The artist in a statement said:
โWe have built Kanye West into some kind of god-like idol, I believe heโs a genius when it comes to writing and producing but heโs human. When we build people into idols we have expectations, and if they fail to meet those expectations we crucify them.โ
โWe saw this last year when Kanye was admitted to a medical facility to get treatment for stress, anxiety and paranoia. We need to take a step back and remember our idols are only human and as such we need to give them space to err.โ
