Instead of supporting the campaign that encourages African-Americans to part ways with the Democrats, many start a new one called 'Kanye Exit.'

AceShowbiz - At this point, the word "controversial" seems to be the best word to describe Kanye West. The outspoken rapper has once again landed in hot water after he designed a line of shirts supporting a campaign called "Blexit" or "Black Exit," which encourages African-Americans to part ways with the Democrats.

The shirts feature the word "Blexit" and "we free" emblazoned across the front. It is available in the colors salmon, orchid and lagoon blue. There is also a denim cap with the logo of the campaign printed on it.

The design of the shirts debuted at the Young Black Leadership Summit in Washington D.C. over the weekend. Kanye did not appear in the meeting, which was meant to bring together conservatives in the black community, but Turning Point USA's Communications Director Candace Owens handed out the T-Shirts and heaped praises for Kanye.

"Blexit is a renaissance and I am blessed to say that this logo, these colors, were created by my dear friend and fellow superhero Kanye West," Candace told the crowd. "[West] has taken one of the boldest steps in America to open a conversation we have needed to have."

Just as expected, people were less than pleased after seeing the design. Instead of supporting the campaign, many start another campaign that called "Kanye Exit". "All he will get is a 'Kanye Exit' from any remaining fans. 'Kanexit' now, people," one Twitter user said. One other echoed, "How bout a Kwexit (kanye west exit).. I'm so down for that!"

Others wrote similar comments such as "I support a Yexit from politics and America," "I wish the world, especially the United States, would #KayneExit, and for good measure" and "more like kanyexit."

Despite Kanye's support for the campaign, the rapper also donated significant funds to a Democratic Chicago electoral candidate.
