If you think there’s anything that Kanye can’t and won’t do, then you are probably correct because the iconic and outspoken artist has reportedly filed documents to legally change his name to “Ye.”
According to TMZ, it looks like Kanye West is taking a page out of Diddy’s book and looking to hold a new moniker for which he’s already started the legal process. On Tuesday, August 24, 2021, West asked a court to drop his government name of Kanye Omari West to his simple nickname “Ye.” The filing comes at an interesting time where Kanye is slated to have another installment of his ‘Donda’ listening, where he’s reconstructing his childhood Chicago home as a part of the set for the much-hyped event.
Although there hasn’t been any talk from Kanye about his hope for his name change, it does lead you to wonder why he would want the change since he’s always shown much pride in his family heritage and often name-checked himself in much of his earlier projects.

In more Ye news, the rapper also dropped a Stem player that will allow ‘Donda’ fans to customize their listening experience for the album.
