Kanye West Paid People To Sign Petition In Order Secure Illinois Ballot
Source: The Washington Post / Getty Kanye West’s political run continues to get weirder and weirder. He apparently gave people from his hometown cold hard cash to get him right. As spotted on The Blast, the polarizing creative is doing whatever he can to ensure he has a chance at the presidential seat; even payola. According to a report by The Celebrity Insider, he hired an organization called Let The Voters Decide to assist in getting his name on the Illinois ballot.

Elon Musk Tried Convincing Kanye West to Run For President in 2024, but It Didn’t Work
Elon Musk tried to talk some sense into Kanye West regarding his presidential bid, but it sounds like his BFF didn’t listen. During a new interview with The New York Times, the Tesla and SpaceX founder explained how he attempted to convince West to delay running for president (despite giving his “full support” when Ye first threw his hat into the ring). “I’ve done my best to convince him that 2024 would be better than 2020,” Musk divulged, saying he wouldn’t want his friend to be accused of splitting the Black vote for presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden. During the interview, Musk also revealed he’s known the rapper for “at least 10 years” and checked up on him after his latest Twitter ramblings, which included accusing his wife Kim Kardashian of flying a doctor to Wyo...

Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN It seems like Kanye West‘s mind is refocusing, maybe. The multi-hyphenate rapper has apologized to Kim Kardashian over what many consider to be some appalling and asinine comments—even if they were the result of a bipolar episode.

Kim K Kurved?: Kanye West Refusing To See Kim Kardashian, Allegedly
Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN Kanye West is spiraling. Reportedly, the man who seems to be in the midst of a manic episode of his bipolar disorder is refusing to see his own wife, Kim Kardashian. According to TMZ, Yeezy has been curving wifey. Sources close to the couple tell TMZ … there’s been very little communication between husband and wife since he jetted off for his South Carolina rally last weekend, and zero face time. We’re told Kim has made attempts to talk to Kanye about his mental state … but he’s not receptive. Our sources say she’s twice suggested flying to their ranch where Ye’s been staying to help him out, but he’s shot her down both times. This is where we have to point to the jig. What wife do you know would not jet to her husband’s side if he is in mental duress, even if sa...

According to The Sun, West hit the local Walmart to shop for kids clothing on Wednesday (July 22). One of the guys spotted out and about with Yeezy happened to be Dame Dash. If you know you’re Hip-Hop lore, Dash was one of the first people to believe that West could make it in the game as a rapper while many said he should just focus on production. West was rocking a blue hoodie and ripped jeans, along with those adidas Yeezy foam runners. He also appears to have died his hair red. And since this was a Walmart trip, he was rocking a face mask in the stor...

Kim Kardashian Issues Statement On Kanye West, Details Bipolar Disorder Struggle
Source: Splash / Splash News Kim Kardashian has issued a statement regarding the erratic behavior of her husband Kanye West. Taking to her Instagram Stories, Kardashian detailed that her hands have been tied since Yeezy is a grown man, which makes dealing with his bipolar disorder particularly tough while trying to maintain any semblance of privacy. We’ll save the fact that she at least initially dropped her statement on IG Stories for some other time (but yeh, t it wasn’t the Notes app). “As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder,” she wrote. “Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children an...
Black Woman Who Kanye West Targeted At “Campaign Rally” Opens Up About The Experience
Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Kanye West is having himself one hell of a week and not in a good way. The sh*t show pushed as a campaign rally is coming back to haunt him, one of the attendees is speaking out. When clips from Kanye West’s campaign rally began to hit Twitter, one, in particular, stood out. No, we’re not talking about the clip of him sharing that he almost aborted his first child or him claiming Harriet Tubman never freed slaves (Tubman’s great-niece checked him on that), we’re referring to the clip of him singling out a young Black woman in the crowd. In an exclusive interview with Madame Noire’s Veronica Wells, 20-year-old Iesha M. Daniels opened up about her experience at Kanye’s zany presidential campaign. In the interview, Daniels explains why she wanted to attend the car wr...
Kim Kardashian Speaks Out on Kanye West’s Mental Health
From the moment Kanye West announced his presidential campaign, it’s been a whirlwind ride for the rapper/mogul/candidate. While West has been open about having bipolar disorder, his recent behavior has led many to believe that the rapper is going through a manic episode. His wife, Kim Kardashian, released a statement about West. “I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye’s right to privacy when it comes to his health,” Kardashian started her message on Instagram Stories. “But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health.” She continued, “Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that family is powerless unless the member ...
Harriet Tubman’s Great-Niece Gives Kanye West A Much-Needed History Lesson
Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Whether or not Kanye West is not taking his meds, one thing is obvious, his lack of knowledge when it comes to African American history. Kanye West’s zany presidential campaign rally he held on Sunday (Jul.19) not only has reportedly landed him in hot water with his wife and her family but with the relatives of the iconic slave abolitionist, Harriet Tubman. During the sh*t show event, West inaccurately claimed that Tubman didn’t free the slaves. “Harriet Tubman never actually freed the slaves, she just had the slaves go work for other white people.” Tina Wyatt, Harriet Tubman’s great-niece, spoke with TMZ and said the rapper was “dead wrong” and pointed out if Tubman didn’t free slaves Kanye would still be on a plantation, wouldn’t be able to spew the nonsense he ...

In his best across the pond accent, Aubrey let the chopper spray calling out both West and his G.O.O.D. Music president Pusha T. On UK rapper Headie One’s “Only You Freestyle,” Drake seemly alleges that Kanye has been hiding behind King Push when it came to their “beef.”. On the song he raps: “Sh*t, you man been droppin’ lately/Don’t make me have to fly my iTunes,” Drake raps. “So much people buy into my hype / D...
Ty Dolla $ign, Skrillex, Kanye West, and FKA Twigs Drop Kaleidoscopic “Ego Death” Animated Video
A few days after teasing the official music video for their collaborative single “Ego Death,” Ty Dolla $ign, Skrillex, Kanye West, and FKA Twigs have unveiled the final version. The four artists opted for an animated video by Emonee LaRussa, a two-time Emmy Award-winning motion graphics artist who enlisted the help of 10 animators and 3 character designers. With its hauntingly kaleidoscopic animations of each artist, who lick neon blood off knives and trip on magic mushrooms, the video is nothing short of breathtaking. Churning along to a hypnotic, moombah-inspired beat courtesy of Skrillex, the video also serves as a bewitchingly captivating accessory to the lyrical content of the song, which waxes poetic about the need to kill one’s ego in ...
