«I am YE“. It was September 29, 2018 when Kanye West, for the first time, he announced on social networks the desire for change name. Today, more than three years after that cryptic tweet, the American rapper has succeeded: according to what reported by the US media, a court of The Angels accepted the artist’s request, which henceforth will legally be called only Ye, without surname.
“Why did I choose this very word? I think it is the most used in the Bible, where it means you you», He had declared in 2018, using those two letters as the title of his eighth album. A transformation that Kanye, therefore, had in mind for some time, but which apparently had been opposed by his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, perhaps fed up with his companion’s constant puns (see North West, the first daughter).
To be honest, on the official petition presented by the musician on August 24th, we read that the will for change arises from “personal reasons“. In any case, as emerges from the deed signed by the judge Michelle Williams Courts, no impediments to approval have been identified: on the new identity documents, therefore, it disappears Kanye Omari West to make room simply for Yes, his historic nickname.
Which he already used to collaborations – see the lucky line of shoes Yeezy made with Adidas – but not in formal contexts. Like the last ones US presidential election, for example, to which you obviously applied with his old name: among other things, according to rumors, it seems that the race in politics was one of the triggers of the break with Kim, his life partner for almost ten years.
Who knows that in changing the name there is (also) the desire to turn the page.
