Kanye West pens poem about McDonald’s
Kanye West wrote a poem about McDonald’s.
The 39-year-old rapper penned the ode to the fast-food chain for Frank Ocean’s magazine ‘Boys Don’t Cry’, which was released alongside his new album ‘Blonde’, and called it ‘The McDonald’s Man’.
Entertainment Weekly reports that the poem includes the lines: "McDonald’s man / McDonald’s man / The french fries had a plan / The french fries had a plan / The salad bar and the ketchup made a band / Cus the french fries had a plan…The cheeseburger and the shakes formed a band / To overthrow the french fries plan / I always knew them french fries was evil, man…
"I knew the Diet Coke was jealous of the fries / I knew the McNuggets was jealous of the fries / Even the McRib was jealous of the fries / I could see it through his artificial meat eyes / And he only be there some of the time / Everybody was jealous of them french fries / Except for that one special guy / That smooth apple pie."
Kanye is not the only McDonald’s fan in his family; his wife Kim Kardashian West recently wrote about the chain on her website and was rewarded with a designer purse filled with vouchers.
She wrote: "Even though I’m back on my strict Atkins diet now, of course I still have cravings! Fast food is def one of my guilty pleasures. I go very rarely, but OMG I love it so much when I decide to indulge. I haven’t gone in forever, but maybe talking about it will kill my craving LOL.
"When I go to McDonald’s, I ALWAYS have to get an order of small fries. Then I usually order chicken nuggets and dip them in honey; or I’ll get a cheeseburger and chicken nuggets and eat half of each! (sic)."
Kim shared a video on Snapchat showing her opening the gift and she revealed a letter from McDonald’s which read: "Dear Kim, we were so flattered to hear we made the list of your fast food favorites. Chicken McNuggets and honey is by far one of our best kept secrets, and a clear indication your good taste goes beyond fashion…
"This is a small token of our appreciation and to help you continue sharing the love – enclosed is a wallet for you filled with Arch cards for your parents, siblings, Kanye and of course, yourself.
"Food is what makes the world a wonderful place. Sincerely, your friends at McDonald’s."
