Kanye West to meet Donald Trump and Jared KushnerOct 9 (AZINS) Merely few days after Kanye West went on a pro-Trump rant on Saturday Night Live, the rapper is scheduled to meet with United States President Donald Trump.

West, who has faced backlash over his vocal support of Trump, will meet him and his senior advisor and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, at the White House on Thursday, according to

The New York Times. They are expected to discuss manufacturing in West's native Chicago and job opportunities for former convicts.

Wearing a pro-president 'Make America Great Again' baseball cap, West delivered a pro-Trump speech on the premiere of the 44th season of Saturday Night Live. Despite his speech not being aired, the 41-year-old received applauds from Trump.

The rapper recently went off social media apparently after he came under fire for supporting the US President.

Earlier this year, West's wife and reality television star, Kim Kardashian West, met Trump and about discussed about prison reform.
