Artist Formerly Know As Kanye West Working On ‘DONDA 2’, Twitter Does What It Does
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Kanye West aka Ye spent a gang of money to promote his last album, DONDA, with a numerous album listening events, pushed back release dates and a feature-heavy guestlist. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that he is working on its sequel, DONDA 2. Complex first reported that music exec Steven Victor revealed that the artist formerly known as Yeezy was working on the project. “Ye has started working on his new masterpiece DONDA 2,” Steven Victor told Complex. But worth noting, many people have already pointed out that Ye has a suspect track record when it comes to proper sequels (remember Cruel Winter, the sequel to Cruel Summer?—never happened). Will it drop? Will it make the original’s recording budget look like a pittance? Will he ...
Kanye West Seen On A Date With Actress Julia Fox, Allegedly

Over the weekend, buzz grew that he and actress Julia Fox were giving it a go when the two were spotted getting familiar at a restaurant in Miami. According to TMZ, Yeezy and Fox were spotted at the Carbone restaurant in Miami this past Saturday night and though social media wasn’t impressed with Ye’s latest female associate, it seems like things aren’t as serious as many believed they might be. PageSix is now reporting that Julia Fox has doubts that she and Ye will be linking up a second time as she told a paparazzo “I don’t know” when asked if she and Kanye would be going on another date together.

Reports TMZ: Ye touched down in Central America Wednesday, and was pictured at the Philip S.W Goldson International Airport posing with Prince.

Stalker Vibes?: Kanye West Buys New Home Across The Street From Kim Kardashian
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: David Livingston / Getty Kanye West has been making an embarrassment of himself with the way he’s been begging Kim Kardashian to come back into his life. Still, the man decided to go from embarrassing to straight-up disturbing with his latest stunt to get closer (literally) to his former wife. Fresh off of breaking up with his model girlfriend, Vinetria, TMZ is reporting that Kanye West not only bought a new home across the street from Kim Kardashian’s residence, but the man even overpaid to own the property! Dropping a cool $4.5 million for the 3,650 square foot property, Yeezy reportedly paid $421,000 over the asking price just to live a stone’s throw away from Pete Davidson’s current girlfriend. Related Stories While one would think that Kanye made a m...
Hit-Boy Opens Up About Kanye’s ‘Drink Champs’ Interview
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Vivien Killilea / Getty Now that Big Sean has finally responded to the shots that Kanye West took at him on Drink Champs, Hit-Boy is opening up about his feelings on the situation and is just as confused as Big Sean was at the initial slander. Chopping it up with DJ Akademiks on his Off The Record podcast, Hit-Boy said he was taken aback by Ye calling his Big Sean signing the “worst” thing he’s ever done as the three of them were kicking it together just days before the interview aired and Ye was acting like things were on the up and up. Related Stories “That was confusing for me, because me and Sean was with him for two days straight and he had already recorded the Drink Champs so it was weird for him to not say nothing. That sh*t threw me off.” He was c...
Kanye West & Model Girlfriend Vinetria Are Done, Expect More Begging For Kim Kardashian To Come Back
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: David Livingston / Getty Kanye West and his model girlfriend Vinetria are officially done. Page Six exclusively reports the couple has decided to call it a quits after “dating” for a couple of months. The gossip column pointed out that Yeezy no longer follows Vinetria on Instagram, but she still follows him. Page Six first broke the news of West and Vinetria dealing with each other for “a while” after she was spotted with him at his Donda Academy’s debut basketball game in Minneapolis together. Even though they have been dealing with each other, that didn’t stop Yeezy from showing his a** and begging for his now ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, to come back home. It would appear Vinetria grew tired of seeing the man she was allegedly hooking up with pleading for ...
Ye Think?: Kanye West’s Presidential Campaign Was Run By GOP Operatives: Report
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: The Washington Post / Getty Kanye West tells anyone who asks that he’s a proud independent or free thinker. However, when it comes to his failed Presidential bid, the receipts say the campaign was actually being run by GOP elites despite its claim of being “independent.” Ye was potentially being exploited by a political party known for lusting after power no matter how nefarious the means? You shouldn’t be shocked if you’ve been paying attention. Related Stories The Daily Beast reports that new documents confirm that although Kanye West’s campaign was promoted as an “independent” effort, it actually received millions of dollars in services and support from the “GOP Elite,” some of which were on Donald Trump’s payroll. Ye’s actions, even if he was blissful...
Blank Stare: Kim Kardashian Expresses Regret For Telling Kanye West To Take off His MAGA Hat
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Kim Kardashian got candid about her ex-husband, Kanye West’s exploits while rocking his red cape, aka his MAGA hat. The reality star and now aspiring lawyer is now expressing regret for asking Coonye West not to wear that stupid MAGA hat during his SNL appearance to express his absurd support for the worst president we have ever had, Donald Trump. Kardashian spoke on her handling of that situation in a recent interview with journalist athlete Bari Weiss, where she also shared her two cents on “cancel culture.” “Why should he take that [MAGA hat] off if that’s what he believes in? Why can’t he wear that on TV?” Kardashian asked. “Half of the country voted for him, so clearly other people like him.” Related Stories “If I worried about ever...
Way 2 Edited: Drake’s Screen Time Is Limited In Amazon’s Kanye West Larry Hoover Benefit
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: CNW Group/Bullrider / CNW Group/Bullrider It seems that the misunderstanding between Drake and Kanye West might still be a thing. Amazon has released the footage from their joint Larry Hoover benefit and Champagne Papi is barely in it. As spotted on Variety the self-proclaimed 6 God is noticeably absent in the final version of their recent concert. Released earlier this week Drizzy’s entire 12 song set has been cut from the final edit of the show. The only time he is apart of the festivities is when he and Kanye West are both walking down the very long steps of the Los Angeles Coliseum. Additionally the footage of two icons performing “Forever” together remains in tact. But other than that, bing bong. Related Stories Naturally his absence took Rap fa...
‘Free Larry Hoover’ Representatives Set The Record Straight On Where Concert Proceeds Are Going
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Amazon / Amazon Representatives for YEEZY and YZY GAP are clearing the air on questions and confusion regarding what’s being done with the proceeds earned by the live-streamed “Free Larry Hoover” benefit concert put on in Los Angeles by hitmakers and beef squashers Drake and Kanye West. As previously reported, last week’s concert was named for Larry Hoover, the former Chicago gang leader and Gangster Disciples founder who is serving multiple life sentences in Colorado after being convicted of murder in 1973. The feds have gone full anti-Black ops in expressing their displeasure with Hoover being celebrated, but many prison reform advocates believed he isn’t the same man he was when he went inside and that his sentence was harsher than it should have ...
