Kanye “Ye” West said he named his highly-anticipated studio album Bully after learning his 9-year-old son, Saint, kicked a child for being “weak”.
In a podcast chat with YouTuber Justin LaBoy, Ye said, “My son was playing with some kid, and then he kicked him. I asked my son, ‘Why did you do that?’ He said, ‘Because he weak.’”
“I was like, This man is really a bully right here,” Ye laughed.
LaBoy said, “I wonder where he get that from, which parent. Definitely a young Ye.”
Bully marks Ye’s first solo album in over three years. He spent the last several months in Japan with his wife, Bianca Censori. While there, he recorded his album in solitude.
Ye announced his album will be released on his eldest daughter North West’s 12th birthday on June 15.
Social media users were disappointed in Ye’s “weird” and “disgusting” comments.
“He’s proud to have raised a bully smh,” one person wrote. “Uhm…. okay… this is weird. I have so many thoughts,” someone else said.
“As if you’re child kicking other child who seemed ‘weak’ is something to brag on. Disgusting,” another comment read. “praising your kid for being a bully. yeah, that’s going to work out really well. Great parenting. Not,” one more user added.
In addition to Saint and North, Ye, 47, and Kim Kardashian, 44, also share a daughter named Chicago, 7, and son Psalm, 5.
