Black Ops: Kanye West Says He’ll Be Appearing On ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’
Source: YouTube (Supplied by WENN) / WENN Ask, and you shall receive. After putting it out in the universe that he wanted to appear on The Joe Rogan Experience, alleged Presidential candidate Kanye West is getting his wish. In case you’re unaware, The Joe Rogan Experience is an immensely popular podcast which books a wide array of guests for the comedian/host/UFC to commentator to chat it up with. Also, it’s where Elon Musk was seen smoking weed in the studio. On Saturday (Oct. 17), Yeezy took to Twitter to reveal he’ll be sitting down with Rogan next week on Friday. “Joe Rogan said it’s cool for me to design the set for our podcast this Friday,” tweeted West along with a photo of what looks like him and Rogan on a Facetime call.

Kanye West Wins Billboard Music Awards In Gospel Category, Killer Mike Honored
Source: Kevin Mazur/BBMA2020 / Getty Last night’s Billboard Music Awards went down and while Post Malone walked away the night’s biggest winner with 9 extra trophies to display on the mantle in his home, Kanye West also got some recognition for his new venture into the world of gospel music. Though his gospel album Jesus Is King was received to mix reviews and mostly praised by Donald Trump Jr. (we wonder why), Yeezy walked away with Top Gospel Artist, Top Christian Album, Top Gospel Album, and Top Gospel Song awards by the time the night was done. Kirk Franklin is somewhere cursing the heavens over this, maybe. Still, at the end of the day it is basically a popularity contest and no disrespect to Mr. Franklin, but Kanye West is way more known outside of gospel circles so we’re not surpris...
Kanye West Drops New Song ‘Nah Nah Nah’
There’s no stopping Kanye West. After releasing a snippet of “Believe What I Say,” sampling Lauryn Hill’s “Doo-Wop (That Thing),” West has now dropped a new freestyle track. “Nah Nah Nah,” which appeared on social media into the early hours of Wednesday morning (Oct. 14), delves into his current run for U.S. president, the podcast appearance with Nick Cannon and his contract dispute with Universal Music Group. With the song, West also shared a clip of a UFC fighter knocking out Imapa Kasanganay in a match last weekend. “Nah Nah Nah” follows “Wash Us in the Blood,” which he released in June. West promised a new album called DONDA in July, but it didn’t come. Instead, a clip of the track popped up on social media. On the campaign front, West released a campaign ad this week following a Kentu...
Black Ops: Kanye West Releases First Presidential Campaign Ad
Source: Drew Angerer / Getty Kanye West‘s 2020 Presidential bid isn’t just a farce on its face, but under the surface it’s also a Republican ploy to help siphon away Black votes from Joe Biden to help the Racist-In-Chief hold onto power in the White House. Even though the conscious backpack rapper turned MAGA acolyte is only on the ballot in a handful of states (hence, making it impossible for him to become America’s 46th President), Yeezy is still going full steam ahead with his campaign and just dropped his first presidential campaign ad aimed at faith-based Americans. In his minute long campaign ad, Kanye West comes off as one of the most sane and visionary candidates we’ve seen in years telling Americans that “We as a people are called to a greater purpose than ourselves. We are not on...
Kanye West Hits London & Ignores Quarantine Protocols
Source: Splash / Splash News Kanye West seems to be living in his own world these days in which he walks on water and is happy to be a tool of the oppressive Republican party, but does that mean he’s excluded from quarantine protocols when it comes to traveling too? Recently the bipolar rapper took a trip to the UK with his 7-year-old daughter, North West and though any and everyone traveling to across the pond are required to quarantine for two weeks upon arrival, NME is reporting that Yeezy and his team were walking the streets of London as if they’re not from a country where the Coronavirus has infected millions of people. Seemingly ignoring quarantine rules so he and his firstborn could attend the Bottega Veneta fashion show this past Friday night, many people were rightfully upse...

Fool Runnin’: Kanye West Still In Presidential Race, Debuts ‘VOTE KANYE 2020’ Merch

MAGA Jig: Kanye West Files Docs That Say He’s Worth Hundreds Of Millions, Not Billions
Source: The Washington Post / Getty Kanye West is very wealthy. However, financial docs he had to file since he’s running for President (spoiler: he won’t win) indicate he isn’t worth near the billions of dollars he’s been claiming. Business Insider initially reported about Yeezy’s financial disclosures, which he had to present to the Federal Election Commission. As the Daily Mail points out, West claims he has three companies (Yeezy LLC, Yeezy Apparel LLC, and Yeezy Footwear LLC.) that are worth $50 million each while his partnerships with adidas and Nike are worth a combined $30 to $75 million. Note, we’re not sure how the latter works considering he’s rocking with adidas, although he did threaten to roll with the Jumpman if the other brand doesn’t put him on its board during a recent Tw...

In an interview with GRAZIA, Kardashian detailed how she took care of her husband while he was battling the coronavirus. No one had any clue what the virus was at that particular moment. “Kanye had it way at the beginning, when nobody really knew what was going on.” “It was so scary and unknown.” Kardashian West detailed how she cared for her husba...
