It is no secret by now, Kanye West and Elon Musk share a mutual admiration for one another. The bond is so tight, that Musk would actually endorse West's run for Presidency. In the past, Elon has had nothing but good things to say about Kanye, despite the controversy that follows him.

According to Elon, West belongs on the top list of most influential people in the world. He explains, "Kanye West would be the first person to tell you he belongs on this list," writes the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla Motors. "The dude doesn't believe in false modesty, and he shouldn't. Kanye's belief in himself and his incredible tenacity--he performed his first single with his jaw wired shut ('Thru the Wire') -; got him to where he is today."

According to Musk, Kanye is making the most of the platform that he has, "He fought for his place in the cultural pantheon with a purpose. In his debut album, over a decade ago, Kanye issued what amounted to a social critique and a call to arms (with a beat): “We rappers is role models: we rap, we don’t think.” But Kanye does think. Constantly. About everything. And he wants everybody else to do the same: to engage, question, push boundaries. Now that he’s a pop-culture juggernaut, he has the platform to achieve just that. He’s not afraid of being judged or ridiculed in the process. Kanye’s been playing the long game all along, and we’re only just beginning to see why."

The two are very close and most recently, fans are debating if a pic posted by an Elon fan page is real or photoshopped.

Fans had a blast with this one, as an Elon Musk fan account put a picture of the billionaire, alongside some famous faces including Kanye, Travis Scott, and Quavo. Given his close relationship with Kanye West, some are inclined to think that the photo is real, though not everyone is buying it.
