Kanye West has triggered another controversy by blaming George Floyd's death on the drug fentanyl.
During an appearance on Drink Champs that aired on Sunday, the rapper incorrectly claimed that Floyd died as a result of the synthetic opioid.
While referencing Candace Owens's new documentary, The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM, West commented:
"The day when he died, he said a prayer for eight minutes... They hit him with the fentanyl. If you look, the guy's knee wasn't even on his neck like that."
