[Watch] Kanye West & T.I. Work On “Ye Vs The People” In The Studio

Published

on

Last Friday night, Kanye West treated the world to a new song called “Ye Vs The People,” which saw him addressing many of his comments made about his love for Donald Trump last week. The song, which featured T.I, would find the two going back & forth talking about the effect Kanye’s comments had on the public, and T.I. spoke on behalf of “the people” (listen here ICYMI)

Well on Monday night, Kanye decided to come out nowhere and share some behind the scenes footage from the studio where he and T.I. discuss the issue around his Donald Trump comments. After going back & forth in a constructive manner, we get to see footage of them actually recording their respective verses, and literally making the song the day before it came out. 

“When I wear that hat. Its like a fought for equality. Now its like ‘Oh I can wear this hat too’.” Kanye says about the MAGA hat. “I really want to take that hurt off of them and let them understand that I did not wear that hat to hurt them. Half the shit Trump does I don’t agree with,” Kanye said when T.I. suggests a lot of people were hurt by his words & actions.

When touching on what he does like about Trump, Kanye said “the ability to do what know one said you could do. To do the impossible is the most inspiring thing to me.”

Check out the dope clip (below) and get a little deeper understanding of Kanye’s mindset.

OFFICIAL TRAILER RELEASED FOR “CALL ME MICKY,” EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY DOMINIQUE JACKSON

New 22-minute documentary short follows Micky Angelo Petrillo after transitioning at 59, with the acclaimed POSE star helping bring his story to the screen

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — NEW YORK: The official trailer for CALL ME MICKY, a new documentary short Executive Produced by acclaimed POSE star Dominique Jackson and directed by Andrew Rasmussen, has been released on YouTube ahead of the film’s upcoming festival run.

The 22-minute documentary follows Micky Angelo Petrillo, a larger-than-life New Jersey native who transitioned at 59 and is now discovering what comes next.

Rather than presenting transition as the conclusion of Petrillo’s story, CALL ME MICKY focuses on the life unfolding afterward — through Pride celebrations, open mics, friendships, storytelling and Petrillo’s increasingly public embrace of the man he fought decades to become.

Jackson also appears in the film, joining Petrillo for an intimate on-camera conversation about identity, visibility and what it means to finally live openly as yourself.

Internationally recognized for her commanding portrayal of Elektra on FX’s groundbreaking series POSE, Jackson is an actress, model, activist and producer who also served as an Executive Producer of the acclaimed documentary I’M YOUR VENUS, which premiered at the Tribeca Festival.

Petrillo is the author of the memoir Walking the Earth: First as a Woman, Then a Man.

While CALL ME MICKY captures one chapter of Petrillo’s much larger story, the film offers an intimate portrait of a man discovering that becoming yourself is not the ending — it may only be the beginning.

CALL ME MICKY is produced by CARDINAL, a New York City–based creative production company, and directed by CARDINAL co-founder Andrew Rasmussen.

The film begins its festival run this fall, with additional screenings and festival announcements forthcoming.
