Kanye West opened up about his addiction to pornography in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music’s Beats 1 Radio.
West said he became addicted from a young age, according to XXL Magazine.
- “Like for me Playboy was my gateway into full-on pornography addiction,” he explained. “My dad had a Playboy left out at age five and it’s affected almost every choice I made for the rest of my life. From age five till now having to kick the habit. And it just presents itself in the open like it’s okay and I stand up and say, ‘No it’s not okay.”
West said sex trafficking can happen in multiple ways.
- “Yeah, when you see all of the billboards, the traffic billboards. When I say ‘traffic’ I’m talking about the billboards are actually sex trafficking,” Kanye said. “On one side of the street it’s a billboard with spirits, which is alcohol, and on the other side it’s ‘call this number’ or it’s a picture of a woman on a billboard and says ‘come to this strip club.’ So there are all different layers of trafficking.”
West told Lowe that he asked his collaborators for the new “Jesus Is King” album not to have premarital sex, according to Uproxx.com.
