Multi-award-winning rapper and businessman, Kanye West is back at it again on social media.
West, who is now known as Ye, has been trending on X due to a series of posts that have both entertained and provoked his fans and critics.
Described by some as a “social media meltdown”, Ye’s posts have dominated trending topics and sparked extensive debate across the platform.
This week, attention initially centred around Bianca Censori, Ye's wife, who was the talk of the town for her bold fashion choice at the Grammy Awards.
However, as the dust settled, it became clear that Ye’s vocal proclamations were set to steal the spotlight.
The rapper's urgent plea to “Free Puff”, referring to the imprisoned music producer Sean “Diddy” Combs, drew immediate reactions.
He followed this with a rant aimed at his industry peers, saying: “All these celebrity ni**as and b****es is p***y yall a watch our brother rot and never say sh**.”

In a series of posts that followed, Ye unabashedly proclaimed his supremacy in the music industry, saying: “Im hands down better at music than anyone ever Ima get there with clothing and then with homes and cities and Ima talk my sh** the entire time.”

He continued: “All rappers want my spot. I will never not know that every rapper living wanna be me . Every rapper living wish they was Ye.”

He further added that he loves American singer and rapper Ty Dolla $ign because Ty was the only person in the industry that stood by him when he was “cancelled”.
“When I was cancelled no ni**a showed up for me other than Ty, every single other ni**a waited for it to be safe. Ni**as waited for me to be in good standing with the jews then they came around. That ni**a better than everybody anyway.”
WHEN I WAS CANCELLED NO NIGGA SHOWED UP FOR ME OTHER THAN TY EVERY SINGLE OTHER NIGGA WAITED FOR IT TO BE SAFE NIGGAS WAITED FOR ME TO BE IN GOOD STANDINGS WITH THE JEWS THEN THEY CAME AROUND THAT NIGGA BETTER THAN EVERYBODY ANYWAY

"Positive or negative your opinions don’t mean sh** to me. I don’t give a f*** what anyone likes, everything I do or make is self serving I make everything for myself. If you don’t like it I don’t give a f***.”
