of West sharing pages from his Universal Label Contract while demanding to be released from the deal, calling the music industry “modern day slavery.”
Variety reports:
West tweeted, “Here are my ten Universal contracts … I need every lawyer in the world to look at these,” and after posting illegible images of contracts, then began tweeting out the pages, two at a time. “This is what me Kanye West deal looks like today,” he wrote. “I PRAY IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT IT DONT LOOK LIKE THIS TOMORROW.”
However, it is unclear what his objective is in posting the contracts, which are written in the densely-worded legalese common to all such agreements and show that his deal has been renegotiated multiple times, with West represented by some of the top attorneys in the music industry.

The orange idiot and Kanye should start a reality show about who is more mentally unstable. And stay out of politics.
bluebarbear
Oh please keep him off of TV both of them once he’s out of office I never want to hear or see the name or picture of Trump or Kanye West ever
fur_hunter
AND……….THIS IMBECILE is running for president. Unbelievable. What’s sad and even WORSE is there are IDIOTS who will vote for him, just like the Dumb A SSes who will vote for the Orange MORON.
Trekbike
They already voted for the idiot, moron, and imbecile. He’s called Trump. In all my 60 years of life did I think I’d witness such a shit show of pure stupidity. I’m sure there’s not a more stupid man on earth than Trump. Kanye definitely comes in second.

“DISGUSTING” is the only word that comes to mind. Is this what we want for the leader of the free world? Just goes to show how low the culture of the US has dipped.

As someone who’s been manic and psychotic, I can tell you it’s really not funny. It’s horrifying to be psychotic. I don’t know if Kanye is too far gone at the moment to comply with meds, or if his treatment regimen isn’t working. I had a 3 and 1/2 years long episode. The carnage you see when you recover. All the delusions that must be accepted as untrue. To learn that all the reality you experienced wasn’t real, that’s one really difficult journey. I had mine on social media too. People are very cruel. We need more mental health funding. All we get is lip service.
Doug
I totally agree with you, having been a psych. nurse for 32 years. The real culprit here is the media who continue to post stuff like this; they’re exploiting his illness. But I have to say that KW reminds me of someone who doesn’t take his illness very seriously. There’s a pattern of time where he’ll be stable for awhile and then these incidents start happening again. I have no way of knowing for sure, of course, but he strikes me as someone who stays on his medications for awhile and then comes off of them.
Kangol2
He’s a walking tragedy. He should stay on his meds, and focus on designing clothes and his Sunday Services.
dougie
One would think that his business manager, family members, or other responsible adult would, out of compassion, insist on his staying on his meds or help steer his embarrassing behaviors. But the truth is that they’re all making a shitload of money off of his craziness.
John
Unbelievable. This is a person running for President and will actually get votes. I am sorry he has mental illness but not sorry that I think he has nothing but a bunch of enablers around him. Seek treatment, stay on your meds and wake the hell up dude. YOU ARE NOT PRESIDENTIAL material. For that matter neither is who is currently in office.
IanHunter
He’s bat crap crazy. He needs mental health help.
mz.sam
Lock him up!
ShiningSex
He’s a closeted crazy queen. anyone who likes him needs taste
LukeHeavens
He is so classy.
bachy
Patience and understanding are not what is called for now. I was willing to humor the phenomenon of Kim & Kanye until he launched his preposterous run for the presidency. Suddenly the couple seems both dangerous and insane, a gravely corrosive influence on what’s left of American society. Kanye will only serve to reduce votes that should be going to Joe Biden and as such he is supporting the GOP agenda. This couple is a sh|tshow that needs to be shut down yesterday.
shanfrina
… Pathetic POS!?!
dannysax
Last I heard, he was no longer running for President. Even so, I don’t think he would have taken away Biden votes, he’s such a Trumpite. I wish there was a place or an island we could send all these hateful souls so they could hate each other and not good people. And keep them off public media; they would have their own little world and we would never have to see or hear from them again. If only…
LukeHeavens
We’ll never know if he would’ve gotten the Herman Cain vote. So kinda sad.
innocentgay
He’s on my ballot, and so can still get votes. Incumbant Pennywise, Joe Biden, Brock Pierce, Jade Simmons, Kanye West, and Jo Jorgenson are the options here.
Bashir
omg, is this newsworhy for the gay community because it involves a penis?
Michael1500
Is he actually psychotic, or just reacting to whatever substance he’s abusing? Even if he professes to be psychotic and on medication, how do we know that to be true, with all the drama he’s always conjuring up? If he really is chemically psychotic, then he really needs help. If he’s just a spoiled substance abuser who can’t handle the substance, then that’s another matter. It’s a fact that he launches into orbit for SOME reason.
amanwithanedge
nobody wants to see his mr. tiny. we’ve all seen what he has to offer and it’s laughable.
PoetDaddy
The only thing I want to read about Kanye West is his obituary.
mz.sam
No shit, Sherlock.
Wheelerman
This is news on a gay site? Why? He has 21 Grammys, and I couldn’t tell you one song he sings. I’m not part of his demographic.
Mack
They must have been pretty hard up to give him that many.
ARTmark
Another disgusting lunatic with eyes on The White House….WTF has happened to our country??!!!
justgeo
And this is another rag enabling the fool. Just type would have been plenty. Now flush.
odowd4sure
Just the idea that this is the most newsworthy article that Queerty can post is utterly ridiculous! Goodbye!
wooly101
And you guys wonder why the states is perceived the way it is by the rest of the world.
nitejonboy
A. The Grammy committee needs to vote to take away all of his awards since he no longer appreciates them, and B. Forget Britney Spears, her family needs to get their lawyers to get Kanye committed before he finally snaps and kills his whole family, you can laugh all you want, but the man is seriously mentally ill and is dangerous, and that isn’t funny. I worry for Kim and North’s safety, and I don’t even like them.
xanadude
Nobody, especially Kanye, is hydrated enough to pee that clear on command. LOL
Toofie
He really needs help.
Dwight
That Grammy obviously won’t flush down the toilet so I feel sorry for the person he made fish it out of the toilet.
hotshot70
I always thought he was piss-poor!
Prax07
He’s a walking dumpster fire that needs to be medicated, not spewing his nonsense all over the internet. Stop giving him press and maybe he’ll go away.
bvick1636
Kanye West is so YESTERDAY who cares? Even if he had slipped up and shown HIS PENIS in the video of him PEEING on one of his GRAMMYS, no one would have cared! He has repeatedly shown he is mentally ill & someone needs to have him committed before he harms himself. Every GRAMMY STATUE he defiles in this manner or DOES NOT WANT, should be taken back and a NEW ONE issued to whomever the 2nd place person or group was that I’m sure WILL APPRECIATE IT!
HankHarris
As much as I loath him and that entire K family, this is not funny and I wish someone would help him.
LumpyPillows
He’s mentally ill. He’s the poster boy for entitlement. He’s completely overrated. I’m sure he is insufferable to be around. I guess you can tell, I don’t care for him or his stupid, goofy name and those he forced on his offspring.
TabooSonDad
As long as he was peeing, I wish he had also shown us what he was peeing with. I think he’s an overrated, no talent, self-absorbed bore, but I wouldn’t mind laying back and spreading my legs for him at least once.
