Himintheflesh sues Kanye West of appropriating his aesthetic and launch strategy—a project Freeman claims was designed to revolutionize the music industry through a message of “spiritual healing and wisdom”. After months of social media silence, Jordan James Freeman, known as Himintheflesh, has reemerged with those statements in an exclusive interview, for Free Press Info.
Himintheflesh describes his creativity as a socially impactful “form of art” intended to challenge traditional industry structures. However, Himintheflesh alleges his vision was sabotaged by Kanye West before its implementation, pointing to systemic resistance against independent voices. Behind the allegations lies a deeper narrative: personal conflicts, the recent loss of loved ones—including his pastor and spiritual guide—and a battle to preserve his artistic identity in an environment he claims “favors imitation over authenticity.”
Who is Himintheflesh?
Born in Ohio, Freeman blends hip-hop, R&B, and alternative rock into his music, but his work transcends sound. As an activist, he has spearheaded food justice initiatives and community programs, cultivating a dedicated following. His viral debut single, “I hit a lick on Satan” (surpassing 150,000 streams on SoundCloud in its first month), led to collaborations with producers like TayKeith and Pierre Bourne. Yet for Himintheflesh, metrics now take a backseat to his broader mission: leveraging art as a catalyst for cultural and spiritual transformation.
Interview with Himintheflesh about Kanye West
1. Himintheflesh, you mentioned that Kanye West stole your aesthetic and your “industry rollout.” Can you explain exactly what that strategy was and how he used it?
The strategy was to capture America’s attention and bring knowledge and wisdom to the masses that could potentially free them from slavery.
2. When and how was your first contact with Kanye? What ideas did you share with him at that time?
My first contact with Kanye was through Butta Murphy, who’s an A&R at Empire Records. They thought Kanye would be a good addition and potential boost to my rollout.
3. Do you think this was intentional, or that someone in the industry leaked your concept without him knowing?
I believe it was very intentional, systematically planned and contrived — along with my Instagram being taken down.
4. You’ve said your rollout had a deeper meaning related to knowledge and healing. How was it supposed to impact the industry?
I was going to debut in the industry by saying “White Lives Matter,” because I’m half white and have a racist family history. I did my research and learned that white people are actually dying faster than they are being born. Compared to the rest of the world, they’re the real minorities and should be acknowledged as such — because that’s where all this hate comes from.
It stems from fear. Fear of the erasure of the white race. That’s why my uncle, David Eden Lane, created the movement and coined the term “1488”:
14 represents the “14 Words” to preserve the white race, and 88 are the “88 Precepts” — 88 ways of living.
88 also stands for “HH,” which can mean “Heil Hitler,” but in my case, HH are also the first and last letters of my name — “Himintheflesh,” aka the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
I could really break down each precept and dive deep into the 14 Words that so many people live by.
5. How do you feel seeing such an influential figure like Kanye use your concept without giving it the true purpose it was meant to have?
At first, I was kind of excited. But at the same time, I wanted to be known as a standalone artist.
I believe — and I know — that with my ideas and aesthetics, I could be bigger than Kanye and have an even longer career.
I’m younger, I have different beliefs, and a different way of doing things. I didn’t want to get caught up in whatever he has going on right now.
He’s manic, he’s erratic, and he lacks discipline and polish. He actually ends up doing more damage than anything. He wastes ideas, and once the hype dries up, he’s onto the next one — leaving the people who were following him confused and lost.
6. Do you plan to relaunch your original concept so people can see it the way it was truly meant to be?
I’m launching the concept as we speak. I’m in talks with the Grand Wizard of the KKK — the Ohio chapter — who actually knew my grandfather’s brother.
7. Have you considered taking any legal action against Kanye, or do you just want people to know the truth?
Yes, we’re in the middle of an intellectual property lawsuit.
8. How can your followers support you right now to help your career take the direction it deserves?
By standing up in the comments and spreading the word. By correcting and fact-checking these dudes to their face.
Ask Kanye where he got his ideas from and why he’s doing what he’s doing.
Ask him — and he won’t tell you. He won’t say who inspired him or why he’s interested in this.
He’s leading his followers nowhere because he’s genuinely part of the Antichrist spirit.
9. You’ve said the industry can sabotage emerging artists who try to grow independently. How has this affected you personally?
It’s affected my mental health greatly. I’ve had to be hospitalized because of the anguish his antics have caused me.
He did the same thing to Kid Cudi, who’s from Ohio… He did it to Virgil, and he’s probably done it to countless others.
Yes, the industry will sabotage anyone to protect certain artists and investors’ profits — especially if your existence is a threat to another artist’s wave.
They’ll either literally kill you, or send you to a mental hospital — that’s what they do if they can “51/50” you. That’s why they want new artists to move to California, because there they can legally lock you up.
There are so many ways they can get at you and try to scare you into hiding.
Ever notice how there’s only one Taylor Swift? Only one Beyoncé?
That’s because the industry doesn’t allow any competition to surface — they create monopolies.
There are plenty of talented people with the right look, but they’ll never see the light of day because there’s so much sabotage and betrayal.
Most don’t even make it past the first level.
10. Do you feel this situation has limited your exposure in the industry? Have you faced any blockages or censorship?
At one point, I wanted to be part of the industry. But now that I know how lame it is… they’re all cornballs, they’re trans behind closed doors.
Nobody talks about God, or North Korea, or human trafficking.
They don’t even have to put it in their music — but at least use your voice and your money from the music to make a radical change.
But there are filters and barriers in place to make sure everyone stays in line.
They want you in California, chained up in a mansion you don’t own and can’t leave.
They want you driving a car that the label owns, doped up on meds, signing NDAs…
I’ve seen contracts that say the label can have you hospitalized if they “feel the need.” Basically, they’re saying they’ll protect their investment — the artist — by any means.
So no, I don’t have exposure.
But the truth will have to come out someday.
The crazy part is the truth has already been released — but now you’ve got clowns trying to dilute and twist it, hoping people will overlook it, dismiss it, or accept the BS and get misled by it.
