Kanye West is no more. After filing paperwork to change his name, the rapper, born Kanye Omari West, finally got what he asked for, and will be legally known as"Ye."
Judge Michelle Williams granted the change on Monday in a California courthouse, after the rapper filed a petition to change his name in August, documents seen by CNN confirm. The Barbra Streisand Institute is launching at UCLAThe musician hinted at the change as far back as 2018, when he released his studio album"Ye," and then several months later tweeted:"the being formally known as Kanye West. I am YE.
Just change to 'Nyo'.
How is it pronounced?
Ok. Who cares about him at this point?
I'm having Fried Fish for dinner, with Grits.
Where has normal gone?
Trevor Noah said he understands why rapper Kanye West officially changed his name to Ye, & it involves Trump.“I get why he changed it, I mean, if I had gone super-MAGA like he did last year, I also would want to distance myself from myself too.”
what the feck 😂
The idiocy of being alive by some.

Everyone needs to think! Kanye is weird but brilliant. I’m assuming this has somthing to do with contracts or some sort of legalities. Thanks
I guess I’m Ni
You Twitter people are weird af def turning notifications off for ts
Oh ye of little faith.
Who gives a fuck?
Je rk?
🙄
Kanye Omari West est probablement un individu malade, ou à tout le moins perturbé. Il faut prier pour lui.
I will continue to refer to him as...irrelevant.
Imagine him being president. President Ye President Y'all
The guy should be on suicide watch
Manic af
Just waiting for him to drop final 2 letters so I don’t have to read/hear about him ever again 🤞
This guy
Sad.. dude needs help.
Good for him. Hope he won't change from being a man to woman tomorrow
No one, and I mean NO ONE cares. Surely there are far more newsworthy articles to post.
爷们！
That's a name that'll never be screamed out during sex.
now he has the Ye-yee ass haircut
Now his name sound Chinese.
Ye Kanye, I mean Ye
Ye as in ye all
When you have a lot of money and time on your hands 😂 good way to be though 🤔
Is it pronounced Yee or Yay?
Who gives a shit
Why is b.s. like this on CNN's page, this is why nobody takes you seriously. Leave junk like this for TMZ and report the damn news.
Who cares?
I’m changing my name to Hn
What a dumb idea I short my name as a nickname but I wouldn’t deedpool it a great rapper second best to Eminem but he’s crazy at times
Thanks, gotta keep up in this fast changing world. Hear ye, hear ye! You mean like that?
It’s not like his name really ever came across my conversations - so it probably won’t either with a new name!!! No one cares!
Tease us all with that first sentence why don't you...
You: ye I fell of my bike Kanye: did you call me? You: no I was just telling em how I fell of my bike. (basically a lot of confusion)
So now we gonna call the album Self Titled?
Does anyone really give a shit?
So what will his kids do now that kanyewest no longer exist? Will KimKardashian change her attached name too?
I’m sure there’s a deeper contractual reason behind this. Like when Prince did it.
just another way to keep himself in the limelight!
My guess is Ye is easier to spell than Kanye; hence the name change. Critical thinking and logic were never a strength “Kanye” exhibited.
Prince did it better.
Should have been Yo!
That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.
Who cares....The only 'Yee Yee' I know is GrangerSmith
God bless you (Kanye) Ye. Ye is part of his first name people.
He a billionaire [period]
I think Kanye needs Britney Spears’s father in his life right about now
That's cool. Everyone ripped Prince when he changed his name to that symbol. Big deal, leave the guy alone.
What’s the point of changing his legal name when he can just simply go by Ye 🤦🏾♀️
Well, there goes the rap world. It’ll take me about an hour to get over it.
How long did Ochcinco last? 2 seasons?
Y'all are weird and can't give him a break
we been calling him that.
Ye means leaf in Chinese. It's an old family name.
Pffft
Ah, yes. Kanye once again proving why everyone should hate him.
I thought the change might be to 'Desperately Seeking Attention'
So it's all about 'You' now? King James English in full effect.
Ye q
So he's the new P. Diddy now he's gonna change his name up every 5yrs or so
RushFamTourneys Legally loses mind
Yawn.
I’ll call him what I always have - overrated

JakeWeyers_3
I’m still calling him Kanye. I don’t entertain delusion. But I’m also a dog head in an ice cream cup. So there’s that.
Who the F*ck cares?
It would be to funny if he runs into lil John Yeah
YE IS A NAME OF YOUR CHOICE AND A VERY GOOD NAME OF YOUR CHOICE. I HOPE THE BEST FOR YOU IN THIS LIFE AND THE HEREAFTER. NO WORRIES. BE HAPPY AND LIVE LOVE AND LOVE LIFE...
Short for Yesterdays news.
So when he's elderly he'll become Ye Olde?
Since when did having Twitter give you all a masters degree in psychology? He’s just doing what he wants to and y’all are still finding a way to judge and ridicule a man that you don’t know. Fuck giving him help, maybe it’s some of you that need the help.
No one man should have all that Power
Who cares. How is this news worthy?
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
I’m going to change my name to Yo
maybe he thought he had to pay per letter?
Although his ego remains.
Looks like we’ll be skipping that one, too
Why would you start the headline like that
Didn't his momma give him that name?
Who gives a 💩💩💩
I don't know an-ye-one who cares...
No one wants to Hear Ye Hear Ye anymore.
Who gives a damn and why does even bother with this nonsense?
Who gives a royal s**t?
I didn't expect this
Who cares what name he calls himself?
“Who?” “You know, Kanye.”
Who cares!
He should have changed it to 'Huh?'
Who cares
Not goona lie, You tricked me into Rip phase with first line😅😅
JohnDiesattheEn When Michael Jackson went insane, he lost his whole nose. This guy only lost his KAMWEST.

Ridiculous name for a ridiculous person!
