Kanye West says Beyonce needs to ‘let Jay Z cheat’ in bizarre interview

Kanye West is no stranger to controversial statements but a strange interview has surfaced in which he claims Beyonce should let Jay Z cheat.

The controversial rapper has been called out for increasingly erratic behaviour in recent years, including his wife Bianca Censori’s parade of nearly naked outfits.

In a newly-released clip from an interview with Candace Owens in 2022, Kanye – who now goes by Ye – boldly states Jay Z, 54, should sleep with other women.

‘Beyonce needs to let him go get some p****y,’ the 47-year-old declared when discussing how the 24-time Grammy winner stays relevant.

Candace, 35, looked shocked before bursting into uncomfortable laughter as she repeated ‘what?’

Ye grinned as he added: ‘Go to the DR or something like that, you know what I mean?’

At one time, Ye and Jay Z were friends and had collaborated on an entire album together, such as 2011’s Watch the Throne and hit song Run This Town.

Famously, Ye was such close friends with Jay Z and his wife Beyonce, 42, that he interrupted Taylor Swift’s VMAs win to declare the Drunk in Love hitmaker should have won.

This sparked a longstanding feud with the Eras Tour star, which Beyonce has steered clear of commenting on given her friendship with Taylor, 34.

Jay Z also worked on Ye’s 2021 album Donda, after appearing to have fallen out amid rumoured drama with Kim Kardashian, 43, and Beyonce.

Candace did ask if the Power rapper was still close to the Empire State of Mind icon but the video cuts before his answer.

The clip comes as part of a mass release of the ‘forbidden’ interview, which Candace, who is a political commentator, decided to share.

‘Back in October of 2022, Ye and I put on White Lives Matter shirt,’ she wrote on X. ‘Shortly thereafter he was cancelled and banned everywhere for antisemitism.

‘In the midst of the scandal, I set up a camera in my house and recorded this conversation with him. Enjoy.’

In a further tweet, she added: ‘What’s fascinating about this time capsule with Ye is to consider everything the media was telling you about him while this was going on.

We were told he was too crazy to be heard. Now you get to decide if that’s true.’

At the time the podcast was recorded, Ye had shared an antisemitic tweet and been dropped from numerous collaborations.

‘I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE,’ the shocking message read.

He added: ‘The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti-Semitic because black people are actually Jew also. You guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.’

Ye confessed to Candace this was sent out while drunk on Hennessy whiskey and said: ‘It turns us grey. The demons [come out].’
