McDonald’s Offically Responds To Kanye’s Bizarre French Fry Poem

Monday, we learned that Kanye West wrote a touching poem about McDonald’s and its food, colorfully telling a story about some scheming fries and “smooth apple pie.”

The poem was featured in Frank Ocean’s magazine called “Boys Don’t Cry” and the Golden Arches took note, actually acknowledging Kanye’s McStory.

Here’s what Mickey D’s had to say on Twitter, complimenting Mr. West:

Kanye West doesn’t seem to have many allies these days, often criticized for everything he does, from calling out Taylor Swift, to trying to cut in line for BBQ, so it’s nice to see someone of note has his back.

It’s still not clear what the poem meant as it was filled with jealousy and deceit, a lot more than you’d expect from McDonald’s, but even without clear interpretation of what Kanye meant, it’s definitely put people on notice, from McDonald’s itself, to Brooklyn rapper Joey Bada$$ reciting the poem, calling it “Shakespearean.”
