Kanye West came through for A$AP Bari with a new Maybach truck after the designer was involved in a collision. The A$AP Mob member and co-founder of the clothing brand VLONE posted a video of the new car on Instagram, thanking Kanye for the generous gift.
“Yo, this n***a Ye bought me a new f****ng Maybach, yo!”, he announced. “If you know me, you know I crashed my Maybach two days ago, bro! This n***a bought me a new Maybach truck, bruh. What the f**k is going on right now…I’m ’bout to cry, bro.”
Screenshots of DMs from Kanye West were also posted by A$AP Bari, along with photos of the old Maybach. The pictures show the front end of the car mangled after a nasty collision.

Kanye West’s history with A$AP Bari
Kanye West has been a loyal friend to A$AP Bari despite controversy. After the designer was arrested in 2018 on sexual assault charges, Ye expressed his support for Bari on Twitter. However, Bari would plead guilty to the charges.
“Bari challenged me when no one else did and when he got in trouble I was scared to say he was my friend just like I did with [XXXTentacion] and that was some pu**y sh*t on my part,” the rapper wrote. “I let the perception and the robots control me. That’s the true sunken place.”
However, Ye’s association with the designer didn’t sit well with his inner circle. According to a 2019 report from The Blast, the Chicago rapper’s advisors suggested that he distance himself from Bari, both personally and professionally, amidst the allegations.
