Kanye West has been slammed for showing an 'inexcusable level of stupidity and cruelty' after remarks about Parkinson's disease on his new album.
Opening track to Yeezus, produced by Daft Punk, 'On Sight' features the line "we get this bitch shaking like Parkinsons".
The Chief Executive of Parkinson's UK, Steve Ford has issued a statement on the lyrics, saying: "Kanye West has shown an inexcusable level of stupidity and cruelty towards people living with an incurable condition.
"Life with Parkinson's is difficult enough without becoming fodder for insensitive celebrities, who should know better, looking for their next big hit."

Ford went on to discuss the "intolerable social discrimination" Parkinson's sufferers have to deal with on a regular basis and criticises Kanye again by stating, "This sort of thoughtless, callous comment can only serve to make things even worse for them."
West, who has been known to use provocative and derogatory language on his previous albums, described the process of Yeezus as "all about giving no fucks at all," and "we [West and collaborators] just wanted to make the best product possible."
Steve Ford may be waiting a long time for an apology then.
