Kanye West Changes Name To “Ye”

Kanye West has change his name to Ye. But on political matters, nothing has changed for the pro-Trump rapper.

“The being formally (sic) known as Kanye West. I am Ye,” he wrote on Twitter.

Ye has long been a nickname for West, along with Yeezy, and he chose “Ye” as the title of his last album.

He has previously said that he found a spiritual significance to “Ye” — the plural or formal version of the second-person pronoun in Middle English — as he so frequently read it in the Bible.

West or, rather, Ye — announced the name change shortly before he appeared on “Saturday Night Live,” the widely watched television skit show.

He performed with fellow rapper Lil Pump dressed as water bottles, drawing an overwhelmingly negative reaction on social media where a number of professed fans questioned his creative direction.

“So many times I talk to a white person about this and they say, ‘How could you like Trump? He’s racist,’” West said, according to footage posted on Instagram by comedian Chris Rock.
