Kanye West has an unpopular opinion on America’s dad turned “America’s rapist.”
The vocal rapper took to Twitter Tuesday evening to declare Bill
Cosby’s innocence, despite the disgraced comedian admitting under oath
to using Quaaludes to drug women for sex.
“BILL COSBY INNOCENT!” tweeted the “Golddigger” rapper.
Within an hour, the rapper and his tweet were trending topics on Twitter.
It also ignited the "KanyeIsCancelledParty" tweeting frenzy, with the internet going on a meme spree against the rapper.
It’s unclear if West’s account was hacked but his support for Cosby
quickly erupted across social media, with fans blasting the 38-year-old
singer, who is also known as Kim Kardashian’s beau.
Among them was comedienne Sarah Silverman, who couldn’t believe his message supporting the former JELL-O pitchman.
“Kanye!!” she tweeted. "You can’t be for real. FIFTY WOMEN. With
nothing to gain thanks to a statute of limitations ON RAPE. Oy.”
Cosby stands accused of drugging and sexually abusing dozens of women during his long and successful show business career.
The 78-year-old faces only one possible criminal charges amid all the accusations. This week, a judge tossed a deal that would have allowed Cosby to avoid prosecution.

West’s three words in defense of Cosby are surprising as the rapper dissed the actor in his recent track, “Facts.”
“Do anybody feel bad for Bill Cosby? Did he forget names just like Steve Harvey?” he rapped.
West now joins celebrities like R&B crooner R Kelly who recently expressed sympathy for Cosby.
"Al I can say is that it was a long time ago ... When I look on TV and I
see the 70-, 80-, 90-year-old ladies talking about what happened when
they were 17, 18, or 19, there's something strange about it. That's my
opinion," the singer said about the fallen funnyman.
The rapper continued to shock the Twitter world, writing more nonsense throughout the night.
He shared a meme of the Puma logo with the words "Kylie was here"
written across, alongside the infamous emoji of Kim Kardashian crying.

The picture was a futher jab at reports that the shoe line had tried to sway Jenner for an endorsement deal —a
proposition which didn't sit well with West, who designed a line of
sneakers for Adidas. Earlier in the day, West accused the company of
trying to go against his family in a Twitter rant.
West also shared a screenshot of a text he wrote, asking someone to
invite Hulk Hogan and every "awesome" wrestler to an unknown event.
He even decides to invite Michael Jordan —
with whom he apologized to hours earlier, stressing Jordan wasn't the
focus of his tweets or the lyrics on "Facts," which dissed the Jordan
line.

However, the Chicago bulls legend declined the invite.
West’s new album, which has changed names almost as many times as its
release date has been pushed back, is now due out Thursday.
