According to a TikTok star Mufasa, if you hang out with Kanye—he just might not let you go home.

The TikTok sensation spoke with Daily Star and revealed that Kanye West flew him out to his infamous ranch.

The online star, who rose to fame with the “car dance” admitted that he “hung out with West a few times” and the hitmaker “didn’t want him to leave”

The TikTok star said: “Yeah, some celebs have reached out [to me]. One celebrity I got to hang out with was Kanye. He flew me out for a week to his ranch, we got to hang out and chat about many things.”

Mufasa continued: “He didn’t want me to leave but I had to fly out. It was my birthday weekend so I wanted to celebrate with my family and my team. We hung out a few times after that.”

The star – real name Jeff Obeng – then went on to explain what meeting the rap icon was like and how Kanye spends his day-to-day life.

Obeng revealed: “We talked about everything but it wasn’t really what he said that put a battery in my back. It was more of what he was doing – one moment he would make clothes, then an hour later he made music and then he would have a board meeting all in the same space.”

“He made me realise I wasn’t working hard enough!”

When asked what Kanye himself was like, Mufasa simply said that “Kanye was Kanye” and praised his inspirational work ethic.

He gushed: “Kanye was very driven and it’s like you can’t tell him nothing. If he says he’s going to achieve something, he will get it done – one way or another.”

The viral star also admitted that he’s had “quite a handful of celebrities” reach out to him but in terms of music, he’s still waiting for the right collaboration to come about.

Obeng explained: “They ask me to do videos for them or with them all the time, but I’m trying to evolve from just doing skits. I’m doing different things now. I don’t want to be 80 years old dancing outside of a car!”

Mufasa’s new single “World Needs Love” is out now and the star hopes that his “good energy only” vibes will “bring the fun back into house music”.

Kanye West Dodges Battery Charge For Throwing Woman’s Phone

After being under investigation for an alleged battery when a video surfaced of music and fashion mogul Kanye West grabbing a woman’s cell phone, it is now being reported that he will not face charges from that incident.

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department was investigating West when the video showed him tossing her phone into the street after he approached her about filming him as he was leaving his daughter North’s basketball game.

In the video, Kanye can be heard saying, “Y’all ain’t gonna run up on me like that. If I say stop”…”stop with your cameras.”

Known for his numerous run-ins with paparazzi that sometimes turn physical for Ye, this incident is just another win for Kanye’s fight for privacy as a celebrity. Last year, he avoided another battery charge after he was accused of punching a photographer, leaving him on the ground unconscious. Yeezy even joked about the confrontation on Jimmy Kimmel, saying, “that covid mask couldn’t stop that right hook.”

Kanye West Dodges Charges In Phone Snatch And Toss Incident

Kanye West George Floyd

A couple of months ago, a video circulated of an irate Kanye West reaching into a woman’s car, grabbing her phone, then throwing it. It was announced yesterday that Ye will not be facing any charges for the incident.

According to Ventura County District Attorney’s Office documents obtained by TMZ on Wednesday, March 15, the woman’s phone only suffered minor damage, and the only thing that was affected was the $30 case on the phone. The woman also failed to press charges against Kanye.

When the incident occurred, Kanye believed the woman to be a paparazzi that was following him frim his daughter North’s basketball game. However, it was never confirmed whether she was a hired paparazzi.

A bystander caught the confrontation on camera as well, where you can hear Ye saying to the woman, “you didn’t have to run up on me like that.” The woman responded, “I wasn’t running. I wasn’t running – but Kanye you’re a celebrity. Ye then told the lady, “If I say stop, stop with your cameras!” Ye then grabbed the woman’s phone and tossed it

Only a few weeks after the phone incident, Kanye was seen going into the West Hollywood Sherriff’s Department where he reportedly asked them to take care of the paparazzi following him.

Kanye West Won’t Be Charged For Throwing Paparazzi’s Phone: Report

by

We haven’t heard much from Kanye West besides his paparazzi run-ins. On more than one occasion in recent months, West has confronted photogs who have continued to follow his every move. Many, if not all, are hoping to catch Ye traveling around with his rumored wife, Bianca Censori. The pair are said to have privately wed months ago, not long after West’s divorce from Kim Kardashian was finalized. Neither the Rap icon nor his purported second wife has addressed the reports, but in his spats with the paparazzo, West has referred to Censori as his bride.

