The second part of Kanye West's appearance on Drink Champs hit podcast feeds on Thursday with the rapper adding to the list of red-button issues he discussed with hosts N.O.R.E.

and DJ EFN when the first half of his conversation was published last week. Among the subjects that came up during part two were Taylor Swift, Larry Hoover, A$AP Rocky's prison stint, Trump, and the fall-out from Dave Chappelle's latest Netflix special.

On the subject of Chappelle, West maintained his stance of defending those he deems to have been "canceled" by the media and members of the public.

Chappelle came under considered criticism for continuing to joke about trans people in The Closer. The issue was internal, as well as external, with a staff walk-out led.
