Kanye West, now known as Ye, has been facing a series of challenges and controversies in recent times. Here are some of the key events that have occurred:
-
Kanye West lost his billionaire status after Forbes revised its estimate of his net worth, following controversies and the termination of his partnership with Adidas, which accounted for a reported $1.5 billion of his net worth.
-
His former business manager, Thomas St. John, filed a $4.5 million lawsuit against him, and there have been reports of difficulty in serving him with the lawsuit.
-
Kim Kardashian revealed that her divorce from Kanye West was prompted by his behavior, which she found overwhelming, and she could no longer continue being his "clean-up crew".
-
Kanye Wests former attorneys had difficulty tracking him down to sever ties with him as a client, as he evaded their attempts to serve him with legally required notice.
-
Kanye West made repeated antisemitic statements, denied the Holocaust, and associated with alleged white supremacists, leading to widespread condemnation and the loss of valuable brand partnerships.
These events have contributed to a significant decline in Kanye Wests career in both fashion and music, leading to a fall from grace and a series of legal and personal challenges.