One of these arguments occurred in January when West was reportedly near where his daughter, North West, was playing basketball. The paparazzi were following West closely in their vehicles, and that didn’t sit well with the devoted dad. A video of the confrontation made its way online, and it showed West stopping traffic in the middle of the street and speaking with the woman as she continued to film from her car. “Y’all not gon’ run up on me like that,” he said pointedly. He told her to stop filming, but she argued he was a celebrity. Then, the rapper grabbed her phone from her hand and tossed it.

Kanye West Avoids Charges

According to an update provided by TMZ, Kanye will avoid charges. The outlet stated that the Ventura County District Attorney’s office did share a press release about the incident stating they wouldn’t pursue legal action against West. The phone in question only “suffered minor damage,” specifically the $30 case encompassing the device. Additionally, the woman involved told the authorities she didn’t want to press charges.

In a separate incident, during a late-night stop, West and Censori were being followed by a different photographer. It was something that irked the music star, and he quickly approached the man in waiting. Once again, the paparazzo defended his actions, stating that he wasn’t close to the couple and only wanted to take a few photos. West wasn’t moved, replying that he nor Censori wanted to be filmed by strangers tailing them wherever they went.

What’s Next, Ye?

As the future of Yeezy hangs in the balance—or as Adidas tries to figure out how they will unload their product—people have been waiting for more news from Kanye West. It’s rumored that Ye is laying low and plotting his next political move as campaigns for the 2024 Presidential Election quickly approaches. Yet, West can’t get from under that scandalous Nazi propaganda run he had, but his supporters continue to stand by his side.

Kanye West Is Working On New Documentary Only Using iPhone Footage, Claims Wallo267

by

Kanye West has kept to himself over the past few months, for the most part. Following a tumultuous end to 2022, Ye seemingly decided to take a break from the media circuit and social media which undoubtedly got him into hot water. However, during his recent public outings, he had his phone in his hand. Though that’s rather common for most people living in the 21st-century world, Ye has bigger plans, according to Wallo267.

The Million Dollaz Worth Of Game co-host recently detailed a meeting he had with Kanye West. Wallo explained that he met a producer whose job was to solely film Ye with an iPhone. The footage apparently is being used for a new documentary on the Yeezy founder. “I was with Ye months ago. This mothaf*cka had a white bull, right? Me and this bull talkin’. This white bull got an iPhone that’s all day… He documenting everything. This gon’ be the documentary, the iPhone,” he said holding up his iPhone. 

Kanye West’s Documentary Teaches Wallo A Valuable Lesson

Wallo explained that the individual he spoke to has “hard drives of hard drives” of content surrounding Ye. “When I’m talkin’ to Ye, Ye’s like, ‘Do you mind if I record this?’ Nah, he could record,” he recalled. “He like this all day, he don’t say nothing,” Wallo said, mimicking the videographer’s actions as he held up his phone. Though Wallo didn’t get the scoop on when this documentary might drop, he explained that it was impressive to see this type of dedication. Ultimately, Wallo said that witnessing the documentary being filmed became a valuable lesson to “document everything.” 

It will certainly be interesting to see how this documentary turns out. Last year, Netflix debuted the three-part Jeen-Yuhs documentary, directed by Coodie Simmons and Chike Ozah, who began documentary Kanye’s career before he signed with Roc-A-Fella. However, Ye took issue with the final product, demanding Netflix and the directors to give him access to the editing room so he could have the final say in what is and isn’t included. Ultimately, Coodie and Chike refused to give Ye creative control of their project. 

Jay Electronica Shows Love Towards Kanye, Says He ‘Can’t Wait’ For His Next Venture

Jay Electronica took to Twitter yesterday where he let off a string of MANY tweets. The A Written Testimony rapper went on a rant asking fellow musicians if they believed in God, expressing his admiration for Louis Farrakhan, and even voiced his support for Kanye West. In his tweet about Kanye, he wrote that he can’t wait for what the multi-hyphenate has up his sleeve next.

“I can’t wait for Ye to bust y’all heads wide open w his next maneuver. Godspeed Ye,” he wrote on Twitter.

Following his tweet for Kanye, he then called on NBA Youngboy to join the Nation Of Islam. “Tell NBA Youngboy i said come to Islam and be the great Commander of me God intends for you,” he tweeted.

