Kanye West's been a busy man.
Since his controversial visit to the White House earlier this month, Kanye has embarked on a number of missions to continue to fulfill his dream of a "Free America." In a two-minute video, shared to his Twitter page, the "Love It" rapper recapped his recent and impactful trips across the globe. "Open it up and letting shit flow through as a vessel -- clean and not selfish, then we win because it's a we. I can't save the world, we can," Kanye said at the beginning of the recap video. "I don't have a more important position than anyone, because we need arms."
The video then transitions to Ye's longtime friend and Off-White designer Virgil Abloah discussing the power of fashion, as shots of him and Kanye in Chicago and Paris are shown. Ye additionally included clips from his recent trips to Uganda, Tokyo, and Detroit in the video montage.
One of the most movings moments in the video came from Chicago mayoral candidate Amara Enyia, who was shown discussing the impact and importance of drawing inspiration from indigenous cultures. As previously reported, the "Lift Yourself" rapper donated $73,540 to Enyia's campaign, which was the "exact amount in fines she faced from state election officials in connection with her brief 2015 campaign for mayor."
Towards the end of the video, Kanye is shown writing the qualities of a "Free America" on a whiteboard as his voiceover says, "We only have today. People used to say 'Rome wasn't built in a day.' Well, this will be."
