The information came from TMZ. They revealed a copy of Kanye’s request for a name change. If the judge passes it, Kanye West should be all set with his new name. The passing is highly likely to happen “unless there’s evidence a name change is designed to commit fraud.” Considering Kanye West has no bad intentions, he’s soon to become Ye.
In an interview for Big Boy’s Neighborhood, Kanye explained what “Ye” means to him. He said it’s the most rapid word in the Bible, and it means “you.” By taking a name, which means “You or Us,” Kanye is making himself a “reflection of the society.”
Ye’s New Album
Meanwhile, Kanye West’s or Ye’s new album release date is now August 27th. As always, the announcement of Kanye’s new album came in with a lot of media attention. On top of multiple albums, postpones, and shows, the rapper has recently doxed Drake.
Donda has already had several live streams. Kanye postponed the album several times since July 23rd. Kanye had performance shows instead. One of them broke Apple Music’s streaming record.
Amidst album preparations, Ye has also starred in the Beats Headphones commercial. His featuring with Dr. Dre from the new album was also used for the ad. The video also features track star Sha’Carri Richardson.
Every time Kanye West releases an album, some fuzz in the media takes place. One can only expect if the new album will actually release on 27th or more backlash happens instead.
