A newly blond Kanye West visited Donald Trump on Tuesday, and the two men posed for photos but didn’t say much about their discussion.

Trump said the two were “just friends” and called the musician a “good man.” The president-elect said they discussed “life.” The two did not answer questions about whether West would perform at the Inauguration.

West stood silently next to Trump for photos in the lobby of Trump Tower. Asked why he wasn’t speaking, West said, “I just want to take a picture right now.” Trump also told West: “You take care of yourself,” according to video footage.

“I'll see you soon.”

West entered the building shortly after 9 a.m. with a large entourage. He was not accompanied by wife Kim Kardashian West.

The 39-year-old recently spent over a week in Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles for stress and exhaustion. Days before his hospitalization, he abruptly canceled his U.S. concert tour.
