Kanye West Wears Face Mask For Date Night With Bianca Censori

by

Kanye West went on a date night with his new wife Bianca Censori this week, although he clearly wanted to go incognito. Moreover, the Chicago rapper and his wife went to Beauty & Essex restaurant in Hollywood on Tuesday night (January 31). However, Ye wore a full-covering black face mask when they exited, save for the two small holes for his eyes. Also, the couple both wore all-black ensembles. On one hand, the “Yikes” artist wore a large black coat with long pants and big black boots. Meanwhile, Censori wore a black see-through dress with long, beige fur boots.

Furthermore, the Yeezy mogul’s mate stared at her phone in most pictures from the paparazzi, so their emotions were under wraps. In fact, Kanye reportedly said nothing to photographers when they left the restaurant and got in their car. After all, this date night follows an incident from a couple of days ago where Ye threw a woman’s phone. Moreover, she was recording the artist along with a few other people who spotted him leaving his daughter North’s basketball game. As a result of the confrontation, authorities are investigating Ye for alleged battery. Even his ex-wife Kim Kardashian refused to comment on the situation.

However, the tale of Kanye West and Bianca Censori developed about as quickly as it broke. Since the reveal of their marriage a couple of weeks ago, more news came out concerning Kanye’s controversies. For example, during a Balenciaga shopping spree with Censori, Ye wore a German Reich-inspired shirt. While he took a small break from the public eye, the news of his marriage stirred the pot again. Still, the high-profile coverage of their every move, as exhausting as it may be for viewers and readers, caused other problems.

Moreover, Australian authorities stated that they might deny Kanye entry into the country to visit his wife’s family. While reports indicated that he ended up arriving, various Jewish organizations from the nation spoke out against his visit. What’s more is that the Chicago rapper’s presidential campaign is reportedly nowhere close to getting in motion. Reportedly, no one’s donated to the campaign yet, but stay tuned to HNHH for what’s next for Kanye West.

Kanye West & Nick Fuentes Condemned By Republican Party For Antisemitism

by

The Republican National Committee recently denounced Kanye West and white nationalist Nick Fuentes for using their platforms to spread antisemitic rhetoric. Moreover, they approved a resolution on Friday (January 27) condemning “all forms” of antisemitism, including from within the party. Furthermore, the GOP committee members approved the document on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

“Antisemitism has no place in our political party, American politics or any political discourse,” the resolution read. Moreover, it specifically mentioned Fuentes and Ye as harmful contributors to recent and dangerous anti-semitic behavior. Both right-wing celebrities recently dined with former president Donald Trump, who claimed that he wasn’t aware of Fuentes’ participation. However, Trump doesn’t show up in the document, though they do criticize some House Democrats.

Moreover, pretty much everyone on the political spectrum criticized the encounter with Trump. Whereas the left saw yet another example of all three men’s bigotry, the right called Trump out for aligning with his most extreme and radical of supporters.

However, the Chicago artist’s public escapades shifted significantly over the past few weeks. Well, shifted in content, at least, not necessarily in public opinion. After his marriage to Yeezy employee Bianca Censori, he drew a lot of public flack for his German Reich wardrobe and treatment of paparazzi.

In fact, authorities are reportedly investigating the 45-year-old rapper for battery after he threw a woman’s phone away. Moreover, the woman recorded Ye after leaving his daughter North’s basketball game.

“You didn’t have to run up on me like that,” West told a woman recording from inside her car. “If I say stop, stop with your cameras!”

Meanwhile, his public meltdowns also caused Australian authorities to doubt his visit to the country to meet his wife’s family. “People like that who’ve applied for visas to get into Australia in the past have been rejected,” Minister for Education Jason Clare stated. “I expect that if he does apply he would have to go through the same process and answer the same questions that they did.”

Still, what do you think of the Republican Party denouncing Kanye West, Nick Fuentes, and all forms of antisemitism? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, log back into HNHH for the latest news on Kanye West.

Kanye West Asked Uncle Murda To Write A Verse For Him

by

Uncle Murda recently revealed that Kanye West asked him for help when writing a verse. Moreover, the alleged assist happened alongside Big Sean and record executive Steve Stoute. Despite the Chicago rapper’s public reckoning as of late, tales of his studio exploits and team-ups are always curious.

“You wrote s**t for Kanye?” DJ Superstar Jay asked Uncle Murda in an interview. “You was in the writer’s room?”

“Hold on, hold up. I ain’t- he had me starting to write,” the New York MC explained. It was me and Big Sean. This was the first day I was f***ing with the n***a. Word. That’s why I know Big Sean was really pissed off at the n***a, you know what I’m saying, when they had their issues.

