Kanye West Dating Russian Model Irina Shayk: Report

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: The Washington Post / Getty Yeezy is on the rebound. With his divorce from Kim Kardashian still in the works, Kanye West is reportedly dating Russian supermodel and actress Irina Shayk. The rumors that the multi-hyphenate Chicago native is dating the model have only intensified in the last couple of days. West just celebrated his 44th birthday with a trip to France and while overseas he was spotted out and about with Shayk, which according to social media and gossip rags means he’s definitely blowing her back out, allegedly. Per Page Six, the pair have been a couple for weeks but aren’t too serious yet. Said one source, “Kanye and Irina are seeing each other. It’s casual at the moment, but they are into each other. It’s been going on for a few weeks now.”...

Kanye West’s Yeezy Gap Line Officially Unveils Its First Piece

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Yeezy Gap / Gap After months of anticipation, the Yeezy Gap collaboration is here and it’s, well, interesting. The first release from the long-awaited collection is a sky blue down “Round Jacket” that Yeezy’s been seen rocking as of late in Los Angeles. The Pre-order for the new jacket went live earlier this morning and fans looking to get themselves one paid a modest $200 on Gap.com/yeezy. Interestingly enough the Yeezy “Round Jacket” also perfectly matches adidas’ latest Yeezy release, the Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN “Bright Cyan” colorway that’s been flying off the digital shelves since its drop this past Saturday. It’s almost like if you copped those kicks you have to get the jacket to match. The apparently zipper-less outerwear is also made out of recycled ...

Some Of Kanye West’s Illest Signature Sneaker Moments

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Laurent Viteur / Getty Outside of rap, Kanye West’s most revered moves and moments have revolved around debuting sneakers, bogarting Taylor Swift’s Grammy Awards moment, and making some very odd political MAGA maneuvers. Keeping things on sneakers, Kanye West’s panache for having the sneaker community on tilt dates back more than a decade when Kanye began collaborating with the likes of A Bathing Ape, New Balance, then of course, Nike. Having debuted and rocked many samples, prototypes and then unreleased sneakers, Yeezy loves the attention that a simple pair of kicks garners him and with that being the case he even uses them to send messages to the powers that be regardless of their feelings. So on his 44th Born Day, we at HipHopWired have compiled ...

Kanye West Seen Rocking Nikes Again

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Ignat/Bauer-Griffin / Getty Kanye West’s Yeezy sneaker line are by far adidas’ most sought after and popular silhouettes out on these streets. But could Kanye be lowkey rebelling against the brand that helped propel him to billionaire status? Recently the bipolar artist was spotted out in Los Angeles rocking his new favorite face covering (which is strange enough in itself), but sneakerheads immediately noticed that the adidas representative was rocking a pair of “Terminator” Nike Vandal High’s. Originally released in 2015 via NikeLab, the all-black canvas kicks with the silver swoosh isn’t exactly in grail status but does fetch upwards of $1000 on the resale market as it was a limited release inspired by one-off pair from the classic sci-fi film, Th...

Tyson Beckford Says Kanye West Tried To Press Him A Few Years Back

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: DJDM/WENN.com / WENN Kanye West was never one to beef with other rappers in the game since he wasn’t exactly built for that street ish. But that way of life doesn’t seem to extend to supermodels as the Louis Vuitton Don once tried to press world-famous male model Tyson Beckford, allegedly. In a recent IG interview for Let’s Go Live! with Sharon Carpenter, Beckford recalled the time that he and Kanye almost got into it in 2018 after Tyson got into a social media squabble with Ye’s then wife, Kim Kardashian. After having accused Kim of getting plastic surgery, Kim insinuated that Tyson Beckford was gay by referring to him as “Sis(ter)” only to have the LGBTQ community stand up for Tyson even though he said he wasn’t gay. Not long after that the two had a ru...

Rorschach Yeezy: Kanye West Spotted Rocking Full Face Mask

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Neil Mockford / Getty Kanye West can’t go anywhere without being spotted, even when he’s technically in disguise. The multihyphenate creative was reportedly spotted out in Los Angeles late in the week rocking a full face mask straight out of a bootleg episode of HBO’s Watchmen. It was Page Six that first noted Yeezy was seen in LA on Thursday (May 27) with what can be described as a bag over his head. Even with the full face covering, you’d be hard-pressed not to believe it’s West, who was wearing a navy-colored long sleeve, navy denim jeans, and some light-colored Yeezy Foam Runners. No word on if any of the gear, and what’s described as a “blue, white and brown balaclava” is part of the Yeezy Gap collection that is reportedly dropping at the end of June...

Kanye West Rumored to Be Dating Supermodel Irina Shayk

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Marco Piraccini / WENN If you thought the rumors about a possible Drake and Kim Kardashian hookup would have Kanye West down in the dumpster, think again. While the bipolar artist might be keeping himself out of the limelight as of late, word is spreading that the MAGA enthusiast has already found himself a rebound and the woman happens to be a supermodel from Russia (of course). According to The Sun, Kanye West has been secretly dating supermodel, Irina Shayk for a minute as she’s been single ever since breaking-up with Hollywood heavyweight, Bradley Cooper. Is she sure she ready to deal with all the madness that comes with Yeezy?? Did Vladimir Putin put her up to this as a favor to their friend in common, Donald Trump? So many questions at this point. S...

Kanye West Spotted With Some Unreleased Kicks, New Yeezys?

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Will Alexander/WENN.com / WENN Kanye West might’ve went and turned himself into a MAGA supporting Hip-Hop pariah as of late, but his adidas Yeezy line continues to be a hot commodity out in these streets. It looks like he’s got something new in the chamber for the sneaker community. Recently Kanye was spotted carrying around a pair of never-before-seen silhouettes that are very different from anything adidas has released in previous years. Looking like a sole made for the basketball court, many have begun speculating that it’s a new installment into the D. Rose Yeezy line that debuted not too long ago. With the bright blue outsoles it would make sense for them to be part of the D. Rose line as he’s on the New York Knicks right now and that orange and blue...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Neil Mockford / Getty After being almost a year in the making one of Kanye West’s most anticipated projects will finally come to life. His Yeezy Gap Collection is slated for a June release. As spotted on Page Six the Chicago, Illinois native is finally ready to unveil his first season with the apparel brand. Fashion trade outlet Business Of Fashion confirms the drop is locked in for a June release. While the report does not provide any direct insight on how many pieces will be included in the collection they make it clear that the San Francisco, California based brand is depending on his magic to get their profile back up. “The company has said its flagship brand’s Yeezy line is on track to be released by end of June. The Gap is counting its Kanye We...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Michel Dufour / Getty The masses prove once again they miss the old Kanye West. His 2010 custom bag has resold for a cool $55,000. As spotted on High Snobiety one of the rapper’s most famous accessories has just landed a new owner. Last week Yeezy’s custom Goyard backpack was sold for half a ticket via Justin Reed’s online boutique consignment shop. How the “All Of The Lights” MC came to securing the bag is described on the site as “while Kanye West and his girlfriend, Amber Rose, were in Paris during the 2010 Paris Fashion Week, West picked up his 1 of 1 ‘Robot Face’ Goyard Backpack that he designed. The 1 of 1 Goyard backpack is just one of the many limited edition pieces that West has accumulated in his closet.” This is not the only Goyard pi...
