Is Kanye West Actually... #QAnon-ye West?

After about a one year hiatus, rapper Kanye West reemerged on the social media scene with a series of cryptic tweets using a style not too much different than the online phenomenon known as QAnon.

Oftentimes referred to as just Q, the anonymous poster who frequents image boards such as 4chan and 8chan claims to have access to classified and insider information involving the Trump administration as well as its opponents, both foreign and domestic (but mostly the latter).

Their messages usually consist of very short sentences. This one, which was posted yesterday, discussed Iran, North Korea, the EU and more:

As you can see, Q writes in a way that invokes critical thinking and puzzle solving.

Is any of it legitimate? That's anyone's guess, but there are whole YouTube and social media channels dedicated to deciphering each of Q's messages to determine if there's actually a hidden meaning behind them.

So, how does all of this relate to Kanye West?

Well, on April 13th, West started flooding his Twitter account with philosophical-type tweets; most being short and concise, much like QAnon.

While he hasn't explicitly focused too much on traditional politics, the topics are still somewhat similar: life, mass consciousness, censorship, awareness and more.

Here are just a few:

Can you see the similarities? Maybe, maybe not?

QAnon could be in danger if they revealed their true identity due to the attention they've garnered over the past year -- so, West would probably never admit it if he was indeed behind the (in)famous pseudonym.

But, what does Kanye West have to do with the Trump administration? Why would he have any knowledge of its inner-workings or future plans?

If you remember, after the 2016 election West visited Trump Tower in New York City to meet with then-President Elect Donald Trump:

Does West still talk to the president? According to Esquire, it appears he does -- even going to the extent where he confessed his admiration for Trump in a conversation with radio presenter Ebro Darden.

Additionally, the rapper riled up liberals after openly supporting African American conservative Candace Owens as well as 'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams:
