After his announcement, reports are now in the air that the rapper may be going through a bipolar episode, TMZ reported.

Kanye West is standing for president and this is what Donald Trump thinks
Earlier, Kanye West had signalled that he no longer supports the US President Donald Trump and that he entered the bid to run for the election to win the race. Prior to that, Kanye West was highly supportive of the president.
In his interview with Forbes magazine, he said, “I am taking the red hat off, with this interview,” referring to Trump’s trademark red “Make America Great Again” baseball cap. “Like anything I’ve ever done in my life, I’m doing (this) to win,” he went on to add.
He told the magazine he will run under a new banner – the Birthday Party. Earlier, both West and his reality TV star wife Kim Kardashian West have visited Trump in the White House.
