Wests entrance in the race marks the latest shift in the rappers zigzag approach to the 2020 campaign.
Flanagan toldNew Yorkthat he had been connected to the campaign after hearing about it through the grapevine.
He did not elaborate further before ending the interview.
Moving forward with his campaign, West faces a number of obstacles.
Many states require more than a check for a third party candidate to appear on the ballot.
West would not be the first well-known and well-financed independent candidate to equivocate on mounting a presidential campaign.
It is unlikely that West will do well in Oklahoma, despite his family ties to the state.
Representatives for West also did not respond to a request for comment.
