Sunken Rapper Kanye West Vows To Give Back His 50% Share of Masters To G.O.O.D Music Artists
Source: Rich Fury/VF20 / Getty Kanye West’s presidential campaign is flopping, so now he is dead set on “freeing” himself and other artists from their contracts with music labels. Before Mr. West can lead that fight against unfair music contracts, he has to take a look in the mirror. Yeezy was already accurately called a hypocrite by Ma$e for making light of his contract situation with Diddy and Bad Boy, now he has seen the light in regards to himself. West is on a fervent quest to get his masters back and knows before that he can do that, he has to take care of the artists currently on his label G.O.O.D. Music. In a tweet, he vowed to bless his artists, stating: “I’m giving all Good music artists back the 50% share I have of their masters.” I’m giving all Good music artist back the 50% sh...

Kanye West Responds To Ma$e After He Was Called Out For Being A Hypocrite
Source: Brian Stukes / Getty Kanye West has had music Twitter in shambles after he decided to make it his mission to revolutionize how artists are signed to labels and the deals and contracts they were given while pissing on his Grammy, literally. His music biz rant caught the attention of one rapper who West sort of clowned on wax. While Kanye West was on his electronic soapbox, aka Twitter, there were some music artists calling bull you know what on West’s claims and felt he was very hypocritical. One artist, in particular, Ma$e, came with the receipts in an Instagram post calling out Yeezy for his hypocrisy. If you remember, on the track “Devil in a New Dress,” West spoke on Ma$e’s sudden exit from the rap game, “don’t leave while your hot, that’s how Ma$e screwed up.” Now the “Feel So ...
Kim Kardashian Rumored To Be Eyeing Divorce Over Kanye’s Anti-Abortion Stance
Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN As much as she tried to support her husband throughout this entire sh*t show of an episode, Kim Kardashian seems ready to pull the trigger on divorce proceedings and not even her harshest critics could blame her for it. According to Page Six the sex tape star turned household name has reached her breaking point with rap star turned MAGAt hubby, Kanye West, over his anti-abortion stance. Something that ultra-conservative Republicans hold near and dear to their religious beliefs. A source close to the couple tells Page Six that West’s bipolar disorder and his anti-abortion stance have taken a toll on their crumbling marriage. “Kim has the whole divorce planned out,” our insider shared, “but she’s waiting for him to get through his latest episode.” Over the past few...
Kanye West Pisses On His Grammy Award, Dubs Himself ‘Baby Putin’
Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Kanye West must really be on the same ish as Donald Trump because he’s doing the utter most these days. After waging war on Joe Biden, Drake, J. Cole, and on overall reality, Kanye West, aka Yeezy, has set his sights on the music industry. After posting over a hundred pages of his record contract on his Twitter account and calling the music industry “modern day slavery” (wouldn’t that be a choice, Ye?), Kanye took things up a notch by taking one of his many Grammy awards and filming himself urinating on it to express his current disdain for the industry that made him a household name. Kanye who began referring to himself as the “New Moses” then decided he’d go by a new moniker and from the sounds of it, well, he’s definitely coming off as a Trump comrade. TRUST ME...
Kanye West Urinates on Grammy Award in Latest Tweetstorm
It’s never a dull day if you follow Kanye West on Twitter. After spending parts of Tuesday and Wednesday railing against Universal Music Group (his label) and Sony ATV publishing — calling it “modern day slavery” — in an attempt to get ownership of his recording masters, presidential candidate West shared a video where he’s urinating on one of his Grammys. Yes, you read correctly. And it’s not very presidential either! On Tuesday, West first tweeted about his demands to be released from his contract and shared a photo of Prince and mentioned Michael Jackson as he fights to regain his masters. He also railed against the business interests of the fashion industry as well. “Here are my ten Universal contracts … I need every lawyer in the world to look at these,” he tweeted ahead sharing...
