    Ye previously had problems with Nicki over the record

    Kanye West points his finger at Ice Spice’s people for declining to clear her verse on “New Body.” The rapper made the accusation on Instagram stories this week.

    “ICE SPICE SENT A VERSE IN FOR NEW BODY NOW HER TEAM IS SAYING WE CAN’T USE IT,” Ye’s post read.

    During one of the listening events for Vultures 1 in December, Ye also torched Nicki Minaj for refusing to clear the same song. “I made that girl rewrite her verse three times for ‘Monster,’” Ye said, before adding, “I supported her career. So, I don’t know what it is.”

    In response, Nicki said during an Instagram live stream: “Now regarding Kanye, that train has left the station,” she explained. “No disrespect in any way, I just put out a brand new album. Why would I put out a song that’s been out for three years? Come on guys.”

    Kanye West on his current relationship with Jesus – ‘Them prayers ain’t working’

    Ye has ‘issues’ with Christ

    Kanye West and Ty Dollar $ign recently appeared on an interview with the Big Boy TV where the former revealed that he has problems with Jesus.

    “I have my issues with Jesus. There’s a lot of stuff I went through, that I prayed, and I ain’t see Jesus show up,” Ye explained. “I had to put my experience in this world, my experience with my children, my experience with other people, my experience with my account, my experience with my brand, and my experience with the level of music that I was dealing with in my own hands.

    “A lot of times I feel like in our society, in America, people, Christians, we depend on Jesus so much that we won’t put in the work ourselves. The main thing I don’t rock with is like, ‘I’m gonna pray for you.’ It’s just like, you can actually physically do something yourself, too, more than just praying.”

    He continued, “We’re so in this mentality that that’s all that needs to happen, but we ain’t praying our way out of prison, we ain’t paying our way out of the abortion clinics, we ain’t praying our way to get our land back that was always ours after gentrification, after the Harlem Renaissance and Black Wall Street was burnt to the ground. Them prayers ain’t working.”

    “Listen YE is my brother in real life.. But I ain’t changing my date for nuffin in the world. I wish gang da best & I kno he feel da same FEB 9 PAIN & LOVE 2,” Fivio wrote.


  • Lil Dicky doesn’t think Kanye West is actually antisemitic

    Lil Dicky doesn’t think Kanye West is actually antisemitic

    Dicky sees Ye as a good person

    Lil Dicky recently appeared on Flagrant where he revealed his thoughts about Ye’s anti-Jewish remarks. The rapper, who is Jewish himself, recalled playing basketball with Ye for a year on 2017 learned how “nice” and “sweet” he was.

    “I obviously see all the things and I was surprised because I don’t think in his heart that Kanye dislikes Jewish people,” he explained. “I know he knows I’m Jewish, I know he likes me. In my heart I feel like he probably said something and and it was the wrong thing, I’m sure.

    “I’m not denying that he’ll say the wrong thing often. I think he might have said the wrong thing, people got outraged. I think the thing that he can’t stand the most is when people tell him what he can or cannot say. And he leaned into it.”

    He added, “And that’s the reality. Now I don’t think you should be leaning into it. I’m not saying what he did is right. I think that there should be a sensitivity to Jewish people. But this is really me theorizing. I’m not that close to the situation. I played basketball with him for a year. But let me tell ya, he was the sweetest man. And I watched him interact with a variety of different people being really nice.”

    Travis brought out Ye at his Circus Maximus Tour

    Travis Scott performed at Orlando’s Kia Center Wednesday night (January 31) as part of his Circus Maximus Tour. The show was no ordinary one.

    Ye performed tracks like “Runaway,” “Fade,” “Can’t Tell Me Nothing,” “Father Stretch My Hands” and others.

    Travis and Ye have been close since the former’s breakout days. In the early stages of the Utopia hit-maker’s career, Ye took him under his wing and offered him a publishing deal on G.O.O.D Music as an in-house producer.

  • Dame Dash believes Kanye West’s controversial behaviour is a result of bipolar condition

    Dame Dash believes Kanye West’s controversial behaviour is a result of bipolar condition

    Dame Dash says Ye shouldn’t be on camera when ‘triggered’

    Dame Dash is part of the movement that believes Kanye West’s controversial and often strange behaviour is a rendering of his bipolar condition.

    “Now you know that man is bipolar,” Dame said in an interview on Willie D Live. “Why would you bring him to TMZ and ask him questions when you know he’s triggered? He’s clinically bipolar.

    “I say slavery is a choice right now, but not slavery was a choice back then, right now. For us to think that there are masters is a choice right now, but I don’t think he meant back then,” he added.

    “Has anybody ever dealt with somebody that’s bipolar?” Dame went on. “The one thing you don’t do when someone’s triggered is put them in front of cameras. The most dangerous thing for a bipolar person is money. A billionaire bipolar means while you’re bipolar, everyone’s still listening to you. A broke bipolar, they’re putting you in the room until the ambulance comes.”