“I remember just being in the studio and Ye was like ‘Damn, this beat,’” he continued. “He was like ‘Yo, go ahead, try to put something together.’ He called Big Sean like ‘Yo, try to work on this beat. It’s been f***ing with me for the last few days. I can’t come up with nothing.’ Like, n***a wanted me to write already? No blunt or nothing? Just like, ‘Go!’ And it was him and Steve Stoute. I’ll never forget.”

Moreover, this interaction is all the funnier when you consider Uncle Murda’s most recent output. His annual “Rap Up” diss turned heads last year with shots towards the “Off The Grid” artist. Also, artists like Freddie Gibbs responded to receiving hits on the track, though Ye never did.

However, the diss track gave us some more noteworthy responses. Bobby Shmurda reacted to Murda’s mention in a slightly tongue-in-cheek way, probably trying to clean up some earlier mistakes.

“Murda, I’m a changed man, I’m a changed man, I’m different, man. I’m tryna change, Murda, I ain’t tryna boom nobody no more,” Shmurda stated via Instagram. Clearly the 42-year-old’s got plenty of material to work with, even to donate to the Yeezy mogul.

Still, what do you think of Uncle Murda helping Kanye out with a verse? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, stay tuned to HNHH for more curious hip-hop interactions and favors.

Kanye West’s Lawyers Use Newspaper Ads To Cut Ties With Him

by

While Ye’s public statements have caught him in hot water, his avoidance of legal issues mustn’t be understated. Moreover, lawyers putting out newspaper ads to rid themselves of Kanye West as a client. According to legal documents obtained by AllHipHop, lawsuits against him will continue regardless of his presence.

However, readers might think that Kanye hasn’t been all that hard to find. After all, news recently broke of his secret marriage to Yeezy architectural designer Bianca Censori. Still, this recent development represents a time in which lawyers are unable to find the rapper. Now, the Greenberg Traurig Law Firm seeks to publish advertisements of a withdrawal order in two L.A.-area newspapers. Given this “multi-prong approach,” according to the firm, they can find Kanye more easily.

“Publication of the Withdrawal Order’s contents in two Los Angeles-area newspapers, where Ye appears to reside, will also apprise him of the Withdrawal Order,” the documents stated. “Given Ye’s public status, publication of the Withdrawal Order will likely garner significant media attention, resulting in broader publication and provide an even greater likelihood of apprising Ye of the Order.”

Furthermore, Greenberg Traurig represented the Chicago artist against Ultra International Music Publishing. However, in December of last year, the New York City-based firm requested an extension to serve West as a client after dropping him. Attorneys had to serve him before a copyright infringement case against him could proceed.

Moreover, Judge Analisa Torres granted their motion to drop Ye as a client in November of last year. Also, she ordered the firm to serve him a court order firsthand by December 14th 2022. Apparently, that’s when the trouble began.

While this developed, Kanye’s ex-business manager Thomas St. John claimed he was missing. After rumors ran rampant about his location, news of his new wife broke. Still, they didn’t get a marriage license, so their union is committed, yet not legally bound. Prior to this, his divorce from Kim Kardashian finalized in November.

What do you think of Kanye West’s lawyers using newspaper ads to get to him? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest on Kanye West.

Jewish Man Assaulted In New York, Attacker Yells “Kanye 2024”

by

Kanye West’s rants and public statements as of late dangerously inspired more direct and hateful actions in others. According to the New York Police Department, a man in his mid-40s attacked a 63-year-old Jewish man in Central Park. On Wednesday (December 14th), the assailant struck the other man from behind, resulting in a broken hand, chipped tooth, and other injuries. Reportedly, the attacker yelled antisemitic slurs and shouted “Kanye 2024.” Afterwards, he escaped on a bicycle with a cart attached and a sign that read “Hungry Disabled.” The assailant is still at large, though fortunately the assaulted is in stable condition.

NYPD called this an antisemitic incident upfront. Moreover, organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League warned media outlets of the effects of Kanye’s rhetoric. Scott Richman, who leads the League’s New York/New Jersey division, recently spoke to CNN about these instigations.

“When public figures with huge platforms fan the flames of antisemitism, people will copy it and begin to think it’s normal,” Richman told the outlet.

Furthermore, the city’s police department is investigating this case as a hate crime. They’ve requested assistance from the public in identifying the assailant, who they described as having light complexion, a brown jacket, a multi-colored hat, beige pants, and white sneakers.

ABC7 reported a 70 percent increase in hate crimes in New York City last month compared to November 2021. Also, antisemitic attacks rose by 125 percent in this time frame. The NYPD shared data that recorded 45 hate crimes last November, and 20 in November of last year.