Throughout his Twitter rant, Jay Electronica made numerous references to the “Synogauge Of Satan,” an anti-semitic phrase used to liken Jewish people to Satan. Electronica then to took time in his rant to address his anti-semitic allegations, even saying that hating on his is antisemitic because his grandmother was Semitic. “PS, if you hate on me, tha’s antisemitic. Word to my Semitic grandmother,” he tweeted.

Kanye West Consulted Elon Musk On Plans To Build “Texas Utopia”: Report

by

Over the years, Kanye West expressed his desire to build his own utopian community, which appears to be the same thing that Elon Musk plans on doing in Texas. Per WSJ, Musk acquired 3,500 acres of land just outside of Austin. The SpaceX founder plans on turning the plot of land into “a sort of Texas utopia along the Colorado River, where his employees could live and work” near the facilities for SpaceX and Boring Co. This would reportedly allow Musk to develop his own regulations on the land which would help speed up his plans.

Apparently, Elon Musk consulted Kanye West about building the Texas town. According to WSJ, Ye, and Elon Musk held a meeting in 2022 to discuss these plans. Details surrounding the meeting remain unclear but Ye’s expressed his fondness of Musk’s innovations and vice versa. During a Q&A at SXSW a few years back, Musk named West as a person that inspires him. With that said, it’s no surprise that he would’ve wanted Ye’s thoughts on his Texas town.

Kanye & Elon Musk’s Fall Out

At this point, it’s unclear when the meeting took place. Kanye West and Elon Musk haven’t necessarily seen eye-to-eye in recent times due to the former’s anti-Semitic comments. Musk suspended Ye from Twitter for posting a swastika on his page in the midst of his hateful 2022 tirade. Musk also said that he “personally wanted to punch” Ye over his spree of anti-Jewish comments that ultimately led to Adidas and GAP parting ways with the artist.

In response to the suspension, Ye questioned whether Elon Musk was a “genetic hybrid” of a Chinese genius and a South African model. “Take a Chinese genius and mate them with a South African super model, and we have an Elon,” he said. “​​I say an Elon because they probably made 10 to 30 Elon’s and he’s the first genetic hybrid that stuck.” We’ll keep you posted on any more details surrounding Ye and Elon Musk’s meeting. Would you live in Elon Musk’s “Texas utopia”? Let us know in the comment section below.

Kanye West & Bianca Censori Spend The Day With North West At Universal Studios

by

North West has two of the most famous parents in the world, meaning she’s been given plenty of exciting opportunities throughout her life. For example, she performed with “Chandelier” singer Sia this past Christmas at her family’s holiday party. More recently, her mom, Kim Kardashian, arranged for her to meet one of her idols – Ice Spice. The 23-year-old and her new friend posted several TikTok videos together last weekend, causing a serious stir online.

In the various videos, North and a few of her young friends groove along with the Like..? hitmaker’s “In Ha Mood” and “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2” tracks. The eldest Kardashian-West child also revealed another portrait she drew of Spice, along with a message for followers dishing that she’s as sweet in person as she seems in the media. In the hours after the TikToks went up, the 9-year-old returned with more content, this time lip-syncing along to the same songs while dressed as the redheaded lyricist, curly wig and all.

North’s Ice Spice Obsession

Though Kardashian and her daughter’s joint account has the comment section turned off, the videos continued to recirculate on social media and generate plenty of discourse. Specifically, some pointed out that North’s dad, Kanye West, may have had a point in wanting his daughter to stay off TikTok. Others, however, argued that the father of four got what was coming to him as karma for his own previous troubling actions.

Regardless of North West’s Ice Spice imitations shedding some negative light on the family, she and Ye are still stepping out in public to enjoy their time together. On Thursday (March 9), the “Ghost Town” artist was seen at Universal Studios Hollywood with his firstborn, as well as his new wife, Bianca Censori. They spent their time at the theme park checking out carnival games and shooting some hoops, Ye keeping a low profile with a ski mask covering his face.

Ye’s Family Fun Day

The newlyweds have been keeping to themselves lately, though this isn’t the first time we’ve seen them take North out. In late January, the Wests headed to NOBU for a luxurious dinner date, and we’ve since seen Censori and her man do some shopping at Balenciaga. At this time, little still remains known about their relationship and the legal technicalities of their marriage.

Still, seeing the Yeezy founder bring his partner around one of his children is certainly a good sign for their relationship. It’s unclear if the Australian architect has met his three other little ones – Saint, Chicago, and Psalm – just yet. Check back in with HNHH later for any updates on the couple and your other favourite celebrities.
