Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West is showing no chill to the controversy his new “Famous” music video has sparked and has moved forward with its full-blown promotion.
Last night (June 27), Yeezy announced multiple locations and a TV premiere for “Famous” on social media.

This week, R&B singer Ray J‘s manager Wack 100 gave his opinion on the “Famous” visual in light of his client’s image being featured in it.
“Did they show him with a d*ck in his wife’s mouth? Tell them Wack 100 said that. If they didn’t show Ray J with his d*ck in Kim Kardashian’s mouth, then tell Kanye to go back and reshoot that sh*t,” Wack said in an interview. “Tell that n*gga he’s a long way from Chicago, he’d better watch his motherf*cking mouth.” (TMZ)
Last weekend, R&B singer Erkyah Badu co-signed Ye’s graphic visual.

Former president George W. Bush has already reacted to seeing his image used in Ye’s video.
George W. Bush isn’t upset about Kanye trying to find a look-alike to portray him in his new music video, but he’s somewhat indignant the faux Bush lacks muscle. In case there was any question, a rep for the 43rd Prez tells TMZ, “In case there was any doubt … that is not President Bush.” The rep added it should be obvious the guy in the “Famous” video is a fake Bush, adding, “He [W] is in much better shape.” (TMZ)
