Kanye West is no stranger to shocking his fans, and his new music video, which has received favorable acclaim up to now, has done just that in a positive way. The musician’s latest video for his song Father, from the album Bully, features a Michael Jackson impersonator, so immaculately dressed that fans thought it was an AI-generated version of the late pop star. The scene stealer has been a source of conversation online since the video dropped.
Kanye West’s new video features Michael Jackson impersonator
After several controversies over the past years, it seems that Ye, or Kanye West, is back at his very best with a new music video for his song, Father. Featured as a part of the new album, Bully, this song from Ye features a Church setting in the music video, which was directed by his wife, Bianca Censori.
The eye-grabbing video featured a knight on horseback, a couple of astronauts, and the surprise inclusion of Travis Scott. Scott was also featured in the track.
But the real show stealer in the video was a man in an all-white suit who resembled Michael Jackson. The resemblance was so uncanny that many thought Kanye West had used an AI-generated version of the pop star.
In the video, Michael Jackson stares straight ahead for most of the screentime before walking out with the wedding procession.
TMZ confirmed that the person featured in the video is Fabio Jackson. Jackson is a well-known Michael Jackson impersonator who has made many appearances before.
Kanye West’s Bully was released on March 28, 2026, and has gained significant positive acclaim from critics. Many have pointed out that it was a notable upgrade from his work in the past years.
Father, especially, has seen positive critical acclaim, and the video is also garnering significant viewership on YouTube.
