Madonna gave Kanye West the ultimate praise in a recent interview with the New York Daily News. The singer collaborated with Kanye on three songs for her Rebel Heart album, and she told the paper that she sees some of herself in the controversial rapper. “Kanye is the new Madonna,” she said. “Kanye is the black Madonna.” On what the two have in common, Madonna remarked that they both love to push boundaries. “We know, and recognize, that we have that in common. We’re comrades in the envelope-pushing genre.”
