Goodbye Kanye West, hello Ye: judge approves name change request

A Los Angeles judge granted the 44-year-old's name change request, a communications officer at the Los Angeles Superior Court told AFP on Monday.The name change now means the Grammy-winning rapper and producer no longer has a last or middle name. His previous full name was Kanye Omari West."I believe 'ye' is the most commonly used word in the Bible, and in the Bible it means you. So it's I'm you, I'm us, it's us," he said that year in a radio interview.

"It went from being Kanye, which means the only one, to just Ye being a reflection of our good, our bad, our confused, our everything." Also in August, Ye released a two-hour, 27-track album "Donda," which dropped after weeks of delay and several stadium-filled public listening sessions. The spotlight recently has shone on Ye more for his personal life than his art, after his partner of nearly a decade, Kim Kardashian, filed for divorce earlier this year.

Before the news broke, their union had been dogged for months by reports of marital difficulties. Last year Ye launched an improbable and ultimately failed presidential bid.Our goal is to create a safe and engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions.

He just wants to be a Prince wannabe? He is not.

Perfect name for a nutcase.

As long as he's not trying to escape some sort of criminal protection I suppose.

Forgot the S or was it suppose to be No. Pfft

These are the goofy things people do when they don't have to worry about how they're going to pay rent.
