Rap star Kanye West says in a new song that black Americans still aren’t “off the plantation” of thinking they must be Democrats.

West says, “That’s the problem with this damn nation, all blacks gotta be Democrats, man, we ain’t made it off the plantation.”

This lyric is part of an upcoming song he has with rap artist T.I. called “Ye vs. The People.”

The song appears to address critics of his recent decision to sport a “Make America Great Again” hat in a photo posted on Twitter. (RELATED: Kanye West Sports ‘Make America Great Again’ Hat In New Photo — Trump Responds)