Pocket Change: Kanye West Has Personally Spent Nearly $7M On His Presidential Pipe Dream, Allegedly
Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty As the race for president is fast approaching its conclusion this November, Kanye West’s campaign is becoming one of the most bizarre bids ever to participate in an election cycle. Keeping his political aspirations afloat isn’t cheap, though. The rapper’s overdue campaign financials filed with the Federal Election Commission were released over the weekend, revealing how nearly $7 million of West’s personal funds were spent over the last couple of months. And, so far, only an estimated 12 states are willing to show his name on a ballot. NYMag breaks down the numerous issues Ye’s campaign is battling as of late. Five states have ongoing litigation against his ballot efforts, one in Virginia, “where a number of electors for West were unaware that they had signe...
MAGA Acolyte Kanye West Walks On Water During Sunday Service
Source: Splash / Splash News Yeah, Kanye West is really trying his hardest to convince his followers that he’s divine for real for real. With the return of his Sunday Service congregation, the “Presidential spoiler candidate” has decided to take things a tad bit further and took his family for a stroll… on water. That’s right, Yeezus walked on water with his children because, well, why not? According to Hypebeast, the stunt came after Pastor Joel Osteen gave a sermon at Sunday Service in Atlanta in which he spoke about Jesus walking on water and giving Peter the permission to walk on H2O himself. Well, it seems to have been part of a grand plan in which Kanye and his family re-enacted the scene and walked on a pond outside of Pinewood Studios to show and prove that he’s worthy of MAGA coun...
Kanye West’s Presidential Campaign Has Cost Him Over $6 Million
Running for president isn’t cheap when you’re paying out of pocket, and Kanye West has shelled out more than $6.7 million for his campaign, according to a recent filing with the Federal Election Commission. That hefty price tag might have something to do with the fact that the rapper’s only received $11,472.66 in outside contributions. A big chunk of that is going to consulting firms (notably Fortified Consulting, which shares the same address as Republican consulting firm Lincoln Strategy Group), to help get Ye’s name on the ballot. And that plan isn’t going great. As Consequence of Sound points out, West’s name is currently only on the ballot in 10 states after he was kicked off a handful of others, including his home state of Illinois. And that’s not where his t...
Kanye West Gets Booted From Virginia Ballot
Source: Pool / Getty Kanye West’s Presidential campaign took another L. Yesterday (Sept. 4), a judge granted an order to removed Yeezy’s name from the Virginia ballot. Apparently, the “Power” rapper once again got caught peddling the jig when it came to getting the petition signatures needed to get on the ballot legally. Reports Raw Story: Richmond Circuit Court Judge Taylor was looking at the electors that were chosen for West’s bid because the people said that they were misled about taking an “Elector Oath.” “Two signed affidavits were submitted Friday to the State Board of Elections from registered voters who said they were duped into signing up to serve as electors for West in Virginia,” the Washington Post reported on Monday. “In a separate account, an Alexandria woman ...
Kanye West Claims GOP Isn’t Funding His Presidential Pipe Dream
Source: Screenshot / Youtube Kanye West has all intentions of continuing his presidential campaign despite the fact some outside observers believe he’s rigging the election for President Donald Trump. In a new interview, the Chicago producer and designer claims the Republican Party isn’t financially backing his campaign, then added the fact he’s richer than Trump. Yeezy, speaking in that measured, media-trained tone that doesn’t sound like the Kanye of old, sat down with Nick Cannon and the host’s Cannon’s Class program on YouTube. In the first part of the chat, West gets immediately into the chatter that he’s dealing with mental demons but it’s clear from the interview that he’s lucid and aware enough to recognize what his journey looks like from the outside. After a healthy defense of Ta...
Kanye West Responds to Speculation Republicans Are Paying Him to Help Trump’s Re-Election
Kanye West has addressed the speculation that Republicans are paying him to run for U.S. president this year to be some kind of distraction. “Bro, can’t nobody pay me,” West said in an upcoming interview on Nick Cannon’s podcast, Cannon’s Class. “I got more money than Trump.” The rapper also added, “I’m not running for president. I’m walking.” In the interview that’s going live tomorrow (Sept. 1), Cannon traveled to West’s mountain ranch in Wyoming to talk about his life, career and of course, his run for elected office. Aside from his sit-down chat with Cannon, West’s campaign is currently in trouble with Virginia election officials because voters who were identified to support his campaign said that “they didn’t know what they were signing up for,” the Virginia Mercury reported.
