Damon Dash Denies Kanye West Is ‘Crazy’

Kanye West pal Damon Dash, who is currently with the rapper at his Wyoming ranch, denies that Kanye is “crazy” — and he doesn’t “give a f–k” if West’s wife, Kim Kardashian, and her family disagree.

Dash said, “People think he lost his mind just because he cried. The way he lost his mind and jumped on a jet and then jumped off the jet to come back to his 40,000-acre ranch? Yeah, I’d like to lose my mind like that.”

He added, “There’s definitely people around him that love him and he’s going to be all right. We are praying, we are working. People think like we are in an insane asylum [but] we got an album coming out.”

West raised fears for his health Sunday at a campaign rally for his presidential bid in South Carolina, where he appeared onstage wearing a bulletproof vest, attacked Harriet Tubman and wept as he claimed that he and Kim nearly aborted her first pregnancy.

He also sent a series of unsettling tweets, including one that claimed Kardashian and her mother, Kris Jenner, tried to get him “locked up.” Kim then asked for “compassion” as Kanye battles his “painful” bipolar disorder.

But when we asked Dash about the Kardashian family’s concerns for West, he said, “I don’t give a f–k about none of that. I see him — he’s cool. I don’t give a f–k what they say. He’s a little tired but he’s happy.”

He also said that West’s “productive” and “having fun.” “Why are you talking about [his mental health]? He’s in a big room with 40 different companies. Ideas development. It’s a laboratory going on over here. Just think of Willy Wonka.”

Dash added, “People watched the rally and think he’s crazy, but that’s how the average person thinks. Everyone that listens to him [who thinks] he’s crazy is not a billionaire. But some reason Elon Musk doesn’t think he’s crazy. I don’t think he’s crazy. Billionaires don’t think it’s crazy because he talks that billi talk. And most people don’t talk that talk. He speaks like the general to people that are generally soldiers.”
