Kanye West has come out of a long period of musical hiatus after he was ousted from the industry for his erratic behavior. The rapper was heavily criticized for his anti-Semitic comments in 2022. Consequently, many brands like Vogue, Balenciaga, and Adidas severed ties with the rapper, and he went completely under the radar after spewing hate against the Jews.
Before the hate train, Kanye West released his last album in 2021, titled ‘Donda,’ which was released in two parts. He held several listening parties for the same across the US. He released the second part of the album exclusively on Stem Player. After two years, Ye has come out with a new album with TY Dolla $ign titled ‘Vultures’. During the recent listening party for the album in Miami, the rapper came out wearing a Ku Klux Klan-inspired outfit, for which he was heavily trolled.

TY Dolla $ign and Kanye West have finally given a glimpse of their much-awaited album titled ‘Vultures’. There were many media reports about the album-making with Ye and TY Dolla Sign. The ‘Ego Death’ rappers were supposed to hold the listening party in Italy at the Reggio Emilia stadium; however, due to Ye’s anti-Semitism, the authorities barred them from performing there.
So, after months of hype leading to ‘Vultures’, TY Dolla $ign and Kanye West gave a glimpse into the album at the ‘Vultures Rave’ party in Miami. They invited artists like Bump J, Offset, Lil Durk, and others to perform with them at the party.
The album features Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj, and other artists. Apart from the rapper sharing a heartfelt moment with his daughter, North West, he came under fire for his choice of outfit again.
During Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s holiday in Italy, the couple got into trouble for their risque outfits. Now, during the listening party, the ‘College Dropout’ rapper created controversy by wearing a black hoodie inspired by the infamous Ku Klux Klan outfit. At the concert in Wynwood Marketplace, Kanye’s daughter also accompanied him, which became a bigger problem for the netizens.

If a #Jewish person rapped about black people with just one offensive derogatory word while wearing a white KKK hood then cancel culture and mainstream media would be all over it! #KanyeWest #Israel pic.twitter.com/pkydXS75g7
