This all leads to death making their way to a building and preparing to shoot their target — Kanye West. West is shot in the head but the real plot twist comes after the attack, where Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are seen laughing at news reports of West's death. Needless to say, DJ Muggs, who directed the video, doesn't hold anything back in this video.

"Assassination Day" comes from DJ Muggs' Dia Del Asesinato album. The 12-track project features DOOM, Raekwon, Freddie Gibbs, MF Doom, Mayhem Lauren, Eto, Hus Kingpin, Mach-Hommy and Kool G Rap. The album can be streamed below.

In related news, West says that Jimmy Kimmel's question about if Trump cares about black people didn't leave him stumped.

"On Jimmy Kimmel, we had a great time having a dialogue. I'm reading that I was stumped by a question. Let me clarify the click bait. I wasn't stumped. I wasn't given a chance to answer the question," the artist tweeted. "The question was so important I took time to think. And then I was hit with the let's go to commercial break. That interview showed strong personalities with different opinions having a civil conversation."

West still hasn't provided an answer to the question though.
