Source: Kevin Rawls / Radio One Digital Continuing the tradition of 2020 exposés, Travis Scott is in the hot seat after rap fans learned one of the biggest hits off ASTROWORLD wasn’t penned from his creative genius. Over the weekend, a Twitter user with low follower and tweet counts posted a very rough reference track snippet for “SICKO MODE,” Scott and Drake’s 2018 multi-platinum smash hit. The caption claimed G.O.O.D. Music artist and songwriter CyHi The Prynce “singlehandedly wrote most of Travis Scott’s hit songs off of Astroworld.” Soon after, another snippet posted for “Coffee Bean.” HipHop-N-More did a little digging on “SICKO MODE” in Tidal and found 30 artists and composers credited on the song, include CyHi under his real name, Cydel Young. Anyone following the breadc...

And judging from the looks of this past weekend, the turbulent celebrity marriage seems to be back on a stable albeit shaky ground. This past weekend saw the return of Kanye West’s religious sect commonly known as Sunday Service and who was there to take in the musical religious experience? Why Kim Kardashian of course. TMZ is reporting that over the weekend the reality TV star joined her Presidential race spoiling husband at his Wyoming ranch along with their two children to take in the service.

It was previously reported that Kushner, a Harvard graduate who allegedly only was admitted into the university because of his father’s money despite being. a lackluster student, met with the struggle Presidential candidate while in Colorado. Mr. West had been receiving aid from known GOP operatives to get on ballots across the nation.

(Photo by Pierre Suu/GC Images) Kanye West’s social media often gives the world some insight on what is on his mind. Apparently, he is reminiscing on some of his best years. As spotted on TMZ the Chicago native’s stream of thought took over his Twitter account on August 11 and the day after. On Monday he randomly revealed that his very famous and very wealthy mother in law Kris Jenner makes him mixes. “My mother in law Kris Jenner … makes the best music playlist” he wrote. The caption took a lot of people by surprise considering that he was just slandering her a couple of weeks ago by alleging she ...
Kanye West’s presidential campaign hasn’t made any inroads since a poll last month showed him polling at 2%. According to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll, the rapper/mogul/presidential candidate is still only at 2% overall and only has 2% of the Black vote well. By comparison, the “No Opinion” option of the poll has 9%. The poll also shows that West isn’t having any impact on the race, as Joe Biden’s nine-point lead over President Donald Trump remains the same with or without West in the race. “I think a lot of people of color view Kanye’s bid for the presidency as a quixotic one, and they don’t see him as being legitimate for the office. It’s more of yet another Kanye publicity stunt,” Ron Christie, a Black Republican strategist and former aide to D...

According to TMZ, Kanye West is accusing the Democratic party of hiring a private investigator to track his signature-gathering street team as part of an “organized effort of harassment and intimidation” against his candidacy, before adding that the strategy led to nothing but wasted time after efforts led to no evidence of wrong doing. In efforts to add his name to the Wisconsin ballot, West’s campaign In addit...
Kanye West’s presidential campaign might have just received its largest blow. As Chicago Tribune reports, the rapper’s name may not appear on the ballot in his home state of Illinois. In order to put his hat in the ring as an Independent nominee, West needed to submit 2,500 written signatures from in-state voters by July 20. He filed 3,218; however, 1,928 were ruled invalid following a state elections board review. West also recently withdrew his petition to appear on the New Jersey ballot for similar reasons. Ye’s lawyers have until August 21 to defend the disputed signatures with evidence, but according to Ed Mullen, one of the lawyers challenging West’s petition, the Chicago native “is virtually certain to be kicked off the [November 3] ballot.” As Consequence of...

After making public apologies and educating himself, Cannon has seemingly put his support behind Kanye West and the Chicago producer’s 2020 presidential campaign. TMZ reports that Cannon was in Los Angeles at LAX masked up and turban intact, with Lion’s Share News making sure to get the entertainer’s thoughts on West’s longshot run at the White House this fall.

Source: The Washington Post / Getty Earlier this week it was revealed that Republican ops were behind Kanye West‘s sudden push to run for President of the United States and in the process syphoning away Black votes from Joe Biden, hence, helping Donald Trump. While even Charlamagne Tha God admitted that he might vote for Yeezus should he see his name on the ballot come November, Trump’s allies are now fearing that their new poli-trick will ultimately backfire and hurt Cheeto Jesus in the end. Though many Trump supporters are hopeful that West’s inclusion on the ballot will peel off many would-be Biden votes, Raw Story is reporting that other GOP representatives are fearing that it’s actually a double-edged sword that will end up cutting into Trump votes as well as. ...
And there you have it. After weeks of speculation, Kanye West finally admitted that throwing his name (and probably reputation) into the presidential campaign was an attempt to hurt presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s chances at winning. “I’m not denying it; I just told you,” West said in a text (yes, really) interview with Forbes, which recently spoke with West about a wide range of issues — including his life as an anti-vaxxer and experience with COVID-19. Apparently, he is now. In a tweet later on Thursday evening, West contradicted his own statement, though it is vague enough to make one wonder what he’s referring to. THE GOAL IS TO WIN — ye (@kanyewest) August 7, 2020 Asked by the publication if he knew that it wasn’t possible th...
