Kanye West confirms his conversion to Christianity

While it has been speculated for quite some time, Kanye West confirmed on Saturday night that he has converted to Christianity.

The 42 year old rapper was in Washington D.C. over the weekend, where he put in a surprise appearance at Howard University and held a listening party of his new album, Jesus Is King.

During the listening party, West confirmed that he is officially a Christian, though it’s no surprise, considering his weekly Sunday Service tradition and the name of his new album itself.

The video begins with West discussing a line in a Jay-Z song, where he said, ‘forced into sports or entertainment.’

‘I want to let you know that I am not here for your entertainment this afternoon. We are here to spread the gospel,’ West began.

He later added, ‘Excuse me if I mispronounce anything. I am a recent convert. It means I recently got saved within this year.’

West has been holding his Sunday Service worship services since the beginning of this year, though he hasn’t confirmed his conversion until now.

The video from this Washington D.C. listening party also featured a section with a saxophone solo, which sounds very much like Kenny G.

He has been rumored to be featured on the album, and who West hired to play at his home for his wife Kim Kardashian on Valentine’s Day.
