Kanye West has sparked controversy again by claiming that George Floyd died from fentanyl and that a police officer’s knee “wasn’t even on his neck like that.” George Floyd, a Black man, was killed in an altercation with police in Minneapolis in May 2020, with a video showing Officer Derek Chauvin with his knee on his neck for almost nine minutes. In a recent appearance on the hip-hop podcast Drink Champs, the rapper and fashion designer questioned the cause of Floyd's death, which has black twitter on fire with outrage. Floyd's family is considering suing Ye for making false claims but in the meantime-- Kanye has his eyes set on ramping up his influence to an even larger scale and is now negotiating a deal to buy the MAGA conservative Social Media app, Parlor.