However, this is not the first time that Kanye West’s praise of Nazis and attacks toward the Jewish community were directly instigative. A group of antisemites gathered on a Los Angeles freeway shouting hateful speech and brandishing signs. One of them read “Kanye is right about the Jews.”

The Anti-Defamation League’s CEO, Jonathan Greenblatt, called Ye’s tirades “vicious.” In addition, the Republican Jewish Coalition “vehemently condemned” the artist and urged public servants and political leaders to “reject these messages of hate.” Moreover, these condemnations come after brands like Adidas cut ties with him and his university revoked his honorary degree.

Meek Mill Responds To Kanye West

by

With Ye throwing shots and shots left and right, at least a few people caught in the crossfire are bound to respond. Meek Mill recently responded to Kanye West’s jabs at him during a recent appearance on the platform Clubhouse. Amid many other users and commentators, the Chicago rapper couldn’t stop laughing at Meek criticizing him. The Philly rapper spoke out against Kanye using a “White Lives Matter” shirt, to which Ye could only laugh.

“Why I made somebody think that Meek Mill could say something to me?” the fashion designer said while laughing uncontrollably. “No, this is the funniest thing of everything. I’m about to start crying laughing. Sorry- no I’m literally in tears.”

While many focused on Kanye’s controversial statements, a few people online threw their hat into this ring. On one hand, many defended Meek for standing up against that behavior, but people sent their fair share of hate as well. Regardless, he recently took to Twitter to voice his thoughts on the matter, at least somewhat.

“Never lost my mind for fame or money…” he wrote. “I still have my family… my people respect me… I’m freeing people from prison, doing community service all month with children up close and personal… I’m chilling wit my son and his friends today… y’all on clubhouse at 50 lol.”

Moreover, this isn’t the first time that Meek has criticized Kanye this year, or vice versa. In fact, Funk Flex urged the “Dreams and Nightmares” rapper to go after Ye following his Drink Champs interview. He also said Kanye “sold his soul” on his freestyle on DJ Khaled’s GOD DID and also called him “crazy and lame.”

“I don’t got no celebrity friends,” Kanye said on Drink Champs. “Because when I was on TV on Instagram saying, ‘I don’t know where my child is,’ and ‘the Kardashians kidnapped my daughter in public,’ and ‘I didn’t have the address to my child,’ none of these n***as that want to say something now…as far as Meek Mills, Puff Daddy, all you fake hard n***as, f**k you. You can’t shoot nobody anyway.”

What do you think of Meek’s response to Kanye? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned to HNHH for more back-and-forths.

Kanye West Named “Antisemite Of The Year” By Watchdog Org

by

As the year ends, anyone who caught a Ye headline in that time is likely reflecting on his actions. StopAntisemitism, a watchdog group, named Kanye West the “antisemite of the year” after 10,000 online votes. Moreover, the title comes as a result of his controversial statements on Jewish people, the media, and Nazi Germany. While he recently lost his honorary degree, it’s clear why many would give this title to the Chicago rapper.

In a statement to TMZ, the non-profit’s Executive Director Liora Rez elaborated on the dangers of Kanye’s rhetoric. Most recently, the former Adidas collaborator shared new music referencing the “Deathcon” tweet. Also, far-right commentator Alex Jones slammed his obsession with Hitler. As he continues to associate with harmful media figures and spew more misconceptions, groups like StopAntisemitism work to dispel them.

“Kanye uses his celebrity platform to push dangerous antisemitic tropes about Jews and power and he refuses to stop,” Rez told TMZ. “His continuous onslaught of bigoted statements has resulted in horrific antisemitic acts perpetrated by white supremacists, Black Hebrew Israelites, and other fringe groups looking to cause Jews harm.

“Jew hatred is already out of control in the United States,” she added. “The last thing we need is a celebrity like Kanye to add fuel to that fire.”

Unfortunately, Kanye’s “antisemite of the year” comments have caused more hateful actions against the Jewish community. For example, a group on an L.A. freeway held up a sign that read “Kanye is right about the Jews.” Later, demonstrators perpetrated hateful language and allegedly gave Nazi salutes.

At face value, Kanye has pushed back on some of that, albeit once confronted by Piers Morgan in particular. Moreover, he told the TV host that he only had ill will towards Jewish people who mistreated him in the industry. However, he followed such apologies with praise for Adolf Hitler and saying Jewish people should “forgive’ him. Then, he made these statements to many far-right figures, who have either since criticized them or fueled the bigoted fire. Either way, he’s not showing any sign of stopping, which only gets more dangerous.
