Not only do the two both hail from Chicago, but they share a love for Donald Trump. Last month, Rodman was in attendance during Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s Singapore summit, while West sparked controversy after proclaiming his love for Trump and wearing a “Make America Great Again” cap.
Kanye, who executive produced albums from Pusha-T, Nas, Kid Cudi, Teyana Taylor, and his own ye, is now reportedly working on a 7-track joint project with Chance the Rapper. He also recently revealed his desire to record 52 albums in 52 weeks.
