 In similar fashion as last year’s “Only One” release, (which was dedicated to his baby girl North,) Kanye West has once again decided to ring in the new year with a new song, this time going in over a sample of Drake & Future’s “Jumpman” instrumental. Over the Metro Boomin & Southside production, Yeezy raps about his relationship with Adidas & Nike, while referencing several notable names in the process, Odell Beckham, Drake, Steve Harvey, Bill Cosby, and the late DJ Timbucktu, who passed away last week. It's pretty obvious that Yeezy just recorded this based on the current events in which he touches on. Some people deduce Kanye West is ripping Bill Cosby in his new rap song which he release New Years eve.  West released his new song on SoundCloud. "Facts" was produced by Metro Boomin and Southside.    But isn't he endorsing Cosby's consent defense by suggesting Cosby angered his groupies by not remembering thei...

Time magazine unveiled its 12th annual " Time 100 Most Influential People in the World " issue on Thursday, which once again features figures ranging from politicians to pop culture icons, from North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un to Kanye West. Boundary Breaker Kanye West would be the first person to tell you he belongs on this list.  The dude doesn’t believe in false modesty, and he shouldn’t. Kanye’s belief in himself and his incredible tenacity—he performed his first single with his jaw wired shut—got him to where he is today. And he fought for his place in the cultural pantheon with a purpose. In his debut album, over a decade ago, Kanye issued what amounted to a social critique and a call to arms (with a beat): “We rappers is role models: we rap, we don’t think.” But Kanye does think. Constantly. About everything. And he wants everybody else to do the same: to engage, question, push boundaries. Now that he’s a pop-culture juggernaut, he has the platform to achi...

The  Kim Kardashian and Kanye West wedding  weekend is finally here, and the rapper and the Kardashian family are, typically, styling all over Europe. The first stop on the itinerary is a pre-wedding brunch in Paris, hosted by designer  Valentino Garavano  at his  17th-century château . For his part, Kanye showed out with a dope formal look that still bears that signature Yeezy twist—a midnight blue tux with contrasting lapels, a leather button-up shirt, and air-tie, all paired with some Saint Laurent Bluchers.  The fact that Kanye wore a tuxedo from Valentino's spring/summer 2014 collection is just one style lesson we learned from the brunch that went down at the designer's plush 17th century estate, along with a bunch of other amazing moments. The weekend is reportedly jam-packed with wedding-related events so keep it locked here for updates on what will surely be a weekend where Kanye shows out. ...

You have to be a special kind of girl to get Christmas gifts from  Kanye West , and you’d have to be  Kim Kardashian  to actually get away with being able to wear them. Yesterday while the world was hitting the stores to return their Christmas gifts, KimYe were out buying more as they hit up a sport store in Los Angeles. Kim was beaming in her shopping get up that included a  Céline Fall 2013 Coat paired with white Denim Skinnies, $618 Saint Laurent Paris Suede Pumps, and the icing on the cake, an Hermés Custom  George Condo  Hand Painted Birkin. If the work of art looks familiar, it’s because Condo is the artist that produced  the visuals for Kanye’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album , the same one that was banned from Walmart and Target that resulted in the blurred cover Kanye eventually released. Yeezy’s Twitter Icon is also a work of art from Condo as the artist has prior produced 5 pieces for Yeezy, making th...
