Kanye West Wears MAGA Hat and Reps Colin Kaepernick in New video

by Daryl Nelson

There's a video floating around that shows Kanye West sporting a MAGA hat and a shirt that says "Colin Kaepernick."

“But it’s my hat, I redesigned it. I changed the brim, I mean I changed the shape right here and I put positive energy into the hat.” @kanyewest at the @thefader offices this morning.

“The elephant in the room is I wear my hat, right?” said Ye in the clip. “But it’s my hat. I redesigned it. I changed the brim and changed the shape right here, and I put positive energy into that hat.”

The first time Ye caused a ruckus by wearing the"Make America Great Again" hat was back in April, in a photo with music executives Lyor Cohen and Lucian Grainge. That was right before he went on TMZ and infamously said slavery was a choice.

It also isn't the first time the Chicago producer showed support for Kaepernick. Earlier this month, he gave props to Nike for airing that much talked about commercial that stars the former San Francisco 49er.

Of course, there's a chance that Kanye could be trolling by sporting the hat and shirt since his new Yandhi album drops on Sept. 29. 

That also could be why he recently slammed Nick Cannon, Drake and Tyson Beckford for talking about Kim Kardashian, and why he sent a tweet about not defending ASAP Bari and XXXTentacion when they had legal problems. 

What do you think about Ye wearing the MAGA hat and Kaepernick shirt at the same time?
