Billionaire hip-hop artist and fashion designer Ye — who legally changed his name from Kanye West last year — has continued his spiral into racist and disturbing remarks with a new interview. As Blavity previously reported, Ye faced a series of controversies that began when he prominently featured shirts with the “White Lives Matter” — a racist slogan used to detract from the Black Lives Matter movement — in a recent fashion show. He then made a series of racist and anti-Semitic remarks on social media. After several social media bans and an appearance on Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s show, Ye took his rants to N.O.R.E.’S Drink Champs podcast series for an episode that was posted over the weekend and has drawn huge criticism for Ye and those around him.
