Kanye West has gone on another Twitter rampage today this time taking shots at Puma for attempting to strike up a deal with his Sister-in-law Kylie Jenner, congratulating Nike on a new shoe and declaring Bill Cosby innocent. Yeah.
“BILL COSBY INNOCENT !!!!!!!!!!” Yeezy tweeted, completely out of the blue, in reference to ongoing sexual assault allegations made against the comedian. That was all he had to say on the matter, however, moving onto other things like shoes and his album, like he hadn’t just dropped a bomb on the Twitterverse.
Seemingly everybody on the social media platform apart from West let out a collective, “WTF”, and from there the gifs, memes and witty remarks have rolled in.
There are those that are angry and disappointed at what he’s said…

Then people are using Kanye himself to show their disbelief in his proclamation…

His wife Kim Kardashian has also weighed in, whether she knows it or not…

Interestingly these Twitter bursts have been conveniently placed around the release of his forthcoming album which is set to drop tomorrow 11th February. Maybe it’s a case of all publicity is good publicity.

He’s already had three album titles So Help Me God, Swish and Waves but he’s decided to change it once more without telling people exactly what he’s changed it to. One Twitter user thought that “BILL COSBY INNOCENT !!!!!!!!!!” may just be the title of the album.

It’s unlikely though because he tweeted yesterday that the acronym for the album title was TLOP which also gave Twitter plenty of steam.
The final conclusion that Twitter had as to why he randomly decided to tweet this was that Bill Cosby himself had something to do with it.

With less than 24 hours left until the album is meant to drop, we’d be keeping our eyes pretty firmly on Yeezy’s Twitter as it just gets more and more entertaining ridiculous.
