Kanye West is doing well as he enjoys married life, Ice Cube has revealed. The Gold Digger rapper has been spotted on several outings with new wife Bianca Censori recently – including in Japan – and his fellow musician has said the star is in a “good space”.
It comes after Ye was heavily criticized for several outbursts, including several vile antisemitic statements and erratic tweets, which led to ex-wife Kim Kardashian breaking down in tears on an episode of The Kardashians.
But speaking of his current space, Ice Cube told Piers Morgan he is “hopeful” Ye will “come out the other side”. The former Good Morning Britain presenter opened up on his experience interviewing Ye and questioned rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube’s relationship with him.
Piers said on his TalkTV show: “The last rapper that I interviewed in this very studio was Ye, Kanye West. You’ve had a wobbly relationship with him, you’re back on track. In fact, you saw him a few days ago…”
Ice Cube replied: “Yeah a couple of weeks ago. I mean we were always cool. He just… he spoke my name without really explaining what he meant and I really couldn’t leave that statement out there without… he never explained what he meant and so I had to kind of rebut that but since then we’ve talked, and I think Ye understands that generalizing will always get you in more hot water than being very specific…
“I believe he’s doing great. He’s still dealing with some people trying to hold on to his money, but for the most part, I believe he’s in a good space. I think he’s learned a lot from this past year and hopefully, he’ll come out better on the other side.”
When Piers went on to ask how the star felt about some of Ye’s most outrageous outbursts, Ice Cube replied: “I felt that if he was really upset with specific people, that the message he was saying would hijack what he was upset about and that’s kind of what happened. You can’t just generalize, you have to be specific. Especially if you’re talking about anybody, any race of people, you have to be specific on who exactly you’re talking about.”
