Kanye Shares Favorite Music Amongst Instagram Rant
The Rant
If you missed the old Kanye, don’t worry; Ye’s back ranting on Instagram again. On September 1st, the rapper posted many screenshots of messages between him and Kim Kardashian, his children’s mother, regarding where their children are going to school on his account. The Instagram posts were deleted within a couple of hours, but he came back the next day letting everybody know he will not back down. He then went on making many other posts, some even bashing The Gap, Adidas, and other businesses. He also mentioned Pete Davidson, Kid Cudi, Daniel Cherry, and multiple adidas employees.
Throughout all of the bashing and anger towards (what seems like) the world, Kanye also posted his opinions on some of his favorite music.
