Kanye West Attributes $68 Million Tax Refund To God In 'Airpool Karaoke'

Kanye West's new album, Jesus Is King, was discussed in-depth during our music slot this week. He has now spoken to James Corden about his new-found belief in God in a special edition of Carpool Karaoke called Airpool Karaoke, which takes place on a flight to Los Angeles rather than in a car. Among other things, Kanye attributes his $68 million tax refund to a higher power. Does he really believe what he's saying, or is he trying to appeal to a particular audience? Jennifer Gannon and Joe O'Shea discussed this and more in our TV slot. Listen to the interview in full by pressing the play button on this page.
