Kanye West has defended his “art” as “therapy” following a backlash over his new claymation video, in which a likeness of Pete Davidson is decapitated.
The 44-year-old rapper has faced criticism over his latest music video, “Eazy”, a violent claymation piece in which kidnaps a Pete Davidson lookalike, throws a bag over his head and ties him up, and carries the sculpture head of the ‘Saturday Night Live’ star, and so he has spoken out to defend himself. He wrote on Instagram on Sunday: “Art is therapy just like this view. art is protected as freedom of speech. art inspires and simplifies the world. Art is not a proxy for any ill or harm.
Any suggestion otherwise about my art is false and mal intended.(sic) Director James Gunn tweeted: “For the record, Pete Davidson is one of the nicest, sweetest guys I know. A truly generous, tender funny spirit, he treated everyone around him with respect.
Kim – who has North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and two-year-old Psalm – liked the filmmaker’s post and when a screenshot was shared by Instagram account Comments By Celebs, Pete’s ‘Meet Cute’ co-star Kaley Cuoco also shared her support.
