McDonald's responds to Kanye West's poem about its French fries

Kanye West penned a poem about McDonald's in Frank Ocean's new magazine, Boys Don't Cry, indicating "them French fries look good tho."

Mickey Dee's is, of course, lovin' it. The fast food giant responded to West's ode Monday afternoon. "We're lovin' the love for McDonald's World Famous French Fries and Apple Pies," the company said in a statement posted to Twitter. (West also called the apple pie "smooth.") However, McDonald's took issue with West's slight of the McRib, which he dubbed "artificial."

"Like the beef in our burgers," the message continued, "our love for our fans' creativity is 100% real."

Ocean released a visual album Thursday night (Endless) and his second studio album on Saturday afternoon (Blonde).
