Kanye West has revealed that American rapper, Dave Blunts is his favorite rapper right now.
In yet another controversial posting spree on social media over the weekend, the rap legend named Dave Blunts as his favorite artist in Hip Hop right now — although given his propensity for trolling, it’s possible he was not being entirely truthful.
According to him, Dave Blunts raps give him the energy of my tweets, Kanye West wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Ye also showed love to Playboi Carti, adding: “Carti my favorite musician.”
In a follow-up post, the G.O.O.D. Music founder shared a screenshot of a text message with Blunts, who is dangerously overweight, in which he offered to help him improve his health.
“Bout to listen. Do you mind if I connect you and my trainer. We need you to stay alive,” West wrote to the up-and-coming rapper.
Blunts replied: “Let’s do it. Thank you Ye.”
The up-and-coming rapper also reacted to the praise on social media, sharing a snippet of an unreleased song on which he raps: “Ye said I’m the chosen one / Ye told me to talk to his personal trainer ’cause he wanna see me alive.”
Blunts also shared another screenshot from their text exchange which shows Ye telling him: “You my favorite rapper and writer. You free.”
