"I think music has a powerful way of taking away negative energy and polarising feelings, especially with someone like Donald Trump, who is such a polarising figure," he told AFP.
"I want my music to unite people. And I think that's why I moved towards music that included animals. Because animals unite people," he added.
Trump had stirred controversy by alleging that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were kidnapping and consuming pets.
“There’s been talk that they’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there,” Trump said.
