Ye (born Kanye Omari West on June 8, 1977) is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and fashion designer. With a career marked by dramatic change and diverse influences, he has made a significant impact in the music industry. Beyond his musical achievements, Ye has also found success in the world of fashion.
In recent years, however, Ye has faced controversy due to his public statements. In 2022, he faced widespread condemnation and lost numerous sponsors and partnerships after making a series of offensive remarks. These remarks included antisemitic statements that resulted in collaborations with Adidas, Gap, and Balenciaga being terminated.
Furthermore, in November 2022 Ye announced his intention to run for president in 2024. This decision drew criticism as he appeared publicly with Nick Fuentes—a known white supremacist—and later expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler while denying the Holocaust. He even identified himself as a Nazi—an ideology associated with hate and discrimination.

Back In Stock

'graduation' is the third installment in the kanye west series of ground breaking albums, targeting every school kid, from those that have dropped out (debut album, 'college dropout'), to those late registrants (sophmore album 'late registration'), to those that have gone on and completed school (current album 'graduation'). though technically this earmarks a junior year, west's approach to crafting this album was very much senior. kanye teams up with veterans daft punk and edwin birdsong on 'stronger' - graduation's first single; as well as enlisting a little help from current chart topper t-pain on 'good life'. chris martin of coldplay appears on a track called 'homecoming' as well. kanye has continued to prove his understanding and appreciation for a wide array of music and musical influences. what makes 'graduation' so special? like most kanye titles, his fearlessness and blindness to inhibiting boundaries, coupled with his fan driven core competence is evidence that he knows exactly what people yearn for...great music, perspective, and a voice to be heard.
