Kanye West has released a new song where he admits to molesting his male cousin when they were children.
Released on Monday (April 21), “COUSIN” finds Ye talking about finding apparently gay magazines in his mom’s closet and reenacting what he saw with his younger cousin.
In a post to X, he explained: “This song is called COUSIN about my cousin that’s locked in jail for life for killing a pregnant lady a few years after I told him we wouldn’t ‘look at dirty magazines together’ anymore. Perhaps in my self centered mess I felt it was my fault that I showed him those dirty magazines when he was 6 and then we acted out what we saw.”
He continued: “My dad had playboy magazines but the magazines I found in the top of my moms closet were different. My name is Ye and I sucked my cousins dick till I was 14. Tweet sent.”
In a second tweet, he declared: “I changed my album name to CUCK.”
A cuck – short for cuckhold – is used to describe a man who allows other men to have sex with his partner as he watches, so take that as you wish…
The day prior, Kanye West revealed on X that he and JAY-Z butted heads over Hov’s verse on the Donda track — specifically Jay’s critique of his support for Donald Trump.
“Hol’ up, Donda, I’m with your baby when I touch back road / Told him, ‘Stop all of that red cap, we goin’ home,’” Hov rapped on the song, referencing Ye’s penchant for wearing a red Make American Great Again hat at the time.
Revisiting the friction surrounding the collaboration, Kanye tweeted: “Why did Jay Z have to say ‘no red hat’ on ‘Jail.’ That shit tore me to my soul. We fought about it and he told me either leave that line on there or take my verse off.”
The Chicago native then suggested that JAY-Z’s lyrics were part of a larger conspiracy against him, asking his followers: “Me wearing the red hat was the most stand out example of me going against ‘the program.’ Do you guys think he was instructed to say that?”
Suki Waterhouse has spoken candidly about how she found herself crying constantly after the birth of her daughter.
The singer and actress reflected on her experience as a mother more than two years after she and her partner, actor Robert Pattinson, welcomed their baby girl in March 2024.
During an interview with The Standard published on Thursday, Suki explained that motherhood has completely shifted her outlook on life.
"I think it's made me marvel at our humanness. It's so funny, even just your kid getting a fever, watching a little body recover from that, it's brought me down to what it is to be alive and I really love that," she said. "It feels very survivalist and medieval in a way, especially birth, birth is medieval."
The Daisy Jones & The Six actress, 34, shared that she was caught off guard by just how exposed and emotional she felt after giving birth to her daughter.
"I'm almost two and a half years in now, but when she was first born, I remember thinking that I can't believe everybody does this and I can't believe how vulnerable I feel," she told the publication. "I was crying all the time."
Suki continued, "It makes me cry now thinking about it. It was just... shocking."
The Notting Hill singer also admitted that she has never considered herself someone who cries easily, making those emotions all the more surprising.
"It's so f**king weird! I'm not a cryer! I'm so not an emotional person, I'm such a Capricorn. But being a mum just fed me up in such a sweet way," she stated. "It just absolutely broke open my heart, and I'm just madly in love and, despite my crying right now, I enjoy it so much and I'm so taken by my daughter and so in love with doing it with my partner and I just feel the preciousness of it very much."
Suki and Twilight actor Robert, 40, have been in a relationship since 2018 and announced they were expecting their first child together toward the end of 2023.
The pair have largely kept their romance away from the spotlight and have yet to publicly share the name of their daughter.
